One-Handed Backhand - Drill #7: One And Two

http://www.tennismindgame.com/one-handed-backhand.html This another correction of your one-handed backhand if you happen to rotate too much. Make sure you combine the "One and Two" drill with "Let Go" drill #5 so that you find the effortless movement again.

@hifromhenry I am going for the yonex Ti80 Lite :) It's a hidden gem for me !

Yep not to light not to heavy , the kind that feels like an extension of your arm.

@Bladerunner55217 i'm not sure about this. i believe that with using a heavier racquet (not to heavy as to cause injury), the muscles will adapt with the technique. from my experience, the light racquet is the one that induces wristiness, and the heavy one encourages using the major arm and shoulder muscles.

your videos and teaching approach are the best i've seen. with the foundations you point out, the desired techniques come naturally. other coaches strain to emphasize the symptoms of a technique, you start with the principles that are the basis for the symptoms, and the technique results naturally. thanks for your videos and keep up the good work, sir!

This is why you either must have a light enough racquet to go from 1 to the 2 position. If your racquet is to heavey you end up using your wrist to try and finish the swing.
