ABOUT ALEX AND THE ART OF SIMPLE GOLF
-----------------------
Golf wins in the complication department. No other sport boasts the amount of gadgets, swing fixes, variations of balls, clubs, tees, courses, not to mention weather!, however, it is not as difficult as you have been led to believe.

But that is absolute rubbish. Im sure you have realized that by now because despite your best efforts you have not seen significant improvement.
It’s not your fault though!

Excellent advice explains a lot,between rang and course just relax.. Thanks
This was fantastic. I tried this today and was relaxed. My shots were longer and ball striking was so much better. The trouble holes were where when I tried to hit it farther and I would hold my breath and tighten up. I hit more fairways and greens than I have had in the longest time. Thanks for the video.
Very good. I have studied the golf swing and there is always something else to consider. I’m seventy years old and I just finished 18 holes of golf here in Brooklyn NYC . I left the golf course tired and exhausted. I hit a lot of good golf shots and several miserable ones. I naturally worry if I can continue to learn further advanced techniques. It seems possible to continue to learn about the golf swing. Today I truly believe that I need to control my breathing. If I do then I think I can walk off the course without being very tired. New habits take time to adjust to. We are stronger and more prepared to make an effort that requires strength if we take a deep breath. If we are exhaling then we are losing strength.
Wonderful. And yes I think this is going to help you a lot. Keep at it.
Excellent advice. Thanks!!
Thanks for the video I really appreciate the advice.
Greatest tip ever really works well at the range not taken it out to play yet
Great message!
Very good video, thank you.
Excellent. Combining breathing / open mouth and the thought "the ball is soft" allows me to hit effortless "missiles".
It makes more difference than most realize
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf I just began to realize it. Better late than never.
I tried this and it works!
Really good advice. And simple. Thanks.
It really does help. Cheers!
Easy, Stressful!!!
gr8 advice that i seem to always forget. my shoulders and legs can tense up and what killers either one of those can be! thx for the reminder
Keep at it:)
This is a great video because you are essentially putting things in the correct perspective ... All the swing tips, technological innovation, etc mean nothing if you get so "tweeked" that you can't breathe ... I call swinging with tension or being chocked up the 'FRED FLINSTONE" complex ... because it represents inflexibility, rigidity, and stubbornness.
I like that!!
Tried it yesterday and it really helped. I hit some great shots with this technique. Thanks very much.
Great to hear!
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf what I really like with the 3 breaths before I drive is that I know that I will have driven the ball after 3 breaths, and this relaxes me as I was overthinking my drive swing and my mind just ran away with itself. I've been focusing more on breathing in general since your wise words, so thanks very much.
Thank you
You're welcome
Genuis
Good
Excellent video.
Glad you like it and hope it helps!

Friends, you do know I get a little cooky in searching for the “secret” to sports performance, especially when it comes to golf and tennis. Recent chatter about athletes getting into the zone with breathing techniques and pre-shot routines, there’s got to be something there. We witnessed the miracle Mickelson pulled off at the PGA last May, apparently it had much to do with his ability to eliminate distractions through breathing and meditation. Why can’t us mere mortals use techniques to keep doubt from creeping into our backswings and crimping our follow throughs?
While science has proven that deep breathing slows our pulse and removes tension, and most of us have heard about incorporating breathing into our pre-shot routines, I had not, until recently, found a granular description of how to consciously incorporate breathing and swinging. I spoiled a couple of rounds last year trying to breathe in on the take away and exhale on the followthrough. While there were moments of glory, doubt and double bogeys won the day. What was I missing? f you do the math it doesn’t add up to breathe in on the take away and out on the strike. The average golf swing is just a little over a second. A resting inhale (1.5) and exhale (1.5) is about 3 seconds? Too fast. What was I thinking?
I found gold on the Art of Simple Golf channel, the clip on Breathing to Release your Golf Swing. He doesn’t get to the secret until 4:30, “On the out breath we make our backswing.” There it is. “As you breathe out, start your swing.”
Let’s be clear. I have no visions of becoming a scratch golfer. I am in pursuit of joy. Of solid contact. The feeling of a well struck ball. The satisfaction that I’ve committed 100% of my mental and physical capabilities to the shot. That I’ve exterminated doubt. I am in pursuit of being all in and letting the balls fly and roll where they may.
Since it is not usually golf weather around here in December I started experimenting on my paddle serve a couple of weeks ago. Going into the motion just as I started the exhale. It took time to get synched up but I found a rhythm and also discovered that focusing on the breathing quieted the “voices” in my head. The number of faults declined and pleasure was up. My ability to commit increased. What more can we ask for than commitment?
And then a gloriously warm December 31 appeared on the weather app and it was time. Time to either spoil another round of golf with a failed breathing experiment or time to breathe into commitment. There were some wobbles. Some missed putts, topped approaches, and wrong clubbing, and I thought briefly of giving up, but I was putting for birdie inside of 10’ on one and three; didn’t miss a fairway all day, and rocketed a 6-iron on 11 that looked like it might go draino before flying the green. What a pleasure.
Breath in. Slow exhale. Breath in. Exhale and, GO. Bye-bye ball. So much fun. The boogey man was at rest, locked in the trunk back in the parking lot.
As a suggestion, you can practice breathing anytime and anywhere. It is interesting to pay attention, discover patterns and make adjustments. The practice gets delicate with putting and chipping. I think it has to do with the targets getting smaller and the rewards, or penalties, for making missing being greater.
But I stuck with it, utilizing the usual visualization techniques, seeing the spots where I wanted the ball to land and travel, before dropping into the rhythm of the breath. I finished the last three holes with delicate chips and drained a 10-footer for par on 18. And while pars are nice, the true beauty of the adventure was melting away the angst, flushing fear.
The experiment will continue. And to my fellow golfers, I ask, can we increase our pleasure in the game by improving our breathing? Can it be that simple?
Great. Is correct that we breath in when back swing and breath out when down swing? Thanks
Personally I find that my swing is much more free flowing if I start the swing after I have fully exhaled all my breath rather than exhaling on the backswing. This has certainly cured my shank so can't ask for much more!!!
Curing shank is a good start lol
I have been exhaling fully and holding my breath through the swing... With this technique, I assume you still hold your breath once fully exhaled or do you aim to complete the fullswing back and through before you have exhaled fully and begin an intake?
Here’s the thing… you have to test it. If you are too aware of your breath it’s not doing what it’s supposed to. Try it on backswing only. Try in and out. Holding it can cause tension
Well Alex I think science has proved that we die if we stop breathing 😂👍
Great info. I used to just take one deep breath behind ball and one practice swing . Now ill incorporate two more when i address ball....
It will help to trigger
I think your headline should read: "Breathe to Release Your Golf Swing". A Breath is a single inhalation/exhalation and this word is conveying the opposite of the message you are trying to communicate.
You are right.. although the "Trigger" to start the swing is a breath.
Terrible advice for beginners. Not only the body isn't relaxed (it is on breath out, but not on hold after that), but that's now something that I have now to add to my routine, even though I was doing it pretty much naturally and without thinking before watching this. It's like I don't know how to breath anymore :D
It may be a good advise once you master your routine and can back and forth swing within 2 sec, otherwise, don't try this.
I'm trying to unlearn it xD
Valid points. And golf advice, like anything in life has to be filtered personally.. to see if it's what you need.. Most are too tense and a very simple routine is key.
