@weak397 you're making contact with your toss either too soon(long) or too late(short)... in general, you wanna throw the toss at about the height of your racquet if you were holding it straight up in the air with your arm extended... and make contact at its highest point, or close to it... and remember to throw your toss a little bit into the court and jump into the court, too... good luck
haha it would have been funny if he said "I've got the weight of my body equally distributed on my balls" LOL but he said foot and balls of each foot.
ANYWAY u rox ur teaching is awesome so i hav no right to make fun of u
Hey! My shoulder gets sore after a few serves, and it hurts after that. Am i doing anything wrong? Thanks for all these videos too! They are REALLY helpful. :]
Will, when I bend my knees I stand on the whole part of my feet, not just the balls of my feet. I've got a pretty big serve but I noticed all pro's standing on their balls of their feet or their toes. Is that something I should do as well and will that improve my serve? I find it cost way more force and energy to stand on the balls on my feet, stay balanced and then push myself up from the balls of my feet so I am not sure if I need to keep serving with my feet flat on the ground when I kneebend
I'd recommend you make the switch. You can do it gradually if you find it tough to do. If you've already got a big serve I wouldn't worry too much about it.
Ok, thanks. Why exactly is it better to stand on the balls of the feet, because I think you have less balance and less leg push that way, but all the pro's do it so it must be better somehow. Thanks for the help :)
question: in the pictures at the end. why does it look like their left arm is tense ? it looks like they're "tensing" their whole arm looking for more strength am I right ?
You are too cute to fade out. Don't do that!

Hi dlight. The arm isn't tense... it's actually very relaxed. You want it relaxed so that you can accelerate it and swing it as fast as possible.
