Abstract
A comprehensive review of literature was performed for each stage of the golf swing.
For each stage we identified what muscles are being targeted and what injuries are caused.
The table in the Center of this poster outlines the muscles targeted during each swing phase, their anatomical locations in both professional and amateur golfers, and the exercises that help prevent common injuries.
Our proposed method includes understanding the relationship between muscle activation patterns and common swing-related injuries, allowing us to better understand how technique and conditioning influence injury prevention.
By employing these methods, we can develop targeted training and rehabilitation programs to enhance performance and minimize injury across varying skill levels.
