Honestly my bro. You have unraveling EXACTLY what was bothering me. I can’t begin to say how much your channel is helping me. You’re a genius!

likely one of the best tennis channels on YT

Thank you..... It is the little tiny things that makes a huge difference.

I tried this today with a ball machine. This one step made a world of difference. I felt like a tennis player hitting a tennis ball. I've never hit my forehand as consistently as I did today. Thank you so much for these videos!

Absolutely priceless and incredible coaching !!!! Great tips !!!

Wow this makes so much more sense!! I'm guilty of pointing my toe to the side fence. I will most definitely practice this intensely when I go home.

you are right. no one ever said anything about thiis. I had no idea even though i am doing this and able to understand the mechanic. thank you

Brillant instruction as usual!

you are the best man love your channel!

Love it. Thanks Kevin!!

Thank you, can’t wait to try this tip 🙏🏽

thank you, definitely I will incorporate this into my game

Amazing point!

Whoooa 😮😮😮 this is AWESOME!! Thanks coach

Amazing tip!!

Great tip! I will def try next week during practice! 😊

Great tip! I also noticed that your left knee turns inward during the takeback then pivots back to the starting position.

So pointed at netpost a good reference. This is awesome stuff.

Thanks! Really need to try this next time I play. First time I hear this tip.

Brilliant advice!

excellant tip!

Thank you!!!

very great tip..... I have not tried it yet on court, but I did as you said here in the house and felt the difference. I cant wait to try it tomorrow....

These videos are great

simpel and orsom advice .Thanks a million.

beautiful and useful

nice tip, thank you teacher

Hi Kevin You are not wrong The problem I see repeatedly is that 90% of most players cannot focus on their feet position & orientation AND still track the ball well and time and maintain a good swing. The student will typically be adamant they are doing what you explained and demonstrated to them and then repeatedly fail to mimic what you requested they do, even when they agree its better for them and they do get a better result this way. Good players like yourself Kevin, take it for-granted that you know pretty well what you feet are doing without it costing you much mental effort to do so. In my experience your footwork is the exception, not the rule.

Nice observation and tips...

You should get a lot more likes for this. This is the kind of things that are not intuitively obvious. I just added a 👍

Kevin, that worked, woo hoo! Thank you!

I've Just noticed how I was doing It wrong and struggling. Thanks a Lot for real

One thing I would love to see a video on is semi open stance which is used by pros more than any other stance. I find myself in open or closed stance most of time as semi open seems harder to get in

please do a similar video on the one handed backhand..particularly hip rotation and timing.

Worked today during "wall ball" training. Next step, when rallying with a partner, then match play.

Could you do a video on how to better improve your serve when already hitting with pronation, trophy pose, and 100 mph? It is quite hard to find content targeting those with an advanced serve

Hi Kevin, awesome channel! Question re: this video at 05:10, what grip are you using?

I think the point of the motion is to rotate your hips until they face the direction the ball needs to go (by pushing foward with your legs in that direction). They then need to stop to transfer power to the arm. If they don't go far enough you or if they go to far you can't hit in front properly. You can try this out by planting your off leg on the ground and having your racket leg on your toes then pick the foot angle that allows your hips face forward but no further.

Do you know that you're the best coach on youtube?

What is the relationship between direction of outside foot and ability to bend knees in preparation for stroke?

Excellent tip, Kevin! How do we create upper/lower body seperation on a neutral stance ? Or is it that the main power source on the neutral comes from shifting body weight from rear to front moving into the ball?

Hi Kevin, Looks great when you demonstrate. But isn't it more difficult to bend your knee and push your body weight forward when your toes face forward?

Great tip! Does this work equally on the backhand side?

I can feel the coil but hope this won't give me ankle issues

time to accelerate? sir

i know this toe footwork works because i used them when i was learning tennis, but i sprained my ankle twice because of it, so i had to train with my toes pointing my inertia. any suggestions to fix this footwork, or another way to generate power? obviously, if there isnt much running, i would still use the toe footwork.

Great lesson! Shouldn’t the right foot (curled toes,) for right handers, be slightly behind the left foot when you “load,” in the open stance? That way you can transfer your body weight forward as you swing, in other words “land” on the left foot, not backwards, if your right foot is slightly forward, as you demonstrated repeatedly on this video.

No doubt this adds power to the forehand. If one has a choice by getting to the FH and set up from the open stance and hit the ball by pivoting on the left foot and landing on the right foot, which is more efficient and or powerful?

2 years of tennis, and I just found this out????
