best teacher ever
Uuuuh no.

Seems he has too much backswing though, using arm strength.
13 UTR, way to go Alvin Tudorica
I'm going to remind myself to let go & pull forward. Thanks 😊
Hi coach, I have a question here about the forehand. Is it better that the pulling of the non dominant arm or shoulder to initiate the swing of the dominant arm to provide the effortless power and whipping effect ?
Thanks for the advice
Vincent, excellent presentation, well done! Btw, what's your advice regarding grip size? I notice that your racket grip looks small. Mine is a two, but maybe a one is better…

I personally would do bigger loop while squatting with legs, instead of shorter loop and almost no squatting. But this is personal adaptation and everybody can follow his own way here as the basis is already very solid for big achievements. My respect!
I could write a book about what is wrong about this advice. The concentration is totally on the icing, not the cake. The demo forehand in the beginning is obviously susceptible to errors on slices received. This technique conflates greater spin and power. What we are talking about is racket head speed. This “pet the dog” technique results in primarily greater spin with greater racket head speed. The flaw in most newcomers to the tour today is that they CANNOT flatten out their shots. And you are not going to last long if you can’t finish points. But the greatest disservice of this video is to average players. This is the most complicated technique that exists. Without great talent, the club player will never have consistent contact, the most important aspect of any technique. Average players need to learn to make contact and control trajectory. This is accomplished, in any sport, with racket head control in a stable manner, not the hyper-twisting result of this technique. Once contact and trajectory in a straightish manner is mastered, the need for some insurance usually appears IF the player has or wants to apply more power. After all, spin is merely insurance to protect a shot from going long. Only a few pros generate enough spin to have the bounce of the ball annoy the opponent; average players need to use gravity to get the ball to bounce up high (hitting moon balls does this just fine for the average player). Aggressive shots are compressed, not over-spun (first serve vs second serve). So if a player wants to strike well and win, control the racket face from the beginning of the load to the end of the core follow through. If a player wants to look cool like players seen on TV and not win, by all means watch and copy nonsense like this video.
Novak’s forehand would disagree with this video and I think he’s done all right with it…. The only thing that’s needed if you have a longer backswing is to start your backswing earlier before the ball bounces
So if I understand correctly, holger rune's forehand technique isn't optimal for power and topspin?
To begin with you should have explained what you mean by inverting the racquet .
I guess he doesn't know what's doing. https://youtube.com/shorts/nGPMzEtVD6g?si=Rqg8tUIarT0bAmI2
Well explained❤ Ball bounce then take racket back. Make a small take back and forward swing in one motion to store more energy.
1. keep unit turn and both hand on racket, facing 45 drgee, move to the ball, setup feet & body, and then release the left hand until the ball bounce.
2. The take back and swing forward is one motion, stores energy in twisted forearm & upper arm.
3. Leg push off, release the body rotation energy to move forward the hitting shoulder. Upon ball hitting, forearm rotate to generate spin.
