i know im randomly asking but does someone know a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot my account password. I love any tips you can give me.
@Dwayne Jayce instablaster :)
@Eugene Javion I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Kevin is a fantastic teacher. Great job Kevin! Thanks!
He is, we're super happy to have him on board! Thanks for watching :-) -Ian
Great choice!
Appreciate your support, Miguel! -Kevin
The most important thing that you do in my opinion is that you do what you said so everybody can watch the way to do it. That's very important to me and it's an excellent pedagogical tool to understand every racquet motion easily. Great job friends tennis lovers.
Thank you for this channel. It has helped me better my serve as far as getting it into the box, as I practice more on getting it into the box consistently, I'll be looking to add accuracy
Thanks!
you've helped me so much, all your videos are really well explained and you hit the nail on the head
i'm tired of Ian calling out my BS
💩💩💩
@@EssentialTennis Lmao
wow, just wow. SUCH great tips, even for advanced players to practice their serves!! Thanks so much guys, timeless as always.
Refreshing to see nice fact based tennis information, always the most helpful form of coaching.
Kevin is a great coach. Awesome that he's on the team.
He is, we're all super excited to have him on board! -Ian
One of the most important thing in tennis is INTENTION. I think it helps a lot when serving and not only. For the forhand and backhand it's the same story.. that's why when we change our minds the ball goes nowhere. Am I right?
I agree completely, Catalin. Lots of players don't aim at all, or they pick a super general target like "the box" which doesn't help them improve their precision. Intention and specificity are key! -Ian
You guys are great teachers. Thanks for the lesson!
Very helpful, thank you
Excellent video. Thanks for this. Will try out and report
What a useful tip, so easy to understand and to practice a very remarkable tennis lesson. Thank you very much.
Fantastic well done one of the best explanation I came a cross “timing is the key “ also if I could explain the way the racket supposed to be hold on the serve we know is the continental grip but the way holding the racket is important to so we can make that pronation on the contact. Thank you
great guidance and information - thanks
Thank you. Very helpful for me
Mind blown. Thank you. Picking up the sport... and needed this
Glad to hear it was helpful, Ikani!
Many thanks for sharing your experience!
You're very welcome, Noushin! -Ian
So well explained
From supination to pronation part of the serve, the hitting side of the racket rotates from left perpendicular to almost right perpendicular which gives you a wide left to right range of target options. Going back to my question do you "lock" the correct angle, momentarily to get a better chance of hitting to your intended target.. Of course after you feel that you have made contact with the ball, you would aggressively pronate to execute the serve smoothly or even course correct "bend" the ball back down, if needed. The reason why I mention this is that this is how I hit my western forehand sometimes....ie when the ball is low to the forehand I slightly open the racket and "lock" that angle in order to clear the net but finish with heavy topspin to make sure it stays in..
Keep up the great videos! You guys rock!
Appreciate you, Matt! -Ian
Awesome tips!
im a high schooler, just started playin tennis for like 1 week and this really helps. I also had a tendency to hit to hard on back hand forehand and sometimes even my server
Another brilliant video. Thanks guys!
You're very welcome, Stuart!
Thanks for making this video it really helped me
Good to hear! What part was the most helpful? -Ian
Bring Kevin back without delay. You guys work great together.
He's not going anywhere, David!
Great video!!
Very helpful
Coach.... great video on serve placement. Jim
Thanks, James! Which part was most helpful to you? -Ian
Sy sangat senang dengan hadirnya cara2 served yg baik jadi sy bisa belajar dan tau tata caranya yg benar. Walau sy baru bisa play tenis di usia 43 Tahun, tenis lap itu olah raga yg asik!!!
I really cant believe this actually works. Thx to that i became runner up with allot ofe aces
this is just awesome!
As a junior player I used to have seemingly insurmountable problems with the inconsistency of my serve. Sometimes I was able to make 2 or 3 double faults per game (that is, when it went long enough...). It was a huge drawback - a real show stopper - super frustrating, embarrassing and devastating. I had numerous trainers who all failed to help me. In my desperation I went an endless number of afternoons serving hundreds of serves each session to finally only hurt my shoulder. No success. My serve was still an unreliable piece of crap.
My problem was: I didn't feel the serve. Serving felt like numb. I had no connection with the area I was targeting. The sort of feel that we usually have when playing ground strokes or volleys was completely absent. A Tennis player normally feels the target as if he was connected to it by invisible wires - at least that's how I perceive this.
After thinking and analyzing my problem I finally decided to return back to the very basics. I did exactly what is shown in the 2nd half of this video. I called it "laying wires" to relearn my serve and to develop a feel for the targets from ground up. My serve started to improve noticeably. I wished I had someone teaching me like you do when it actually really mattered :-)
This video I'd consider the single most important video on how to learn to serve I've ever seen. And it's the best set of trainer instructions on how to practice service targeting I've ever heard.
Damn you have nice paint job on your rackets! Loving the black and gold.
What I love about this first drill, is that my back yard is just big enough that I can do the drill at home. If I were at a tennis court, the temptation would be just too great to swing away hitting full serves. However at home it is easy to stick to the drill, and even enjoy it
good work guys
Good teaching
I am an ET fan Kevin ! I didn't realize it until you said it ;)
Hi Team ETBesides the muscle memory that is also dependent on the speed for the racket swing (or maybe more subconscious awareness of arm and racket position and correlation between them ). I guess that the accuracy also depend on how consistently we have the same distance to the ball and how much we jump in to the court (besides up) and how much we uncoil. So the angel between upper torso and the direction we swing the arm towards the ball. Or maybe experience and good ball judgement makes us able to jump the right distance, to uncoil the same amount and have position the torso in the same angle towards the target. But given that even the pros dont have a perfect ball toss and conditions can make it impossible to be very accurate anyways but the seem to have good accuracy even in tough conditions so I guess all body parts through the chain will try to adjust if we are relaxed and focused enough to allow it. Thx for posting videos here!
oh I do really want to learn
Great teacher,,from Indonesia,Selayar Island👍👍
Love your work ET. I came from nothing but now I can hit every shot available in tennis...I just have to be good at it 🤦🏿♂️. Big up and thank you from South Africa.
When will SA let foreign tourists back in? Any idea?
Great video, thank you very much ET team
You're very welcome, thanks for watching! Where do you play? -Ian
I am from Ukraine, Mariupol. Your instructions are always a big help for me.
Love it, thanks for your support! -Ian
@@EssentialTennis great Work i have won several tournaments Because of you guys.Keep up the good work!!😄
Good drill
In tennis I struggle in the eastern grip because I don't know how to use it and how to quickly change it in a match. So can the ES Team help me
Awesome ✌😀👏👏
Thanks for watching, Sam! -Ian
Nice video
Good video
Following you from a long a time and have to say you're videos are always the best
Appreciate that very much, Brood! Which ones have been most helpful to you? -Ian
Essential Tennis - Lessons and Instruction for Passionate Players what do you mean by "which ones" are talking about which video or which coach or something else
Which of our videos has been the most helpful to you? -Ian
Essential Tennis - Lessons and Instruction for Passionate Players your mind game related video helped me the most
Your how to stop losing from worrse opponent, how to calm at court (Kirby), how to frustrate your opponent legally and other mind game related videos helped me the most
Is that golf coach Dan Whittaker ? Thank you for the serving tip by the way.
Hey Ian, you are right, but focus comes into play. If i focus and aim for the T i will hit the T, but if im not focused, i cant really hit my mark. Its like hitting your serve, but thinking of the T as a general area...
1. Accuracy comes from the angle of the racket face. Where the face points the ball goes.
- a 12-degree change is enough for the ball to go from the T zone to the corner
- Practice slowly sending the ball to the center line and make sure muscle memory remember.
2. Drills. Slice the box into 4 vertical parts.
- Start at the end of your serve box and work your way back.
Love how every tennis instruction is a secret
What racket is that
nice roof cover court
Ian, during the swing do you ever "lock" the angle once you feel it is correct value....or do you time the swing to reach angle as it naturally rotates from left to right for a righty?
Great question, Matthew. I would strongly, strongly encourage you to NOT try and "lock" anything in place. Doing so will dramatically increase tension, which will kill your smoothness and efficiency. For me, it's most definitely a matter of timing. -Ian
Thanks sir it really helped me I m 11
Great to hear, Dimple!
what is your rocket>
Watching from Pagadian city, Philippines
Is it stinky there?
Seems stupid, but I loved you called BS on excuses. "BS" really made your point and made it memorable.
You guys are great. I wish you could see my improvement
We wish we could, too, Reza!
What kind of racket is that one
How can I hit the ball from right to left if I'm left handed?
.. problem is that on pronation face changes...
Good golfing analogy but in golf the face closure rate through impact zone for good players is slow. Why is it so fast in tennis? Surely, too much emphasis on timing and less consistency day to day?
Esa raqueta de color negro esta hermosa. ❤❤❤💣🙀🙀💰💰
4:29
*squid game music starts playing*
Is there any merit to this habit or quirk that I have in my tennis game?
Whenever I want to place a serve, I just look at and think about the spot I want to serve to, and more often than not it goes there. I don’t feel like I’m doing anything different. What’s going on here? Am I just stupid? Lol
Kevin.. you pulled a KD. come on man..
What's a KD?
Can make a video about how to change the direction of the ball accurately
Do you mean change between different targets or take a ball that's coming at you from one direction and it hit it somewhere else? -Ian
Essential Tennis - Lessons and Instruction for Passionate Players hit it somewhere else
Essential Tennis - Lessons and Instruction for Passionate Players ypu don't particularly make video on this topic this is so stupid but currently my biggest problem in tennis is to give the ball direction. I have a pretty spin and power but i struggle with hitting the ball back down the line most of the time i hit it down the middle.
Thanks
Check this video out, I think its what you're looking for, let me know: th-cam.com/video/VB6xrbXfSM8/w-d-xo.html
Essential Tennis - Lessons and Instruction for Passionate Players yes thanks that video helped
5:46
Is kevin's miss fully intentional? 😅
😂 He'll never tell!
just curious, where's ira
what is the racquet that Kevin has? Sweet!
Not sure.....I'll have to ask him. -Ian
That's not Kevin's racquet, it's been on ET videos before Kevin showed up. Does Ira have a sponsorship with Babolat or he doesn't care. Over 100K subscribers, get your act together Wilson, cheap bastards!
My serves are either in the net, too short or toooooo long, almost always in no mans land almost touching the baseline. I cant get the curve that can be seen in serves, it is flat which makes it much harder to place. Make a video about that or explain to me what to do. ill be thankful.
Be sure to check out this video on the topspin serve, Maktube: th-cam.com/video/anF9ZtSFZI4/w-d-xo.html
thank you soo much, really needed that video, cant wait to use it next time i hit the court, but try to make a video specifically for this. Thank you so much.
Maktube - What do you mean by "but try to make a video specifically for this"? Which part of the topspin serve do you still need help with? We probably have a video for it already :-) -Ian
I need the whole path of the racquet, from the trophy pose to the contact point. But thanks Ian for all the support. Hope you can recommend me a video for this. My consistency in serve is also bad if you can recommend a video for it.
Check out this one: th-cam.com/video/N9LVhIXo75g/w-d-xo.html
🙏🙏🙏👍😎🤙
Hey Ian, why do we use continental grip for a serve? I use eastern and my serve is still pretty accurate and fast.
Happy you've found something that works for you, but your serve would be even better with a continental grip! This video explains why: th-cam.com/video/FKtqaKjZVPs/w-d-xo.html
Essential Tennis - Lessons and Instruction for Passionate Players Thank You!
Does this mean Kevin won't be doing total tennis domination anymore?
Tom G was wondering the same!
That's correct, he's joined the ET team full time! Don't worry, you'll be seeing a ton of him here. -Ian
kevin is on that dope dope
What, because he looks strong?
yes, and he's a great teacher as well
Ian stop calling out my bs
@7:17 click cxnt . wtf
Как вы умудряетесь понимать друг друга, когда говорите на одинаковых проглатываемых звуках?? Какое счастье, что я говорю на человеческом языке.
Hey seven minuts of MY TIME!
I am curious what kind of a-hole would put a dislike on this video.
🤔🤔🤔
I will. There, just did.
The fundamental claim he makes in the video is false.
The ball goes where the racquet face is pointing if and only if the swing path is following the same direction, unless the racquet speed is low, then the face angle will be more of a factor in the direction of the ball.
If there is a discrepancy between the swing path and face angle it creates spin on the ball, especially with increasing speeds.
I dont know but theres 52 of them
This dislikes are from those who still cannot figure the serve out... They dislike their own performance, you see.
These lessons are fantastic!
oops! sorry, not muscle memory. Muscles don't have memory - it brain mapping, i.e. neuroplasticity (see what muscles are made of)
Ian doesn't know how to play
False. The path, speed and angle all determine the trajectory of the ball.
By having an incongruency between the path of the swing and the angle of the face, you impart spin on the ball.
7:35 is proof. Federer has his racquet face to the left, his swing path to the right. The ball goes down the middle, with spin. If you're going to make a claim like the ball goes to the racquet face, cherry pick a flat serve which actually shows that.
th-cam.com/video/e73vn7e2Ivw/w-d-xo.html watch Nadal hit a top spin forehand with the racquet face closed so much he would hit the ball to the service line of his own side if your theory were true.
Here, this one is better: th-cam.com/video/B2IduNtpE5I/w-d-xo.htmlm29s
