I had some boxing background before learning tennis, and copying the foot work of a hook always made more sense.
When my coach told me to step into the ball, it made no sense. Why I'm supporting my body weight with my front leg? Now I feel relieved
I cannot believe that none of the coaches I had over the years picked this up... I was out today, and changed my footwork. This along with the more recent tips on the elbow made my shots way more powerful and consistent. It is easier to change on the forehand.. still struggling on the backhand, but when it works, it really works. Your videos are the best coaching on YT!!!
Tennis footwork applicable in various situations. Stepping into the ball with close or neutral stance commonly applied offensively when u charge to the ball coming in front of u or taking the shot ball or volley. The heel pivoting away commonly applied with open stance during defensive or neutralising positions or baseline game or return of serve. So far this a few footwork situations i've experienced
such a good point! Thanks. Never heard it before.
Brilliant! I think this could really help players struggling with how to "fire the back hip." It's might be easier for many people to see and feel what happens with the back foot than to perceive or feel what happens with the back hip.
Very interesting. Your right. I have a terrible habit of leaning on my left foot before I hit. And I was taught that. Amazing insight
Brilliant. Thanks for sharing.
❤ incredible lesson - thank youuuu
Outstanding instruction! Thank you! Merci!
Glad your enjoying the channel.
Do you have any other tennis issues that I could help with? If so let me know

Thank you.
Doesn't stepping into the ball mean follow through with your body and right leg after you hit.
It means different things to different people, I’m afraid.
@@chanceschimel5675 And this is the problem
What he's showing is an open snd simi open stance. A neutral stepping in stance is not bad but should be timed as step slight sit and heel first. The reality is you use both in a tennis match. You have to step in on some shots.
Yes, this makes sense. Thanks.
With regard to the _Kinetic Chain_ , I am bit confused. Let me explain.
I think of bending my knees as I start the swing and then around the time of contact, the knees will have straightened.
But while the knees are straightening my torso is *simultaneously rotating!* Yes, it is true.
So the concept of a *chain* (which implies a sequence) does not adequately describe these *simultaneous* actions. 🤔
Brilliant!
I will try it I get what you're saying.
Yes! Huge difference.
Steve excellent instruction I definitely will give this a go. But can I actually generate more rotational inertia from say a more direct force like stepping into a volley? Hmm that's challenging to grasp from a physics perspective. Ok physics lesson aside the proof is in the practice. I most definitely will give this the NEW college try... 🤷🤔
Not sure is it necessary to lift the heel on the semi open stands just to rotate the hips. As i see I am rotating heel and hips when back foot is firmly on, the ground.
I would say that a paused loading can spell disaster. It needs to be a fluid load.
So "twist/turn/pivot into the ball"
Rotate, rotate, rotate. Nice job coach.
Genius
It's actually called "loading the back leg" and it's something we've been teaching juniors for decades. The problem is, is that not everybody has that athletic.
Hi Jay, you guys may have been teaching this for a long time. But many, many coaches teach this movement very incorrectly. I'm sure you've encountered this
I guess there is a reason why you didn’t mention one handed backhand 😀
same concept, plant and rotate.
@@monstertrucktennis
Open stance? That was my point.
@@karadale5219 nobody, including you, said a word about open stance. Nobody.
@@monstertrucktennis
Well, when you don’t step in it’s either open or semi-open stance, isn’t it?
@@karadale5219 If you haven't hit a shot from the closed position without stepping in then you haven't played much tennis.
The point being made is that the concept of "stepping in" as a means to generating.power is obsolete.
But coach, you know balls don’t really land deep often in rec tennis 🤔
