grate tips on the vid i like how humble you are
i didnt understand whats the diffrence bettwen lowering your hips and success sinking
underrated chanel, the best tennis tips you can receive!
Wrong
@@Katauhide no
"DAT ASS" lol
Tennis butt.
It's so easy to get blinded by what the arm and are the racket are doing and focus solely on these elements of our groundstrokes. I've been playing tennis for a long time now and have only recently been working on using my legs properly, simply because before I didn't know any better! There's way too many coaches and videos on "pat the dog", "wrist lag" and the like that will only mess up your overall technique; thanks Karue for focusing on the stuff that matters and that will really help make players better!
Precisely my goal with the channel!
Agreed, target focus on the arm motion and grip maybe and the rest of the body is lost to them.
I have this same problem. Through watching many of these videos and recording myself (it’s a mix of amazing and horrible to see what you actually look like), I know 90% of my problem lies on footwork and using legs. Haven’t figured out the solution though. Cardio?
@@bruno_mart I've done specific footwork drills, taking the racket away and focusing solely on the movement patterns before trying to replicate the movements while hitting with a ball machine (basically in a controlled environment where I won't panic and revert to old habits!) then gradually trying to bring in the new habits with a hitting partner and then in matches. It can definitely be a bit cringe watching yourself play but it's worth it!
Well said. UA-cam is awash in tennis instruction “click bait” vids trying to sell you courses on how to hit the Federer FH! Steer clear.
This channel has upfront no nonsense info. Tennis 101 is all about the hours of quality work on court that needs to get done and the core skills including footwork and hand eye coordination. ✅
my biggest problem has always been adjusting my arm instead of finding the ball with my legs, safe to say its been holding me back
Real important for consistent striking! Thanks!
Great video dude. Take a look at 5:06+. Often people don't realize the importance of what Marcos is doing with his left leg...not only is it bent, the thigh is perpendicular to the ground, which illustrates he has engaged and properly utilizing his left hip for alignment, stability, and power. Marcos has his hip pulled forward loading his hips...not just his right leg. Watch how people do lunges...and most open stance forehands...the back leg is too far back, therefore the back hip is "flared" open, losing all stability and power from the hips.
Great technical video Karue, especially when analysing from behind the player which so clearly shows the loading up and the kinetic chain. Fab :)
Very helpfull.Thank you very much.
another super high quality video! superbly presented and with lots of usable insights. thx!
Such a useful video - thanks so much
Can't wait to practice this!!! This is very good info.
Love the game, love the content, more like this one and your others, just excellent work. I’d like to see the same analysis on lower body during the serve and during the volley. I’m trying to get all the pieces to work together which starts with getting the legs built up for that push. Your own experiences really add to the channel. Thank you 🎾
Karue, your videos are constantly improving!! Great job!
So, I didn’t watched this video in a while, came back at it this week as a refresh.
Awesome video. We need new one like this.
Enjoyed this, thanks!
Thanks for the great tips! I'll keep these advice in mind the next time I get on the court.
Great lesson! Thank you and keep on doing great job
Thanks! The cues really helped me understand how I can improve my weight transfer/shifting!
Thank you so much for the great advice! I think you are absolutely right about problems of 3.5 and low 4.0 players like me. You learn how to control balls with your arms but you just can not generate enough consistent pace on the balls without using lower body. I will give it my best try and see if I can improve.
Great content Karue. This is something I have been trying to focus on instead of “arming” the ball. I like to think of it as “squishing a bug” with my leg drive.
Good info Karue.
Excellent video. The hip turn is something I'm focusing on right now to generate more power and control and make more stroke more efficient. I think as a junior player I didn't do a very good job with incorporating my legs into this kinetic chain and that hurt my groundies a lot. Thanks for sharing, Karue. Keep up the great videos!!
great video Karue!
so many videos say bend your knees when you want more power. but what then?
i had to learn the hard way that it's really all about shifting your weight from your back leg to your front leg and that's how you generate/transfer that potential energy into kinetic energy at contact.
Great analysis and tips for leg drive, could you do a session on swing path? Many coaches talk about extension through the ball, which implies a linear motion, but this video demonstrates the racquet moving in an arc, more rotational than linear. Grateful for your views on this aspect as well. Love the channel.
Wow, this is an excellent video! Thx
fantastic. many thanks.
Good content thanks Karue
This channel has improved my tennis game enormously over any other paid lessons I’ve ever had! Thanks Karue!
totally support your point！
Ty so much this is amazing:)
very very good content!!!
Thanks Karue. I was over rotating with my shoulder turn. Now I know that I should focus on pushing/rotating my hip forward instead of the shoulder ;)
I"m a firm believer in watching and copying what you see. This guy is SO smooth and so effortless, that just watching him and then going out and hitting improves my strokes. The instruction is fine, but I don't focus on it. I just watch him hit the ball for 10 minutes!
Learn a lot from ur strokes dealing with various height of coming balls.
Great content Karue! Started playing in earnest over a year ago it's taken me this long to really get balance and knee bend down to where it's second nature. Now to be able to implement the use of leg drive and kinetic chain will really add to the pace of my shots and overall aggressiveness to the game. Fantastic analysis thank you!
So happy we could help! Keep up the good work
great video - would be great if you can also share some tips on how to calibrate timing of the load on different balls. One of the toughest parts in tennis is judging and preparing from a timing perspective
Sink and hit practice time!thanks man
That man has been squatting...those shorts are in danger.
the difference forcing the power and easy power using your legs and body as one, good video
Was actually looking for this in your channel last week! Can you also do more videos of advanced drills with a hitting partner?
Will do!
Excellent vid Karue, as always man. I am a clinical psychologist (in a primary care setting, NOT sports psych but sometimes I talk to pt's about performance anxiety)...I am wondering if you could do a video on any psychology or mental aspects of the game (dealing w/nerves, what to do when you feel defeated/hopeless, handling anger, etc.) you may have learned while at UCLA. Especially if ya'll ever got to work w/a sports psychologist.
Funny you say that, that's what I'm working on for a video I'll post soon! And I'm partnering with an app specifically designed for tennis players to improve that
I've found that what has helped me a lot is of course being ready in terms of my feet and mentally focusing to know that the ball is probably going to come with a lot of pace and depth but mostly to turn my shoulders on the shot.. specifically on the forehand..my backhand kinda sucks so I haven't really found that tbh 😅
it's so true that it all starts with the lower part of the body. excellent content 100%
thank you!
thank you
Very useful info for amateur players. Especially older players forget about the importance of legs
I know you said you don’t really want to do too many racquet reviews but I would love to see a review of the 2021 HEAD Radical Pro.
high quality stuff
Great Advice bro
Thanks bro
Wow love your channel. You always know what you're talking about. Liked and subscribed. Question please: I'm very technical so i wanted to ask, coz I tried pushing off ground with legs but not sure how it works. I hear on the fh (for a rightie) I should push off only back leg - right leg and trasnfer weight onto left front leg, Is that true? And as easy as it sounds am not sure how to do it. Do you have any drill for this or visualization or analogy for how to push legs correctly into the shot? thx
Great job thanks. It's been a long time that I'm trying to find lessons about the "dinamyc balance", that movement of very little shifting of the advanced feet that I see in the pro players especially at the end of the forehand, but that I'm not still able to reproduce. Time by time I lose control of the legs , feet or of the hips while I try to fix the problem. Some suggestion or ideas for a your next videos about this matter? Thanks and regards
Great video! One quick question, is the push only on the back foot or both feet?
I watched hundreds of tennis video, this one is my favorite.
I rewatch it every 2 days. Very very good and helpful
Hahah that's awesome to hear! We focus on the right stuff here at mytennishq 😏
@@MyTennisHQ like you said it’s a little bit advanced but I wander why they don’t show you this. Like, hip, shoulder, racquet. First thing you learn in boxing. Should be first you learn in tennis. I wish I learned it at first. Better then to unlearn something to learn a new way after.
It’s been 2 week this video is out, I watched it like 10 times. Better then most courses I paid for. I already improved, just incorporating a little bit if this
Spread the word, my friend. And maybe join our patreon 😂🤷🏼♂️
@@MyTennisHQ
I shared this video with all my tennis friends ;)
I’ll probably join the Patreon. But the interesting plan is expensive 🤪
Mario seems to prefer the open stance until the low ball. My best power comes from traditional stance. Love the channel
Ground reaction force. You can’t shoot a canon from a canoe. Great tip Coach! 👏
Can u do a vid on exercises w/ or w/o weights to help with that loading and hip rotation? Thanks Karue
Sink & push are good mnemonics. Thank you.
People should watch how the legs hips work on groundstroke more than the arm stroke. It actually improves everything in ones tennis. Great content.
08:24 damm, never had seen you with the duel g!!! i hold the red side upwards!
Hello, which program you use to draw lines in the video? Thank you.. great content.
pls do more on open stance. it's quite hard for us, western gripper to analyze this close stance fh position. thanks.
Larry Stefanki, a former world 35 and Indian Wells champion more famous for being Andy Roddick’s coach would frequently talk about “sinking into the shot” during coaching sessions in SoCal with local HP juniors.
Never noticed this before but he looks just like Andy Roddick in the intro talks.
Also as much Karu would love to have the Roddick serve, Roddick would love to have Karu’s backhand. Rossi k would have lots of majors!
Fortunately I had a coach that understood and drilled this concept into me. It not so much about how big you are it’s about how you move and use your body. The leg muscles and core are very strong and if used correctly can deliver lots of power. During my tournament playing days I only weighed in at 140 lbs but never had a problem hitting heavy groundies with big guys.
Your comment couldn’t be more accurate!!
Good insight, as always :)
I get from the video what should happen. Can you share a bit, how it should feel? When I'm "locked and loaded", should I focus on moving hips first (Marcos seems to start the move with hips) , should I focus on my arm or only on keeping good contact point? What should be my focus to get the whole move right?
Well it depends on your level tbh. If you don't struggle with timing the ball then you can focus more on your lower body. The important thing is to time your push and hip rotation so you can catch the ball in front of you every time. The push and hip rotation will help bring the racket around with more speed. Try to focus on a few different things (load, hip rotation, pushing) and see what works for you
@@MyTennisHQ, thanks! Have a good day
Can you do a serving video
How should you load your legs with a OHBH?
Necesito subtítulos en español por favor . un saludo
Common problem with this advice is that it can make you miss the sweet spot or frame the ball. Because you add a bit of a vertical motion which the racket follows too. Plus playing mainly on clay myself it is a bit risky too fix that much and that early your feet
Como treina isso na prática?
Is Marco's FH grip eastern?
Whats your grip?? Semi westen??
hey karue I have a question, there is a person I practice with weekly who just likes to rally the ball for an hour straight. When we're rallying, how much power should I be using? When I watch clips of pros just rallying during practice, what % of their power is that?
Moving with the ball, horizontally and vertically.
👍
When you are saying hips start to turn before the upper body are you referring to same "whip" idea that comes in serving (starting from legs-hips-torso-arm-wrist pronation and hit = complete whip)? that would make sense since whip-thing creates the fastest speed to hitting point if it is a continuos movement, in my thoughts at least.
Yes that is it
Question, the body rotation is initiated from top to bottom or bottom up to generate power?
I watched your video 3 times I think you mentioned the rotation started with the foot pushing the ground before upper body rotation.
Does the right arm move start moving forward before the hips start pushing up and forward or vice versa? Thanks and great video!!
In my motion, my hips start opening before I'm actually swinging my arm forward. The hip turn will naturally bring my arm forward and create racket lag for me and then I'll bring my arm through the contact point and follow through as the hip movement finishes.
I noticed that it seems that on the person's backhand, He bends down a whole lot more than on the forehand. Why is that?
Thank you for your channel. It's very good and informative.
Thank you!!
According to coach Patrick Mouratoglou is to go full all the time and then youll learn how to control it. Its kinda opposite to other coaches says, “ control it first then slowly put power”. Im confuse 😅
What he is probably talking about is racket head speed. If you try to swing slowly you won't get enough topspin so less control. But you also don't want to hit the crap out of the ball always. Mouratoglu is also full of it often.. Pays people to go train at his academy then acts like he coaches them. So you can make the judgment about him
Man I love your videos every tip has made me a better player. But man you need to fix you microphone set-up it sounds horrible most of the tiemes
When I push off the ground, my orientation towards the ball changes and I shank the ball.... any advice?
Get good
What do u mean by sink? Ik what push means but does sink just mean like bending a little?
Samuel, he’s saying to drop the hips a few inches.
Sink & push >> lag &snap
Precisely!
I think there is a James Blake forehand video where he uses the similar phrase: sit and lift. I think sit and lift comes from vic braden or some other coach. Lag and snap never made sense to me. If anyone could just lag and snap to create pace at the end of the stroke without incorporating the larger muscles groups earlier in the stroke, we would all be tennis pros.
Can you make a plushy? :D
dat @ss lol
Sound problem ?
Ya - I remember that match - and that killer point. Wasn't that the match where Smith screams at himself not to rally with you?
Probably hahah as he shouldn't 😏
Karue doesn't want lefties to hear this advice
Where that accent from?
the back foot is loaded! i'm an idiot. I'm loading the wrong foot
Shapavalov
Thicc thumbnail pic.
Novak Djokovic, US OPEN AND AO CHAMPION.. SORTA
Do you sink onto the balls of feet? I watched heel to toe vid. I guess heel is in transit.
Super helpful. Thanks.
Wow, this is a great tutorial. Gonny try to improve my movement in training tonight.
Good luck!
