How to get better at tennis ALONE (Lockdown Special)
The secret to the slice backhand is inside spin. The slice is assumed because of the high backswing and continental grip. The feel in the ball is inside spin not slice. Slice sits; sides ping corkscrews. Your takeaway is too wrapped around you and causes you to move outside on the ball. The takeaway need to be to the outside of the ball. The strike is pulling in for fade sidespin and as much forward as you desire for depth.
I don't quite understand what you mean? Yes you can also hit the backhand slice inside out so the ball spins more to the left if you are right handed like Federer did. I use that as well, but only on lower balls. It's difficult to do that on higher balls. You can make contact on the outside, underneath or on the inside of the ball, depending on what you want the ball to do and where you want the ball to land. If think thats more fore higher level players.
Nice
I'm not sure I follow the purpose of the drill. When you get a ball in the middle, wouldn't you want to hurt your opponent by making them run or pounding it to their weaker wing? I have done the X-drill but it was using the whole court. The way you demonstrated looks like a great way to groove your strokes and a lot less running but the strategy seems odd.
When you hit further out to the side you will open up the court. However if you keep it deep in the middle, your opponent won't get any angles and you don't have to run that much. If your opponent looses depth on the ball, you can step into the court and open up the court. Watch Sinner, Djokovic and Alcarez doing this tactic most of the time. Hitting a deep neutral return to the middle, and the opponent has to answer with a deep ball back in the middle since they won't have any angles.
@@broddfelt Thanks for the explanation. I play mainly doubles... and in singles, usually S&V so I am learning Groundstroke patterns. In a match, are you hitting the X pattern within the imagined box or focusing on their weaker wing? If they run around a BH and hit a shot to the corner, is your response going to be back to the middle box or back crosscourt (both shots obviously hit deep)?
What sort of finish do you do in doubles when it's the typical 1 up 1 back position for both sides?
You should do your regular finish, around your shoulder area. If you are using western grip, biceps. Most of the time the finish will happen naturally, depending on the racket speed and your position on the court.
Nice work, Patrik!
Many thanks!
Great lesson, as usual!
Great explanatory videos. It shows that you are a very good teacher. Today we are going to test the service video in our practice. Greetings Patrik from Uruguay.
@guzmanfernandez912 Thank you so much. That means a lot to me! Have a good practice!
Thanks a lot ! great lesson
I think the real benefit of the cone exercise would be to improve Shoulder Tilt. Most rec players serve with near horizontal shoulders.
according to bruce elliot its 70 on front leg and 30 on back leg for the drive up but im not a biomecanic specialist so i wont disagree with elliot but i will with you
Yes I remember those percentages as well from the biomechanics books. And that is when you shift the weight from the back leg to the front when going up. So that is why it’s so important to load the back leg first. Watch Dr Kovacs and he explains this perfectly.
@@broddfeltby loading for me it means that you get the body ready to explode and when you ready to explode then we have 70/30 . Rocking back and forth is what a lot of trainers ask but that’s not loading but bringing the body in the loaded position . My opinion
I’m not saying rocking back and forth. In the trophy position you want to load on your back leg. Then the weight will shift directly more on the front foot and even more when you jump off the court.
@@broddfeltwhen you say kovacs you probably refer to the shot-put serve were he even asks 70 % on. Ack foot
Very good recommendation, thank you very much!
Glad it was helpful!
Very good instructions, thanks. I can see the ball kicked high and wide.
Thanks
Very good instructions. You points out the do and don't. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Very good instructions, thank you. Good drill and camera angles.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I really appreciate your feedback and I'm thrilled you enjoyed the video!
Thanks. Easy to understand. Want the body to coil and then uncoil, right?
Yeah just like a ground stroke. U get easy power if your sequence is correct legs, Shoulders arm.
Simple and great explanation
I agree, hitting the ball in front of you also helps you see the target area and opponent while also keeping your eye on the ball at the same time, because you are looking in front instead of to the side
Sei bravo quando insegni ma sei “moscio”quando parli:impara da Moratoglu che dice cose ovvie in “spectaculuar way for the show”..🤓🖐🖐
The best.
Thanks!
Looks great!
Great lesson indeed!
Thank you so much for your support! I’m really glad to hear you enjoyed it, and I can’t wait to share more with you.
I find your teaching and drills are very helpful.
I really appreciate your kind words! It’s great to know the effort I put into these videos is making a difference. Thank you for watching and supporting!
Wow... i've been playing with one finish and that's over the shoulder! I didn't think different ones were used for different scenarios!
@@RaisingTheAnte Usually the endings happens automatically, but the reversed topspin lob you have to practice some.
Great lesson!
Thank you so much! I’m really glad the lesson was helpful. Your support means a lot and motivates me to keep creating!
❤
Different teaching approach, which is efficient and easy to understand. ❤
@@sophonyasaw Thank you so much! 😊
Curious what racquet you're using in this video.
@@Sinisterg60 in this video I’m testing out Head MP Speed. I really liked it after adding some weight to it.
@@broddfeltthank you! I'm currently using the boom pro. It's a little underspec'd
I like the boom pro on my forehand. But I’m not that confident on my serve or backhand with it. I like the feeling and power though. I want to try the new Extreme pro as well. Heard good things about it. Especially for one handed backhand.
@broddfelt about the same for me. I too have a one handed backhand and I struggle a bit with the boom pro on that shot. I also have a vcore 98 which I play pretty well with on all shots but the throat feels gross on the one hander... I will be demoing the RF01 Pro tomorrow and a blade 100 with a leather grip. I've always enjoyed head rackets but I'm just not really enjoying any line from them in general.
so your toss for a kick serve is slower?
sorry i mean lower
Good question! I never thought about it. I have to be honest and say that I am not sure. Maybe someone else watching this nows the answer? I just focus on the contact point and timing. If it’s lower it happens naturally and nothing I think about. I read somewhere that it might be a couple inches lower, but I’m not sure. It would be interesting to find out.
With kick serve, I heard that you should wait for the ball to travel downward before you hit it in order to get more spin. I am still working on my kick serve. Thanks for the instructional video.
Very good instruction on forehand . I will study it and work on it. Sometimes when I hit my forehand it still looks like a chicken wing. Is it because my elbow is too close to my body ? Also what's the first move on the right foot ? Pivot or step out ? Thanks.
Thank you! You mean at contact? Yes then elbow is too close to the body. You can step out, pivot or step in. It all depends on the ball you are receiving.
@@broddfelt Yes, I meant at contact point.Thanks for answering my questions. Can you do an instructional video on loading and unloading ground strokes and serve ? Mainly when do you push the ground before you swing ? Thanks again. :):)
Great content, as usual. No nonsense 👍 Many beginners 'force' the follow-through as opposed to letting it result from swing to contact. Would be good if you address that at some point.

Very clear instruction.
Thanks great coaching
😊
everybody is teaching the grip wrong. the index knuckle does nothing in the shot. the key is the thumb has to push bevel 6... the index will just lay where it lays based on grip size and hand size.
It will be the same grip, eastern backhand, with thumb pushing bevel 6. Both ways work, as long as you don’t have the thumb pushing on bevel 6 through the shot like in the 70s and early 80s
It would be good if there are more actual hitting to demo the verbalised theories.
Thanks for the feedback. I’ll try to do that next time.
Thank you coach and i wish you make same videos for one hand backhand ,volleys with progressions inside
Excellent instruction. Thank you, Patrik.
Good job! MokrousovTennisAcademy
Better not…otherwise u might get hard time to fix it later pardon
Good stuff! After 20 years playing with a one-handed backhand, I'm making the transition to a two-hand BH. I couldn't figure out why I was unable to do it. That video explained everything! Having a one-hand BH, I am used to having a stance where my right foot was extended and way ahead. I never figured out I had to remain in the neutral stance on the two-handed BH. Thanks coach for the quality instructions! I subscribed when you only had 1K something and referred some friends. Your channel deserves to grow
Thank you so much for the kind words! I’m glad I could help you.
This is excellent exercise! Thank you! MokrousovTennisAcademy
Thank you so much 😊
Excellent guidance, clear and precise! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful.
this guy is brilliant, like all scandinavians how come scandinavians speak better english than the english?! great job :)
The kick serve is not the Holy grail that these coaches make it out to be. It's not some unattainable shot that only few possess. Just like any shot in tennis or anything else for that matter all it takes is practice. One doesn't need to have a great kick or topspin serve to be successful at any level of tennis. The most important aspect of serving is accuracy and variety of placement. I just don't get why so much video time is devoted to this one type of serve.
@@capricornmagic63 I kind of agree. But I think it’s good to know the concept of hitting topspin to get greater clearance over the net. Today most players hit it with combination with slice serve so the can get more power. Like you said variation in pace and placement is the key to a good serve. Sometimes you want the ball to kick up a little higher into their backhand or if you want to play serve and volley you will have better time to get to the net. It’s not a must, but on the second serve you want to have some kind of spin on the serve to get greater margin or bigger window to aim.
you wont get it capricorn. ur mind is too narrow to get it. u merely live in ur own space without any understanding of progression and improvement. carry on being u. am sure the ATP wont be too worried about your opinions.
Druck dir Daumen, du hast es sehr schön erklärt! Danke und weiter sooooo,👍👍
Vielen Dank 😀
I’m enjoying watching your videos and learning all of your great tips, they are very well explained!!! 👏🏼 Thank you! I recently started to play again after many, many years, and unfortunately triggered my tennis elbow while practicing serving. I’ve seen many videos explaining the process but I yet to find good videos of exercises that can be done at a gym, and/or at home to strengthen the muscles, and the movements used while playing tennis, same for stretching videos (with just focus on tennis) …just throwing that idea out there! 😅😊 In my youth, and still today you see coaches preparing the kids with proper warm-ups, and stretch at the end. But now in my late 40’s -adult clinics skip the whole thing and go straight to “tennis moves warm up” on the court without given the body a little bit of let’s get ready to hit some balls.
Thank you so much for the idea. I actually got sore elbow and beginning of tennis elbow now after I started to play again. But I got it under control I think after doing a couple of exercises and some changes in my racket. I was actually going to make a video about it. Planning of doing some weightlifting videos as well if I’m aloud to film in the gym. Have to find a time when nobody is at the gym.
Awesome! Looking forward to watching them! Some people had suggested changing to a lighter racket, -which I could, at least while going through it. But I honestly haven’t given it much thought. Also, the impact of the ball hitting the racket bothers me more than the weight of it. I’m mostly focusing on recovering right now, but I’d like to train to strengthen the muscles to preventing it from recurring again. Thx again!
@@ailyngriffin3425 what strings are you using and tension? That’s were I would make changes. What racket are you using? It’s good to have some weight in the racket, but if the racket is stiff and you are using polyester strings at high tension it will be bad for your arm.
Thank you!!
I didn't like leaving the starting clamp until the end. I would have tied the knot after the second string was in. However, I am a new stringer. 🤣I just bought my Prince P-200 for a great deal and done only 1 racket. It went well, not 3 hours thank god. It took me about 1 hour or so. hardest part was just to figure out where and how to begin each side, knots position etc.
Good game coach ❤
