@@DJScharlie Aggressive is ok if it's done in a rational way. I teach a shot selection system called “The DNO Theory” which has been really good at telling players the best times to be aggressive. There is a video in this series on the DNO Thory

Thank you.

Thanks Mark. Appreciate your comment.

“Putting on more weight”, there’s an idea 😂 Thanks for your comments. The beauty of The Line is that even a young player can gain strength and better timing with the technique.

@@biggerbettertennis you're right, that's why awareness of their own body parameters is actually the most important aspect for beginners (of all ages) to develop, so they can relate their contact points to their head-hip-heel alignment (I cue with the "3Hs"). I also explain and demo that when they may experiment with differing grips and stances, the rule is never broken.

Thanks Neal. The servers partner in doubles is automatically in an offensive (feet) position, and if the server can help create an uncontrolled high (above the net band) ball to poach, that's the DNO Theory in action. It's no more complicated than that 😃

Thank you

Muscle memory would be an easy way to look at it but more importantly it's the implications for learning news skills that gives it more credibility. The main point of the video is that the neurological pathways are the key to learning (mentally & physically), and that putting yourself under pressure in practice increases and enhances the learning process. Thanks so much for your message 🙏

The exercises are as shown… (1) Run The Lines (2) Forward & Back on the Line (3) Fast Feet for 6 seconds, and anything else that trains the brain to plan a movement ahead of the actual physical activity

Let me know how it goes! Good luck

@@MONETGamin-p4c wow, it would be great to meet you when you are back. Keep working hard there and thank you for your support 🙏

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video

Thank you 🙏

I focused on the need for spin and penetration at a higher level of competition and stated that the penetration comes from the "flat" contact, and the spin comes from the "height of the hand" finish. This differs from the "low to high" and "brush the ball" methodologies. Give it a try, and let me know how it goes. Thanks for your comment.

@@pantheradmin4804 thanks so much. The sooner we start focusing more on the mental aspects the better 🙏

@@krzysztofjuskiewicz that’s the “monitor your mentality” piece. I’m having success with players by asking them to scrutinize their mindset immediately after a mistake, rather than allow mistakes to build up and lead to mental contamination. Thanks for your input.

lol

Thanks Robert, don’t forget to Lock it Up first 😅

@@robertwong-w5s I guessing so Robert. Sounds like the same concept of energy and timing from the ground

Creating, and then pushing through a Contact Foot provides inertia for timing and power. Let me know how it goes 🙏

@@garrisoncomstock3204 The problem with shoulder height balls is a one of inertia. All power and timing comes from the ground, and the mistake is we neglect “Ground” and try to arm these shots. Stay focused on the ground as your source of power and timing and reduce your swing. Make timing the ball your priority.

@@biggerbettertennis thank you, I focused on keeping weight on my back leg on back hands today and it helped when I connected. Every once of me wanted to reach out and hit the ball early before it got to me but I’m sure I’ll be able to iron that out

Stay open minded. There are a lot of people out there that have more experience and know more

“All these things come from the same source and can be learned in a few seconds”. Paul, with all respect, this is complete nonsense. There is no one concept in tennis that will do what you are suggesting. The main part of the acceleration happens when the shoulder clears the hip. The timing is complex and takes years. A brick or your little correction is not a moment of brilliance.

@@sapientbudgie5652the boy in the video left training and proceeded to win an ITF singles title and reach the final of the 2nd week. This week he is in the semifinals (yet to play). We worked on his Contact foot for only 10 days and it has completely changed his GS game. The other boy in the video (11years old) won an U14 singles title this weekend. Stay open minded despite what you have been brought up thinking

@@biggerbettertennis you assume a lot. I am open minded. Those kids won tournaments because of 50 different factors. Not just because you have one contact point correction. Stop giving yourself so much credit this was due to many other factors that nothing to do with you.

Stop being an armchair critic.

My purpose in this video instruction series is to give coaches new technical, strategic and mental concepts that can help them in their work with advanced players. I apologize that they are quite short but my goal is to deliver the essence of each topic. I appreciate your message. Thank you.

Here’s how DNO informs the player (1) when you go forward if your ball is too high or you allow your opponent to step over the baseline you are open to be passed or lobbed (2) your opponent has two wishes; that the ball is short or high, to enable him to pass you or lob. If the lob is short, your feet on the overhead will be well inside the baseline. If the lob is deep, your opponent has successfully neutralized you. Thanks so much for a great question 🙏

Thank you. Hope this helps 🙏

@@PHORNTHITAPEACHGRUD-IN 😊 thank you

My pleasure! Thanks for watching

Let me know how it goes on the court

Thank you! If you want more information on the DNO Theory let me know

Pre-innovation applies to any player who is looking to improve their court coverage Francis. It covers anticipation and explosiveness which are usually the biggest problems for someone with poor on court movement

Thank you for that! I agree, it’s definitely too loud and I’ll make some adjustments

I’m not a fan of the term “split step” because this action implies you “split” on landing which wastes valuable time. Thanks for your comment 🙏
