The Secret to Hip Rotation Power (Fix This Common Golf Mistake)

Are your hips actually rotating the way elite golfers do?

In this Athletic Motion Golf podcast, Mike Granto & Shuan Webb are diving into one of the most misunderstood and underrated parts of the golf swing—internal and external hip rotation. This isn't just about turning — it's about how your knees and pelvis work together to unlock real rotational power.

Most golfers (even the decent ones) get this wrong. They rotate everything together like a block of wood... and it kills their speed, power, and consistency. We're going to show you why that's a mistake—and how pros like Rory and Ludvig Åberg are doing it differently.

Using years of GEARS data and real swing analysis from thousands of amateurs and pros, we reveal the real reason your hips might be stuck, and how to fix it with just a small shift in how you stretch your pelvis away from your femurs.

This podcast is a must for golfers who want to rotate better, hit it further, and stop sliding all over the place. It's based on biomechanical truth, not Instagram fluff.

Mike & Shaun break down:

• How your lead and trail knees SHOULD move during backswing and downswing
• The role of femur stretch vs. lazy hip turn
• Why most amateurs are doing the opposite of what pros do
• A simple check from face-on video to know if you're screwing it up
• And why fixing this will help your swing without endless drills or reps
