"Speed Chain"
 

Obviously if you used it - it might have a particular benefit that you were focusing on for swinging. However, that said- their is little to NO logic in the article- fast clubhead speed means high hand speed? Increasing your strength doesn't increase your handspeed? Then he shows some behemoth long drive champion? I mean the article is all over the place- Very poorly done. I didn't really look at the product besides the video link that Lynn provided, however, if you wanted to work on that excercise why wouldn't you just grab your garden hose and save some money?

A garden hose would not provide anywhere close to the amount of variable resistance that the chain provides.

I agree...the article is a bit spastic...but I think there are some points to be taken away from it.

I have been lifting weights and stretching for the last 4-5 years and have gotten MUCH stronger and more flexible. However, my clubhead speed has not moved a bit in that same time span. So, for me at least, being stronger and more flexible has not translated into faster clubhead speed.

Guys, try this instead...

IMO, You have far potential to increase your distance by improving your Impact Aligmnents than you do by increasing your strength. That said, if you already have good alignments anything you can do to improve your body can be a plus to your game.

justin, would you but the 'swing faster and throw harder' series?

Amen . . .

Slinger,

Could you 'do the math' for us? Please tell us how this program translates into 'more distance' -- especially for the 'non-athletes' among us. Thanks!

ohhhhhh

Over the Top
 

Sorry...this is a fad type of training aid...no way will this catch on. No way will you find me in my backyard swinging something like that...I'll scare the neighbors, the birds, all of mother nature, holy cow. This is not an indoors training aid for the average home owner either.

Junk
 

The whole article is junk- for me. I just can't even get motivation to read it again- and I just skimmed it the first time. That said - I'm certainly not saying that given the proper perspective that one might be able to pull out a couple of perspectives that might be helpful. So what are the points that you would say should be taken away from it.
