Can’t thank you enough, Simon. I’ve been watching your channel for a long time and truly appreciate all your videos. Although this is a topic that has been covered before, you manage to add tons of new details and explanation/tips. This shows your continuous efforts in making better and better content. Bravo and thank you. 😊
Whenever I get a notification of new posts from you guys my mindset immediately changes to one ready to learn and improve..bc the content never disappoints.
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial thanks for asking! I’d love a lesson on a) improving awareness when it’s time to change tactics if my opponent is increasing their lead b) additional ball machine drills for challenging shots such as balls at my shoestrings, pulled way out wide, high backhand, etc (I liked the one you recently posted with the new machine) c) picking the right shot in a rally to be aggressive and change the direction d) overcoming losing streaks against rivals.
I really like the way Simon breaks it down methodically. He covers all the details. The clips of pros doing exactly what he’s teaching are super helpful. Awesome work!
Great lesson as always, thanks. That kick serve in the beginning almost made it over the fence. For me in addition the biggest impact on my serve was adjusting my non dominant arm. Raising it really straight in the air and not let it fall down until the dominant elbow comes up. Then tuck it to my chest so the dominant arm can fully swing into contact without overrotation to the side.
Great tutorial. I just came back from a tennis camp where the coach told me to use the wrist… What would be interesting for me is to see your video on different types of serve and the motion on those, especially types of 2nd serve like kick and slice. Achieving consistency and control without pushing the ball. Thank you!
Again, amazing content. Will give it a go this week! I've improved my tennis game massively solely on your videos (started playing 3 months ago at 31 yo). Many thanks.
The best video for tennis serve. Apart from the fact that Simon knows very well the serve technique, he has high ability of teaching and communicative competence, while the video is very well structured, showing examples helping to understand each serve step.
I think that move from Alcaraz...on the trophy position...with the palm to the head...get's the supination earlier. For more consistency. With leads to a more calm, less mental toll take. Think fh and an earlier slot (lag), more consistency. Later lag, more power. Brilliant video Simon. One of the best on the serve. Cheers from Ecuador.
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial 1. how to combat under arm serves would be awesome as I’m using them against opponents and they’re really working for me. I wish to know their options when I do it and so on. Many thanks!
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial a comprehensive forehand video. Also a video of the technique required to hit angles. Also a video on how to overcome nerves in matches would be great too👍
Info on toss really helpful I am currently working on three things from your videos bend knees, toss ball not too high, pronate. All in a reasonably smooth quickish motion. Thanks 🙏🏼
Thank you, ive been looking for a video talking about proper serve techniques. I kept messing up my shoulder not knowing why after not playing for so long. Im going to apply these techniques and await the results
Thank you for the lesson . It is brief and to the point Simon. If you have time , i would love to know from you about the right physical fitness and training that i should have and be doing which is going to be most suited for playing tennis at highest level.
I was serving godly for a few days, then I got injured and I'm struggling to find that serve again. On the positive this video is always here for me to watch!
Guys that's a great tutorial as is all of your material. Just one little remark: what you are doing is analyzing and reconstructing the proper serve expected in a rather experienced level. A beginner, or a little above that such as myself, who is trying to build a serve is likely not to be helped by this because there is a lot he has to achieve yet in order to apply these instructions. What I could really make use of is a similar breaking down and subsequent reconstruction of a simple serve that will get the ball through via a proper hit but without the whole range of motion, the jump etc. It seems to me that the whole stuff is just too complicated to take into account when you don't already know it!
We built an entire course on mastering the serve which is designed to help players go from A to Z. Using simple to follow progressions to help you master each step: www.top-tennis-training.com/product/serve-revolution/
Great analysis going to try remember to release my ball toss more from the fingers now i know why it always comes out with backspin and why its either too far forward or behind my head.
What a great tutorial again. I am now in my3rd year of tennis and focussing on the serve. I've played a tournament last weekend and my serve is my weak spot. Sometimes I hit an ace but that is often more luck than well served. I recognise the admiring my serve and see where it ends in stead of focussing on the bigger plan. A buddy told me to just take some time and a lots of balls to practice on the serve. We do the serve often in the trainings that we do but that is only a 5minutes exercise. These 5steps will help me a lot to understand how to do it. I assume for a lefty it is the same but of course the other way around?
Another great video. Thank you. I've been following TTT for several years now and it really helped my game. I attended the in-person training several years ago in NYC before the pandemic which was fabulous. Will TTT have another clinic soon? e.g. Indian Wells?
Many thanks for the support, it was a pleasure teaching you in NYC. We are finalising our NYC US Open camp for 2024 now and it should be done in the next week or so. Are you on our email list?
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial Omg... beginner tennis player here and I practiced my serve last Friday for the first time. I was able to get about 5-10% of the serves in the box with only half of them making the baseline. I watched this video and instead of trying to throw the ball, I placed the ball, and hit the ball when it's at rest at the peak. I am getting 1/3 of the serves in the box with most serves close to the box with none outside the baseline.
It is a great tutorial! I have a question to ask, what's the exact moment to hit the ball, since every time I tried to hit the ball at the apex, but failed with that the ball was outside the service box.
Thanks for this serve tutorial. Explanations are simple and detailed. Btw, I have a question, in holding the racquet when you serve, should the index and middle fingers have space between them or should they be adjacent to each other?
I always prefer having a bit of space between them as you then have more contact with the grip. But, you can test out both methods and see what suits you more
great break down of the components! my coach has been telling me to flick with my wrist instead of my arm and it’s making my serve worse so this was helpful! maybe show examples of women players too though? :)
Thank you, Simon, for your very thoughtful tutorials. Regarding my own progress, I have found it helpful to let the racquet drop as far below behind my head as possible before rotating my torso towards the court--letting my swing be driven by the rotation of my torso (instead of letting my swing lead my torso rotation). Otherwise the result is I end up starting my swing too early resulting in a shorter range of motion (and hence slower serve.). This also seems to be the case when looking at videos of all the better servers, especially with John Isner. In fact, once he has reached his lowest racquet drop point, his arm, wrist, hand and racquet maintain the same relative position for a noticeable amount of time (especially obvious in the slow motion videos) even as his torso rotates. It's really not until his torso is nearly facing the court until his arm swing begins. Any comment on this?
This is an amazing explanation, thank you. Just a bit of information from a former baseball player- throwing with pronation like that is NOT how to throw a baseball (except for a screwball), and repeated throwing like that is very likely to tear your UCL. Fastballs are thrown by snapping the wrist, and most other pitches are thrown by going from neutral wrist position to supinated, in various degrees (usually combined with a snap of the wrist). TL;DR: Snapping your wrist: good for throwing balls, bad for serving balls!
That’s very interesting, as the latest lesson we just released a few days ago, I was searching for slow motion footage of baseball throws and found a few great clips were they all used supination into pronation with some wrist flexion. So you snap the wrist in general when throwing the ball? Is that for the spin created or is there another reason?
There is a type of pitch , the screwball, that is what's being shown in the footage you're referencing, it's just not something that hardly anyone throws anymore. For a fastball, the snapping of the wrist helps to create backspin which is what you want to create movement in a fastball, Offspeed pitches (think slider, curveball) use supination /wrist snap to enact a different type of spin to allow those pitches to move. But unless you are a pitcher throwing offspeed pitches, throwing a baseball will consist of a neutral grip/wrist snap.@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial Thanks again for the great videos!
It depends on your motion, is it a full swing, abbreviated? Do you toss the ball high, do you have a pause? Ideally it’s medium to start and builds up to fast from the power position
Great lesson, thanks. Going from pronation to finishing at my left hip is going to be a challenge because it doesn't seem like a natural physical progression. I'll try your way when hitting flat or with less side-spin, to try to get more pace. But when I slice the ball sideways so that it arcs to the sideline in the deuce court and then bounces further away from the receiver, I doubt I'll be using it. You sound South African. If so, are you in KZN or near the Garden Route? Cheers from Oregon, USA.
Many thanks 🙏 I’m 185cm I think height is of course important on the serve, but there are always ways to improve a serve regardless of height. Of course the taller you are, the easier it is
not a pro but if you lift you heel in the back snd sorta swing your movment back and put your hip mainly on one heel then you can put your weight on it and if you move forward fsst youll move you weight to the front.hope this helps!!
It looks like there is more going on with the shoulders than merely tilting… are you also turning the upper body such that the shoulder are more rotated than the hips?
One other comment I can throw a flatish stone a long way into the sea as I pronate and also spin the stone and the throw is like a serve as I am throwing it high to go further with the spin and the power position is as for the serve. Just need to learn to transfer the power into a powerful consistent serve with minimum strain on body.
Dont really get the supination to pronation wrist movement - would need to see it frame by frame - even your slow motion is too quick to see what the wrist is doing.
I've been snapping my wrist because I never really knew about what pronation really was Serving around high 80's, my wrist is currently not appreciating it
My first serve is very good, not be cocky but I get so many free points because of it, but my second serve.. dear god, it's good in practice, but horrible in matches! Think it's mental, I don't use my legs, swing is to slow, I say mental because, I just not seem to get it in my head that I still hit it hard, but different..
Why does every coach and player give different instructions on the movement of the throwing arm? Some explicitly state that when you use that arm against your body, after throwing, lie with 90 degrees under your armpit, it stops your body from moving completely, and thereby increasing the speed of hitting the ball? It does sound logical, however I see so many pro's not using that technique? If you implement physics it does make sense. If I would throw a ball in the same manner, and I suddenly get blocked from making the full rotating movement, I would throw it faster like catapult.
Simon, I am thinking maybe the abbreviated motion gives one a better chance of getting into the Alcaraz/Goran palm facing the head supination position. What do you think? Do you think you get more supination with the abbreviated motion?
You can get the extra supination with both the full or abbreviated swings. It depends on how you lift the racket and position your palm in the power position

Simon, I am thinking maybe the abbreviated motion gives one a better chance of getting into the Alcaraz/Goran palm facing the head supination position. What do you think? Do you think you get more supination with the abbreviated motion?
You can get the extra supination with both the full or abbreviated swings. It depends on how you lift the racket and position your palm in the power position
@TopTennisTrainingOfficial thanks for your response. To me, your serve looks more dynamic since you went to the more abbreviated motion
