In today's training session, I work with my student Shamir on his forehand consistency. He has to earn the right to go hard.

I like the way the coach corrects the player. Well done.
Shamir's strokes are great. Aesthetically pleasing and probably very effective too. Kudos to him.
Nice video coach! Shamir's strokes are nice and he has some good upside. The challenge for him to get to the next level will be to effectively 'tag' the ball coming off his opponents racquet, early prep and urgency getting set up so he can stroke the ball the way he wants. Lot's of waiting and passivity with the footwork, and the ball playing him, versus the other way around.
Great video Nick and Shamir! 💖 Btw…two great Intuitive Tennis shirts: Earn the Right to Hit It Hard and Let’s Keep Going…Generally.
Awesome work! 🙌🏼 The half court high balls are my fave shots to hit, haha. Lately, I’ve been practicing drive/swing volleys but they’re really hard to apply in a real match! Also, I’ve been playing 5-9 hours of tennis a day 4-5 times a week and it’s super hot here 🥵 I’m so tanned now 🤣 I noticed that my performance level drops the more I play to the point of overplaying! 🤔
Is this baker Mayfield on the tennis court ? 🏈☝🏻😳🎾💨
I like the sessions with Shamir, he's improved a lot when he first appeared on the channel. well done both of you!
Shamir is a good example of a recreational player. I myself am around 4.0-4.2 player and trying to become a 4.5 player. I see a lot of Shamir's issues in my game. Thank you very much for the great content. Pozdrav iz Zagreba!
Puno hvala 🙏
These guys could do a buddy comedy, and it would still be one of the most informative tennis videos on TH-cam! These are the most applicable instructions because the situations are realistic, as are the expectations given the skill level of the student. Also, the open candor leaves no room for ego. Well done! 💪🏻
💯💯
"You've gotta be punished for that". Brutal Nik! 😂 Great job getting Shamir to focus on the important aspects of his game that will get him back to the 4.5 level rather than obsessing over technique or hitting hard. I had a student earlier this week that was hitting the corners of the service box and winning points either outright or with the third ball but still wasn't happy because the serve wasn't, in his mind, fast enough. I tried to get him to realise that power doesn't necessarily equal a great serve and being accurate and consistent, with enough pace, is more important for him at his level of play. Thanks as ever for the content! 🎾
Wise statement about low level tennis - is when you hit the ball hard but miss it every 2nd shot. That's how 1/3 of rec players play all their life and don't wnat to change :)
Extremely relatable video. My stamina is my weakness so I try to finish points before the moment I’m huffing and puffing. In a good day, half will go in and the rest to the net or out. Earning the right to go hard should be my mantra
I wish I could be Shamir's hitting partner/bud we are one of the same haha
what was said at thye end, is what lacking Shamir, his footwork, the rythm and he doesn't go for low balls. but it was funny to see Shamir so tired and breathing hard. Nick you are good coach, and last advice was a golden one
I think Shamir biggest problem is his Tshirt . It’s too tight
Just found your channel, coming back to the sport after years of on and off casual play with a determination to get better and become consistent enough to play matches without getting frustrated with my error rate (i'd guess i'm around 3.0-3.5). Your videos are to the point, helpful and use points of comparison to the technique of great players we all watch whilst adapting them to be more suitable for recreational/club players. Most online coaches I see just ask you to emulate a pro movement, but we can't do that as mere mortals..! Thanks for your hard work
this video series is very relatable!
5:27 "I want my forehand to be a combination of like... Del Po... and Nalbandian"
lol me too buddy, me too 😆
Can you include a radar App in your match games so we can see the serve speed ?
🤯
I love Shamirs personality. Reminds me of my husband's. He's very calm
I love this channel, especially the Shamir Saga
🙌💯🙏
Only true tennis lovers are willing to play at 2 pm during the summer time.
Shamir should enroll at Nadal’s academy and tell him what he thinks of his forehand. 🤣 Way to set Shamir straight, Nick Miyagi. 😉 The last few minutes of the training goes great with some Peter Cetera music.
This is a really great video lots of info in this
Glad you think so!
My guy Shamir almost died 😂
improving a lot shamir, that footwork on the forehand getting better and better, if you can move that well on the bachand side youre gonna be a real threat, no way you dont reach 5.0 with nick, injuries happen, but i think what we may lose physically we gain mentally, i had a bad right shoulder injury, a doctor told me forget about tennis or any sport than involves your shoulder, after 2 years of fitness and rehab, i got to play the best tennis of my life, even going for overheads falling behind me without even worrying about my shoulder, now its like it never happened, only time i feel my shoulder a little inestable is when swiming in the sea, because water is more unpredictable, but im fitter than ever on a tennis court, i just hope you end up not feeling handicaped and going full out in every match, thats an amazing feeling, win or lose
Love your channel. Great teacher and student. Watched the whole 22 min and smile at the end when Shamir said “I am done” :)
🙏🙏
Love the conversations with Shamir
I really wanted to hate on @IntuitiveTennis. But the more I watch, the more I really like this guy's approach. This and one other channel are the only two I watch. Great job! Keep it up!
Best tennis Channel hands down!
Thank you Darius
Shamir and @Biren (aka Wannabe Pro) are my absolute favorite TH-cam tennis players. So bad they live in different states. It would be cool to see a match up! 😀
Great work Shamir - keep it going man, I enjoy watching the progress and lessons
What's the point of hitting hard if every other ball is out?
Spot on Nick. Great coaching
I like Nick's frankness during training. Shamir learned to play hard with control without slapping which is not easy.
Good workout Nick & I'm sure Shamir has gone a level up.
Shamir forehand is really smooth
💯
Was it ever discussed where Safin is playing (or if) in college?
Imma simple man, I see Shamir I click like
Shamir askins the right question. Thank you for getting roasted for the audience.
No BS , just pure effective tennis. Thanks for sharing
Brilliant. Just the video I needed to see - and at the right time. Thanks so much.
Great coaching! Not able to hit consistantly is the most common flaw among intermediate players!
Earn the right to go hard, that’s a lesson for a garbage player who has one single speed xD
I was dying laughing around 12 minutes.
Shamir is a number 1 pupil, he understand very fast
Looking good Shamir...earning the right to go hard...well done Nick. Gordon
Shamir, Nadal has won 22 grand slams, not 21 :D
double thumbs up! this is what sends him to the next level.
Many thanks to both of you! Great videos!
I've noticed big improvements in my match play when I try to hit my forehands and backhands at 70-80 percent. I am working on a new serve technique right now, and have found more consistency especially when I drop my pace some(70-80 percent again). In terms of the progression on my serve- do you recommend staying at the 70-80 percent level or try to build in the explosiveness right away. Love the idea of earning the right to go hard. You need the context, and technique to support ripping the ball!
Very gooood, like seeing the grind, keep at it!
Hi Nick, great video. I would like to ask : How to stop slapping the ball Nick?
th-cam.com/video/-kclVGWgIVo/w-d-xo.html
Shamir's FH looks really solid 👍
On some defensive shots when he "slaps" the ball to fly high with no spin, I'd address it from the body: leaning back makes racquet face open, and we do same steep path, but with stringbed open and no spin as a result. Keeping good vertical/forward lean posture resolves this mostly
Sounds on point, challenge is to arrive there with enough time for the body to have that position and not being pushed back, which is what the rival will look for.
Damn you Nick for letting this secret out :D . The reason I often play well against young people (esp. men) , even as an older middle aged woman, is that I can rely on them to be hotheads and just hit the ball out. I won a match last week against a younger stronger player with better technique, just because of errors. They try to finish the point too soon. That's a big difference between older and younger players. Don't take away our old player advantage please ;)
Shamir’s outfit is always sharp
Shut up and take my money!
So true. My coach says my biggest problem is having great hands. So I can slap or arm the ball back in play when I'm tired or compensate my bad footwork. It's teaching me bad habits since I can keep it in play. I have to keep using my body through the whole point and get in position even if it is more tiring.
Genius level comment about hitting too hard at 18mins that every beginner and rec player needs to hear
Yes I agree
Excellent brainwashing work about butterflies in the head likr finishing like this and that if you're not fit enough to keep balls in 70% - 80% of the time.
Looking great Shamir!
I would like to see how he deals with a low slice to the forehand. And I would like you how to play against the devil ( pushers) they are extremely hard to beat. If you want a prime example check out MEP he’s got the ugliest game you will see but the guy hardly loses.
"When you hit at high pace and miss every other shot, that's low level tennis." Insightful observation.
...”keep going”
...”no no now I go home”
...”generally keep going”
...”generally I’m going home”
😂😂😂
Nice looking forehand Shamir, made a good point about Rafa training different forehand finishes as well I thought and as rec players we're always going to run into better players no matter how good we get, it's your idea of your game that sustains you not just it's raw practicality. We've already seen Anna keep her two handed smash cos it's fun, revolution!!!
SHAMIR!
When I get a high ball on my fore hand, and I'm within the box, I just kill it. If the ball comes fast at me, killing the ball will be an easier and shorter reaction than loading up for a high forehand. If the ball is slow, I still kill it, cause loading up for a high forehand takes energy I don't really need to take if I can end the rally right there.
I understand he didn't do it this time cause he was mid coaching.
Wenn we are talking about best forehands of all time, we can't miss Mr. Fernando Gonzalez forehend! What a forehend... just ameizing ✌️
what a coach awesome
I am just nodding my head over here to everything you are saying. my new coaches are saying these things all the time. hitting hard and fast n losing the next ball is low level tennis. gold nugget for the century
Great video! Feels like I’m on the court with you guys, Shamir’s errors and difficulties are very similar to mine. Thanks a lot guys!
Great exercise , hard too. The faster the ball goes, the faster it comes back and footwork errors appear. I like to do it with my coach and control the different intensities.
One question: Where should I aim during this exercise? to my coach's chest area avoiding low balls?
thanks nick💪🎾
I wonder which version of the Vcore pro is Shamir using.
Earning the right to go hard is a valuable lesson in so many ways
He's hitting the ball well. But in a match it can be quite different.
Great workout Shamir! Coach Nick has some tough drills! Nice lesson, i like it.
How often does Shamir train?
Good to see shamir dial in that reverse forehand
Does Shamir go gym?
😆
Heads UP- tried tried the link to Kirschbaum. Ordered some super smash string and put in the discount code and viola.....the discount code did not work. You might wanna check with them on that.
We tested it and it works 🤷🏻♂️
Tried for individual pack and bulk string....did not work. Tried several times. Sorry...must be doing something wrong.
19:40 i feel his pain as mine.
Have you gotten any beat the pro offers yet?
Yes many. Vid coming soon
very lacking footwork and he is concerned by his forehand finish. Low level study of the game will cost badly. Don't assume things, learn the why
I disagree with the Definition of a Reverse forehand.
For me its a normal Inside Out forehand Stroke and its Just another Name for IT.
Nice Coaching , Hope he will get a better contoll for his Fh and very nice drills
You will not get any spin out of the vcore 97
Lost in technique land so true thanks Nik.
