In the sport of golf, there is no standard teaching method or swing technique even though golf is known for overuse injuries. This prospective study was to analyze classic swing kinematics in comparison with the Free-Release method and to define a physiological golf swing. Two hundred eighty-three players, age 50-59 years, were included in the study. For both swing techniques, examination addressed swing visualization, center of pressure (COP), center of mass (COM), as well as pelvic movement in relationship to different standing widths. The position of the spine was evaluated in the frontal and lateral planes. Using the classic technique, no golfer was able to describe his swing parameters, which would be necessary for visualization and to tolerate physiological range of movement, whereas players using the Free-Release method were able to provide such a description. COP and COM showed pathological swing mechanics for the classic technique, whereas for the Free-Release method mechanics were physiological. We conclude that to prevent lumbar spine injury, the classic swinging technique, which is characterized by lateral shear forces, static and dynamic pelvic side bending while rotating with high force against the spine, and an unbalanced COM and COP, should be substituted by the Free-Release technique as a new physiological guideline.
在高尔夫运动中，尽管高尔夫运动以过度使用损伤而闻名，但却没有标准的教学方法或挥杆技术。这项前瞻性研究旨在分析经典挥杆运动学，并与自由释放法进行比较，以确定一种符合生理规律的高尔夫挥杆方式。该研究纳入了283名年龄在50至59岁之间的球员。对于这两种挥杆技术，研究考察了挥杆可视化、压力中心（COP）、质心（COM）以及与不同站立宽度相关的骨盆运动。在额状面和侧面评估脊柱的位置。使用经典技术时，没有高尔夫球手能够描述其挥杆参数，而这些参数对于可视化以及耐受生理运动范围是必要的，而使用自由释放法的球员能够提供这样的描述。对于经典技术，COP和COM显示出病理性的挥杆力学，而对于自由释放法，力学是符合生理规律的。我们得出结论，为预防腰椎损伤，应以自由释放技术作为新的符合生理规律的指导方法，取代以侧向剪切力、静态和动态骨盆侧屈、在旋转时对脊柱施加高力以及COM和COP不平衡为特征的经典挥杆技术。
