    I’ve seen a lot of videos on manny components of the game and this may well be the BEST of anything out there. Perfect balance of what we should be doing, drills (and feel) on how to get there, step by step and common mistakes and checkpoints. Fantastic!!!

    I cant thank u enough. I was on the verge of giving up tennis bcos of the continental grip and the serve. For the past 3 months I hv been struggling wt the serve and the grip even my coach was unable to help. But tonight I felt great after goin tru ur drill .you are the best . Most ppl get confused wt switching from left to right to do the spinin. God bless you more. You hv solved 70% of my problem.

    Kevin, thanks for the instruction on mastering the continental grip. As a high school coach, so many kids have that pancake forehand grip. It's so difficult to transition to the continental. Took me a few weeks in the summer of my 2nd year playing when I was 12.

    If you want the ball to go in you hit with spin. Think about it if you hit with top spin on the forehand and backhand ground strokes why wouldn’t you hit with spin on your serve. Imparting spin requires that the racquet head have a certain angle and direction when swinging and striking the ball.So on the serve the continental grip allows you to accomplish all that is required to impart spin. If you throw a football the grip and motion of you hand and are are essential to getting a good spiral spin. When you throw a curve ball or breaking pitch in baseball you need to grip the ball properly and follow a proper throwing motion to make the ball curve or break. In my experience coaching I have found that certain previous athletic experience from other sports where throwing is essential can be useful. I pitched and played quarterback in High School so I had an understanding of spin and strategy ( moving the ball around to fool the receiver) ( placement where they are uncomfortable) etc.

    Hii Coach would you help reply to this I noticed continental grip for volleying is different from serve okay am alittle short like Diego Schwartzman & I like serving with power like Isner but when I put my grip on index & palm on bevel 2 it like opens the racquet up but when I put my index knuckle on bevel 2 and my palm on bevel 1 it actually closes in the racquet & I can land balls inside the service line is that a thing or just your opinion like I said prefer using flat serves to kick serves

      Make sure your grip is more angled with the index finger crawling up the grip a bit. If you make more of a fist with your grip it will cause discomfort

      I had to stop playing, 4 weeks now, because pronating on the serve caused medial (inside) elbow tendinitis aka golfers elbow. I played collegiate tennis 30 years ago (4.5/5.0) stopped playing 20 years ago and picked it back up 4 months ago. I started out really easy, playing mostly mini tennis for the first month, got my timing back, then started subbing on multiple 3.0/3.5 mixed doubles leagues, so wasn’t hitting or serving hard but had to stop last month because nothing was working to ease the pain even with simple movements like washing my hands and face. I was given a steroid shot and anti-inflammatory meds a few days ago and the pain has subsided for the normal movements. And even though I’ve been really wanted to try to hit again, I’m tentative because I don’t want to re-injure it. I plan to go through these steps when I think I’m ready to try serving again but would like feedback from others that may have gone through something similar and made it through the other side without re-injuring their elbow. 🙏

      @OrangeCaps 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@kevingolden4920 I feel your pain. Here's what I did last 3 weeks. And I'm feeling a lot better on my tennis elbow. 1. Changed serve grip to cheating continental (less pronation) 2. Crawl up index finger a little more for more flex on wrist when serve 3. Switched poly string to multi filament string (NXT soft) 4. Bought a shock absorbing gel dampener 5. Supplement Turmeric. Applied topical gel and cream (volaren 1% and arnicare) twice daily on elbow. 6. Push ups. Theraband exercise. Stress ball to strengthen sounding muscles.
      Your pain could be from one source but for longevity it worth to approach multidimensional to fix the root cause of the pain not to mention proper techniques. Hope this helps.
