If you’ve ever finished a round of golf feeling like your lower back was held together by nothing but hope and athletic tape, you aren’t alone. We’ve all been there, standing on the 15th tee, trying to summon the energy for one more big drive, only to feel a “sluggish” sensation in our midsection. You swing, but the power just isn’t there.
