Non-dominant elbow staying high and pushing backwards generates an acceleration of the torso rotation followed by an increase in power. Simple bio mechanics..
Dang i thought you were going yo talk about the rotational axis of the shoulders being led by the nondominant hand in the kinetic chain. Higher hand=higher shoulder=higher launch shot.. lower hand at time of hitting = more downward rotational axis direction resulting in higher to lower rotational axis of hitting arm resulting in lower launch shot
@TennisHacker specifically, we've seen players improving their technique by visualizing their swing and connecting it to a bodily feel. By visualizing both the old and new technique, they've been able to identify the differences off-court and brought that feel onto the court, helping them more easily identify what went right/wrong in each repetition and correct. The upside is that it enables the player to evolve quicker *_if_* they have a good understanding of what the right technique is.
No no not hand in pocket.. in your case, you're good, move and know how to hit. Most at club and recreational level don't. Use of non-dominant hand is crucial and also to point to contact area .
I think you missed the point of the video. It doesn't matter where the non-dominant hand goes. The important things are preparing early, setting up in the right position and timing. So if players want to improve their forehand, they should focus on fixing those issues (preparation & spacing for most). And definitely not focus on the non dominant hand.
Actually, i understand perfectly. You are right, balance, anticipation, preparation, read the flight of the ball, contact area, etc. But there is a large difference between the pros and club and recreational level players and the use of the non-dominant hand for movement and balance is key. Pointing to the contact area works.
@@pierrevallee7940 I have a different mind set, for me the non dominant arm is used to help initiate my upper body uncoil on the forehand. Of course I also use it to coil at the start of unit turn in the setup position rather than to rely on the hitting arm to get into the proper alignment position prior to uncoiling.
@@pierrevallee7940 I just wonder how could McEnroe, Connors and Lendl win so many slams with non dominant hand doing literally nothing if it is sooo important at pro level.

Great break-down. What part do you think off-court training like visualization can have in evolving a player's technique?
Visualization can be used in different ways, what type do you mean?

Agree
