You have no clue how awesome you are! You probably know you’re awesome, but you are beyond awesome! You helped me and my husband 10X our game!!! We’ve been sending our “arm on a ‘lone mission’” (your words 😊) because we’ve heard coaches say ‘C-prep’, Nike swoosh prep, racket take back and so many more on our forehand. You explained everything in such a sensible way! You are a Godsend. Thank you so much! More power to you and your channel! Wishing you heaps of blessings! 😊🏆🏅🥇

10:19 is one of the most important part of the swing - especially when trying to fix issues with the ball sailing long. I think many coaches overlook this as well. Thanks for pointing it out great video!

Love this! This fills in a lot of detail I’ve needed as an adult learner. I feel like a lot is presumed in my lessons & I need it ALL broken down 😂

Finally somebody in the tennis field talking real biomechanics about Tennis specifics..

Best instructions ever! So many checkpoints to know if you are doing it right. I have been struggling to change my technique from pushing the ball to topspin but could not get it right as I did not have all the checkpoints. Thanks to you Vincent, I got my aha moment today! It’s so effortless and looks so clean, unbelievable!

love all the detail explanations !! i can relate and understand clearly!!

One of the best forehand mechanism lesson.

Awesome lesson, Vicent ! Tks a lot !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks!

Awesome lesson! Spot on!

Can you make a video on continuing the pace of ur hits so that you can hit the ball and create slow medium or fast pace?

Sei bravissimo grazie!

Good video!

Amazing video! Really clear instructions, won my tennis match because of your tips. Many thanks

I think this is more common sence because some teachers practise that we should stay low during the swing forward, can it be beacuse of balance or could it be because it's easier to mishit when you "get up" into toe position at the moment of hit? But your variation feels more powerful in converting the energy of the legs into kinetic energy and forward power. To catch the racket seems to be individual and not so important as long as you get ready for next splitstep and readyposition? Educational and very good video, Thanks!

would like to see some tennis racquet reviews and comparisons. thanks

The explanation works well with a non-native speaker like me. Thank you for your clear English voice.

Many coaches advise to catch the racket over your shoulder, like Serena Williams, Dominic Thiem, and many other pros. They say it's "the most important tip" they can give. How do you reconcile that with the below the shoulder finish you advocate ?

@crisaverette4519

I think it all depends on the ball you're trying to hit. Below the shoulder is a flatter shot. The higher up you finish the more shape/loopy the shot will be. Nadal is a good example of doing both: When he's looking to drive a ball, he finishes below the shoulder or right at it. When he's trying to hit a heavy topspin, he'll finish even over the head with a buggy-whip.

Perhaps experiment with both to recognize the advantages and disadvantages to each 🌍🐣🐥

Great coaching

You need demonstrate more of the full technique

In step 3, how do you prevent yourself from coming up too high before hitting? I have an issue of coming up and hitting into the net?

great video is it possible for u to make a video on ower and control?

And also how to adjust the pace of the forehand for example going over how to control or change the pace of the ball to either hit with slow, average, or fast pace?

Hi Vincent, great video. The unit turn makes sense if the ball comes back in the general area where you're standing, but what if the ball moves around different parts of the court? I'm not sure how to incorporate the unit turn if the balls come fast on the other side of where you are. Can you cover this in a video please?

I'm not a coach so take my advise with a grain of salt but at least you'll get a reply :D. My coach teaches my like this: the first thing you do is - turn. Then run. So rather than side stepping to the ball along the baseline with the stomach towards the net, you should as soon as you see if it's a forehand or back hand, do the unit turn and then run, towards your position. When running your stomach should be entirely facing to the side, rather than towards the net. When you get in position, plant your feet and initiate the swing. If we say you get a deep forehand and you're a righty: Splitstep, unit turn, first step should be with the right foot out towards the right, You should push yourself with the left foot. Sprint along baseline. When in position, plant your right foot and either hit an open or closed stance.

Great content- one question: can this technique be used to with an Eastern forehand grip? I'd rather not switch to a Western grip. Thanks!

@vincentsimonetennis

Yes, the grip does not matter

Try charging at the the end of first 30-days instead of pay now, then money back. Allow cancel on or before the first 30-days. You will likely get many more sign-ups. In other words, a free, no cc required, trial.

Can you make a video on hitting slow balls with very little to no pace?

If the ball is half court and low , should I still employ this method to hit and normally my ball alway long in this suitation?

good

Wise and young coach👍

They probably just need to attend your class.😊

Is this semi western or western grip?

I was loving this up to the point where you said - this video is for MEN! Do you have different advice for the other 50% of the human race?

He is teaching the ATP(men's tennis) style technique because that is what he understands the most. Don't be outraged, he is not saying "for men" to be a misogynist. Men and women have different techniques at the professional level.

As a woman you can do exactly the same , don’t worry. I have a 15 year old girl with a ATP forehand and she has to practice with men that’s how hard it goes

Please demonstrate the full shot

Mr. Coach.. what about your left arm importance during your forehand? You have completely neglected I suppose though your Federer thumbnail got it right.😅During your unit turn back when hitting the ball.. you need balance and power.. try keeping left arm straight parallel to the floor.. and complete the swing.. you will the both the power and the base line landing. Now try without those straight left land.. you will notice a big difference .. no power and not deep enough!! 😊

How to handle/return fast incoming pace?

@jerryplaystennis

10 ай бұрын

You have to shorten or compact everything in the swing. The ball already has pace and power, just have to redirect it.

@strongbrain3128

8 ай бұрын

The rule is prepare early (quick unit turn) Compact swing to hit the ball back (the faster the ball, the shorter the swing, kind of blocking) Use your body turn, not your arm to meet the ball.

I started doing this and my ball is still going wayyyy too long or won’t even clear the net. Any tips?

Change your grip to Western

Good but Your standard stance locks out . For most good players best standart stance is Semi . Of course you need all stances depending on ....

I am surprised by the idea of rising through the shot and being on your toes- I have been taught to stay down low through the shot and be grounded with weight transfer from back foot to front foot'

Yes, in high-speed tennis, it is better to stay down.

👍👍👍

I like belly bottom and the butt cap part. Thanks

At the contact point your hitting shoulder should be ahead of the non-hitting shoulder, not behind it as you demonstrated.

What? Unit turn is your own new concept??

Hey man, check out the typo in the thumbnail. If this video gets enough views, you'll start taking flak for it... Especially since, "pusing" could probably be used as a joke at your expense if out on the right trolling hands. Feel free to delete this comment once you fix the problem and thanks for your great work 🙂.

So, it seems that Nadal has been wrong on his forehand his entire career 😅

If Kendall Roy was a tennis instructor

like

Unit turn? New concept? No been used in teaching for decades. Pat the dog? That might be one of the oldest teaching metaphors. Not a good one i might add. I get you're a young coach. Information is mostly correct. Sounds like im listening to someone read the stock market. Gotta be engaging and excite your clients to learn.

dude, you spend too much time talking theory. people wants to see how to do it, not to listen your lengthy and boring explanation

preparation is very stiff and not allowing energy to flow. 'Patting a dog'? oh dear. And no rotation - neutral stance - oh dear. You don't get it - you don;t understand the laws of physics and how you use it to its optimum. sorry. a no go -

Thanks!
