Golf Muscles - Timing - Golf Mechanics: The Key To A Powerful Golf Swing

Golf swing power is truly sought after by many golfers short and tall. A powerful golf swing can be easily accomplished if you’re standing 6ft tall over the golf ball. Knowing the right mechanics of the golf swing, along with the right timing is essential. If you take two golfers of the same height, the exact same swing, same golf club and ball, the results in distance would probably be the same. If you take the same scenario and one golfer is approximately 6ft. tall, and the other approximately 5ft. tall, the advantage would be to the taller person. You’re probably saying, no kidding Sherlock. A taller person creates a longer and bigger swing span, which in turn generates more club head speed. Unleashing a huge drive can be monstrous if all golf mechanics and timing are in sync for a fairly tall person. So how does a shorter golfer stand to compete? The answer would probably lie in the golf muscles of a shorter golfer. It doesn’t necessarily mean you have to go out and bench press 400 lbs everyday. By exercising your upper and lower golf muscles two or three times a week, you can make a world of difference. The golf muscles that need to be exercised would be the legs, thighs, and whole upper portion of the body. The upper portions of the body are the main coil of the golf swing, with the arms and wrist getting the most exercise. As these same muscles are used most to guide and control the weight of the golf club through the motion of the golf swing. The lower portion of the body is strengthened to reinforce the upper portion of the golf swing. There are many books and videos on the Internet that address these exercises. Golfers that prefer to exercise outdoors and are not sure of the appropriate exercises to use should take the exercise out on the practice range hitting golf balls. By hitting golf balls at the practice range, you will be exercising the important golf muscles naturally, and greatly improve your golf swing at the same time. Have you heard of golf muscle memory? It is a part of the brain that remembers a movement. Putting it another way, have you felt a muscle say, stop right there? This same part of the brain will tell moving parts of your body how far you can take it, so you do not injure yourself. It also signals for the timing of certain muscles to kick in and take over, if your latter part of the brain were paying attention. It would also remember good habits and bad habits in the golf swing. One must be careful in their practice routine on avoiding the bad habits. Practicing regularly will exercise these certain muscles and train them for further swing improvement in proper moves and timing. Your golf muscles will take the golf mechanics and timing to a higher level of power by exercising them over and over again. With regular exercise and practicing the golf mechanics and timing of the golf swing, both short and tall players can compete on the same level. To out distance your taller competitors, it would help to pack a few extra pounds of golf muscle behind your golf swing. The same would apply for the taller golfer to stay ahead of the crowd.About the Author: Running a tee time site where you can find Discount Tee Times and more!

Buying Your Kayaking Equipment - A Beginners Guide

Buying Your Kayaking Equipment - A Beginners Guide

Having a new kayak is a fun, exciting adventure. But it is important to know about the right accessories for you new hobby.
If you are going to buy a kayak, you have to think long and hard about your kayak equipment. The equipment is significantly more important than the kayak itself. You should always buy kayaking equipment before you buy the boat. That way, you will buy the best equipment and will not buy cheaply made items because you spent all your money on the boat.
If you don't have the best equipment, you will have a kayaking experience that is far less enjoyable than it otherwise would have been. Here is an equipment list:
Life jackets Foot wear Wet suit Paddles Paddle float Spray skirts Dry bags Kayak
Each of those items are completely essential to buy if you plan to own and use your kayak. Without the right equipment, you will enjoy your kayaking experience less. The most essential piece of equipment is the paddles. Without dependable paddles, you will have trouble paddling, and you will not enjoy your kayaking adventure as much as you would have.
Wet suits may not be necessary for everyone. Wet suits are necessary only if you plan to kayak in cold weather and cold water. This is usually for professional kayakers and extreme-kayaking fans.
It's important to remember life jackets! This is a vital piece of equipment. You could get into rough water or roll in your kayak and find yourself with no way of keeping your head out of the water. Not wearing one is against the law and dangerous to your safety. Make sure that your flotation devices fit you and your passengers properly and that you have extra one in the boat.
When you have taken care of these kayaking requirements, you will be prepared to take your boat on the water!
Hopefully this article will help you on your way to enjoying this great sport.

Ron Artest Saga: Brawl, Trade Rumor, Suspension, CD

Ron Artest Saga: Brawl, Trade Rumor, Suspension, CD

Ron Artest, forward of the Indiana Pacers has been known for his wild behavior. However, in the past two NBA seasons it has been worse then ever. We all now the story, last years incident in Detroit, the infamous brawl when a fan threw a cup a Artest, who then jumped into the stands followed by teammate Stephen Jackson to fight with Detroit fans. What most of us don’t know is that the problems started before that.
In the 2003-2004 season only played 73 games. Some missed sue to injury, but seven due to suspension for flagrant fouls. The NBA rule is you are allowed five flagrant fouls for the whole season. After that you are suspended five games for the first five flagrant fouls and one game for each additional foul later in the season. Artest broke the record that year for flagrant fouls. His sixth flagrant foul came five seconds into the game which he returned from his initial five game suspensions and he was ejected after only five seconds. Artest had perhaps his best statistic season of his career winning the Defensive Player of The Year Award.
In the 2004-2005 seasons he was suspended for the final 73 games of the regular season, including playoffs, with out pay for the Brawl in Detroit. Earlier in that year Artest took two games off willingly because he wanted to promote his rap CD. He lost $5 Million dollars of salaries that year due to suspensions.
In the 2005-2006 season thing started out great. However it soon fell apart as Artest felt that Coach Rick Carlisle was not implementing him into the offense. He felt that no small forward could guard him and that he wasn’t welcome in Indiana anymore. Shortly after he requested a trade. The Pacers agreed and have discussed Artest with many teams. If they can’t trade him, then they won’t play him at all for the reminder of the year.
As of December 17th, in a latest twist of events, he indicated that he wants to remain a Pacer. "I should have been a man and spoken with coach [Rick Carlisle] about my differences with him," Artest told the Indianapolis Star. "Yes, I would like to return”.
It seems as though Ron Artest has become the Terrell Owens of the NBA. This is why teams like Detroit and San Antonio have won the last two championships. There is no ego on the team, no problems, media, saga’s; all they do is play basketball. Sure it may be boring, but you have to win at any cost in all sports.
In conclusion if I were a GM for a team I would consider Ron Artest for a second. He is two concerned about his own life. He have basically ruined two seasons for the Pacers, why will the next season be any different.

A Clean Car Is Cool

A Clean Car Is Cool
Cleaning a car: a piece of cake, right? Without doubt, if you follow the procedures suggested by the Car Care Council. While it's the most basic procedure in Lambo Cars care, it does be worthy of some thought. The primary step in cleaning the car is to wash it. Give it a good rinsing from top to bottom, including the wheels and inside the fenders. And have a habit that always cleans the tires and wheels before washing the body, and don't use the same cloth for both. This way you'll avoid contaminating the vehicle's paint with debris from the wheels and tires.
Then always use a good tire cleaner with a stiff brush, to improve your tires' appearance even if you don't have white sidewalls or white letter tires.
Next thing is to wash the wheels with a wheel cleaner that removes the brake dust, which often blackens the front wheels. Application of these cleaners varies, so be sure and follow the directions on the container.
Now it's time to wash the body. Use a product sold specifically for automobiles. (Household cleaners can strip the wax from the paint and damage the finish.) Starting at the top, wash one section at a time, thoroughly rinsing away the soap. Work your way down toward the front, sides, and rear of the vehicle. Clean the rear last since it usually has the largest accumulation of dirt and grime, which can contaminate the wash mitt. Wash the inside door jams about once a month.
To rinse, remove the spray nozzle from the hose. Starting at the top let the water cascade down the surfaces of the vehicle.
Then, to avoid water spotting, dry with a chamois or other product made for this purpose.
Now is an excellent time for waxing, which not only protects the finish but also makes subsequent washing easier. Before proceeding, look for foreign particles on the paint. Use a Lambo Kits(car) cleaner, available at auto supply stores, to remove contaminants imbedded in the paint.
Once the surface is clean, apply the wax, following the manufacturer's instructions for application of the product. Often they recommend not using the product in direct sunlight.
Keeping your vehicle clean, while it doesn't require a lot of effort, says the Council, it does foster a feeling of pride and accomplishment.
