Usually in tournament play you warm up straight on with your partner, because you don’t want to keep chasing missed balls of your opponents. Great idea!
Everything you said are great for a warm-up routine. However, I don't know if you could have both partners do all those things in a 5-minute time-frame. You'd have to go very quickly, and you wouldn't be warmed-up for serves or returns (which a lot of people skip working on). Typically when a partner and I warm-up, we do "skinny singles" and alternate serves; if we feel good with our short-game, then we work on drives and other elements. That may not be the best for everyone else, but I don't like "not" touching on things before a game. Once again, with that said, everything in this video are still excellent for warm-ups.
I really appreciate how Jordan explains then demonstrates his teaching points. However, it doesnt make sense to practice serving down the line in skinny singles. You can serve crosscourt then the server slides over to play the point down the line! That would be a better match situation.
You can do both. It's less about the serve and more about getting practice in playing out the rest of the point in both directions. Down the line and cross court.
in Singles match, if it so happen to warmin' up against the opponent...try to play around and measure up rally from baselines.... and study the weaknesses: his/her hand grips, foot works, back hands, etc. That way you have done 20% of your assignment against opponent.
You did approximately 8 minutes of warmup and your partner didn’t work back, do baseline 3rd, drives or work their way back up. That warmup for both is much more than 10 minutes. Kind of misleading
I watch all of these videos. They are invaluable. Thanks for doing them.
Thanks for watching!
Love these videos. Thanks for doing them!!
Thanks Jesse!
Love these videos, Thank you!
Great warmup. At some point, I would add cross court angle dinks into the kitchen.

Yep 👍🏻
Why no lobs and overheads?
You can add that too!!
