Hey there Weetbix, loving this thread. I've been thorough the screening process myself and have started my PST's. For me this is the way to go. I had been reading up on the mechanics and had lessons but still could not get the idea of putting my swing together. I'd have good days but couldn't work out why the bad ones were so bad. With Bioengine I've learned how the whole thing goes together and have a solid set of PST's that are in a specific order to train my body to perform this kinetic link with no thoughts getting in the way. I'm striking the ball more consistently than ever.
It was quite amazing what I learned about my swing from the screening too and just how out of whack it was, I was making all sorts of compensations that were causing dire shots.
I was skeptical at first but keen enough about golf to try, I certainly made the right choice and highly recommend this process to anyone who wants to play better golf.
your arms decelerating isn't something you physically try and do in the golf swing, If you try to achieve arm deceleration physically you will hit the ball fat.
The arms slow down they don't actually come to a complete stop.
Each body segment accelerates and decelerates. This must occur for the law of conservation to work.The reason for deceleration of each segment is so speed can be transferred to the next body segment.
In order for this to work you effectively you need 6-M-1 (kinetic link) conservation of momentum and Muscular loading.
If you have all these combinations each body segment will accelerate and decelerate and pass speed to next segment.
(This happen naturally) This continues up through your kinetic Link (6-M-1). Hips,upper body,arms,until distal end speed is transferred to the club.
This all happens naturally when you have trained your body how to create conservation of momentum and muscular loading.
These events you can apply physically by going to the practice fairway grinding balls.
Regarding the SSC this is complicated topic to speak about and for people to understand SSC and muscular loading I would need to write a 50 page essay.There's mountains of information you need to learn, to develop an understanding how this works in the golf swing.

What do you mean by this below????
Absolutely. Sooner the better. Somewhere around you right ear would work best for you I suspect
Not sure what you mean here ???

I agree with much of this but not that deceleration is needed to transfer momentum to the next acceleration stage.
I feel that my own Pivot supplies all of the Work. I also feel that the work that the Pivot provides is separate but synchronized with the Downstroke Acceleration sequence of my Power Package.
My Pivot components don't slow or stop and are sequenced to provide continuous motion and power to the Swing. My Hips lead and power the Shoulders throughout the Downstroke. My Shoulders trail my hips at least until the Finish Swivel.
Foot, knee and Hip Actions are sequenced. Keep in mind that Foot loading is different for Straight and Circle Delivery Paths. So, the Pivot will look different, sequence differently and provide different work. Foot loading is vastly important. Without sensing and sequencing the Ground pressures through my feet and allowing my feet to increase and decrease these pressures, It's difficult to move the Hips very far and it's not possible for the Hips to drive the shoulders through Impact and beyond. Ground Pressures are very powerful and yet can be very sensitive and delicate around the greens. The Sequence doesn't change but the pressures and spacing and pacing of the components changes to fit the shot at hand. It's almost unconscious.
If there is no deceleration then lag/wrist cock would be sustained until well past the ball, and you wouldn't actually hit it! The arms have to decelerate for the wrist cock to be released surely?? It works the same for the rest of the sequence, hips/shoulders/arms yes? That's how I understand it.

In all respect how do you know you dont(should) decelerate each segment, hips, trunk, arms, as part of your swing? My understanding of summation of segments for increasing velocity etc is dependent on each prior segment slowing to enhance the transfer to the next segment.
Do you think you dont decelerate or have you measured data that says you dont?
Release (lag/wrist cock) is NOT caused by deceleration. That is a myth.
