    I’m a fan from China. I love squash and I am training to be a squash coach. This is a common problem with Chinese beginners since people play badminton or table tennis more often. The training part is very helpful for me and now I know how to teach beginners! Check the watch! Brilliant!

      It does require weekly 5 minute sessions as part of your coaching session until it is locked in thanks for liking the video and your feedback.

      It is a common problem and you need to fix it as early as possible. Using body for power rather than arm and wrist will also help.

      This is critical as it will open up development possibilities as players get to a good standard so it is worth every minute you spend to get this right. Let me now how it goes.

    The first 30s of this made me painfully realise how much more my backhand had to gain... Thanks for the advice, I'll be up the front with a turned back wrist next training session!

    On the forehand, what would be the position of the wrist? Would you have a video showing the position of the wrist and how the body brings power?

    • @squashanalysis5670
      @squashanalysis5670  11 месяцев назад

      You generally keep the racquet pointing to the roof. I will release a forehand video in the near future.

    Thank you a lot. I'm wondering if it's important for my slightly cocked wrist not to move(bend) toward my forearm or the wall during the swing from the preparation to the point of contact with the ball? I'm aiming for a better and more controlled shot. Thanks.

    • @squashanalysis5670

      Keep your wrist back as much as possible throughout the swing for a consistent shot outcome.

    I actually think what most coaches miss is that the break happens right before impact NOT at the shoulder. Sure beginners have this issue but many intermediate players look perfect all the way until point of contact. The centrifugal force breaks the wrist at contact which is due to weakness….and this is something coaches need to address…

    • @squashanalysis5670

      The problem you are referring to is when players take the ball too far in front of them breaking their wrist just before they hit to get direction. You are right this is a broken wrist and simply fixed by having the player strike the ball later in what I call the power zone which activates the core muscles through the hit or stepping to the front wall to get the ball in the best position. Players are told to take the ball early but this can cause the broken wrist just before contact unless they use good movement.

    • @squashanalysis5670
      @squashanalysis5670  11 месяцев назад

      A fat ball made by Karakal so it does not need to be warmed up and is slightly bigger and easier to se on camera. They are great for beginners and wonderful to hit being a perfect weight.
      The video by myself is a double yellow.

    Excellent tips. How would this work on the forehand?

    • @squashanalysis5670
      @squashanalysis5670  11 месяцев назад

      The forehand is different and doing the front wall short lobs promotes too much wrist flick so stick with the backhand. For forehand simply developing wrist strength will be enough as it is a more natural swing like throwing or skipping a stone, it is the unwinding of the backhand that often makes the wrist lag and activate late in the hit.

      @squashanalysis5670  11 месяцев назад

      @@yusufismail1311 your wrist is held back during prep and then goes to t neutral position on strike then often returns to the held back position on the follow through. You may use it slightly more on full extension hits but generally a strong wrist with minimal movement will set you in the right direction.
      This will not be the case if you do not strike the ball in the right ball to body position, I have a video on that uploaded already if you want to check it out.

    I think the bad technique of breaking the wrist may be the main reason squash is causing me tennis elbow. Are you familiar with that in beginner Squash players?
    Also i have played tennis for several years previously.

    • @squashanalysis5670
      @squashanalysis5670  Месяц назад

      Yep, the excessive use of wrist movement will cause tennis elbow, spend some time to build your punch hitting ability which is a core muscle body hit and it will take the pressure off your elbow. There is a few videos on Punch driving on my channel.
