If my forehand occasionally goes into the bottom of the net, do you think my wrist and arm pronate incorrectly. I saw a slow-mo of Federer's forehand and it seemed the racket fae angle didn't close right after contact like I believe mine does. Would love to hear your insight.

Makes perfect sense.. swing as fast as you can until you’re able to keep the ball in play. You are saying your form will improve if you find the fastest swing path. It’s all a matter of much trial and error.

I like this video. For me, my whole world of hitting an accurate serve was when I had the technique to hit pain free, and particularly the slice out wide - like wide wide where you have to toss the ball way out in front and to the right a little and crush the side of ball. It was also because on the slice you can sort of toss the ball to the right and therefore your shoulder has a lot more space and is less likely to get hurt, which is where my serve accuracy problems start - stiff shoulders, which leads to me hesitating on my serve which is the mother of problems when it comes to hitting targets. From there I could quickly adapt it to hit the flat serve out wide on the other side - even using the same toss as the slice serve… my point is that serve accuracy in my personal journey started with the big ass slice out wide, and just 100% getting that right before focusing on the other targets. For me, it just unlocks everything, and I think other players have their own method to get that confidence too

Good instruction. Wrist cocked. Didn't know that. Thanks.

So simple. I will be doing it! Thanking you.

Great great advice, thank you so much! Such a simple concept with huge implications; ensures truly competitive shot AND fixes fundamental errors!

A whole new approach but very very logical and as you well say, by that you can't lie your tennis skills or your tennis level. It will tell you the truth right to your face unlees you correct what's necessary.

so why are russians better in tennis?

Nobody interested to understand theory in tennis rather you show something 😂

No bullshit and facts only. Subscribed.

Only talk no action.

I like it. I need to spend more time on serves and targets in my lessons. Most of the time in my serve lessons is spent on developing proper technique. But I need to spend some time on targets too. I taught for Russian tennis academy, Gorin, in California. You heard of Dmitry Tursunov? He was one of the best juniors in the world. So strong. Nice guy too.

That’s half of the ready position. I like it so far.

How reps/sets should I do of these?

Finally a great tennis video with a great ready position. Not the old school way that makes you look ridiculous!
