What is Chest Bend?

Chest Bend evaluates posture and understand how the chest changes its bend throughout the backswing.

Definition:  The forward/backward bend (tilt) of your chest. Vertical is zero and forward is positive, backward is negative. 

How to Apply Chest Bend

 📍 At Address — Check Forward Bend
Compare their forward bend at address to their Chest Lead Side Bend at the top to understand how their posture changes throughout the backswing.

📍 At the Top — Check Chest Bend
In the backswing, monitor Chest Bend to make sure it isn't too negative (extension) or too positive (flexion).
