Can’t really give you a good answer w/a comment. Technique and physical fitness are two big elements, however.

Good question!That’s true all pro players, but not just them, always bend their wrist. It gives you more power, but it’s really important to notice that at the contact the wirst is absolutely in line with the arm.Moreover bending the wirst makes you bring the racquet head down, that’s really important too.Don’t you think so Will?

Hello, I hope I won’t offend you but I think you might be making a small mistake: When you hit a forhand I think that the swing of the arm should start slightly after the swing of the chest and not at the same time. In my case I am in mid course of my rotation when my arm starts swinging frontwards. I think you might noice this on your videos if you watch carefully.

Regards, john.

Hi there
I was watching this video and looking at Frank’s forehand. One thing Im confused about is that is it right to have the racket so close to your body because he seems so tightly closed together and does not look as if though he is smooth enough to hit the ball.
Thank you
By the way your videos are absolutely great, they have been a great help to me.

Hi Javi,

There are many situations where you won’t be able to transfer your weight into the court. For example, the wider you are on the court (which tends to correspond with having to move further to get to the ball) the more likely you are to hit out of an open stance.

Your primary focus should be on balance. Regardless of the stance you choose you should be balanced during the forehand motion. If you are then you’re in good shape.
