3 Mobility Drills to Improve Your Rotation

If your swing feels stiff or restricted, it might be time to focus on mobility. These three drills target the hips, thoracic spine, and shoulders—key areas for rotational power and follow-through.

1. Half-Kneeling Thoracic Rotations   Start in a half-kneeling position with one knee down. Place both hands behind your head and rotate your upper body toward the front leg. Repeat 8 reps each side. This opens up your mid-back and improves torso rotation.

2. 90/90 Hip Switches   Sit on the floor with knees bent in front of you. Rotate both legs to one side, then switch to the other. Do 10 reps. This drill helps loosen up your hips and improves internal/external rotation.

3. Shoulder Wall Slides   Stand with your back against a wall, arms in a “goal post” position. Slowly slide your arms up and down the wall. Do 10 reps. This improves shoulder mobility and posture at setup.
