Footwork for Backhand POWER

- There were questions asked after the last 2 videos on the differences between the forehand and backhand side with footwork. In this video I clear up any of the issues you asked about. HAVE FUN😁
Great detailed guidance for us old-school one-handers. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Congratulations on passing the 2.5k subscribers. 3k incoming...
Thank you, I hope you got something from it 😁 and thank you for joining the team
Thanks for the demo and explanation, I learned a lot. Forehand power comes easy to me so I needed this for the backhand.
Happy you found the video, u hope it helps
I applied the skater’s analogy today. The darn thing worked!! 100% improvement. I finally learned how to hit a proper backhand!! It only took 45 years! 🤣🤣🤣 Your tip is amazing! Thanks man!
Additionally,, I used the skater’s analogy on my forehand too. And it worked well!! 😀
I try to give the things that a easy to apply that I know will make a difference. I'm happy that's what happened for you
congrats on 2500 subscribers! If you're still taking questions can you talk about the right way to take off power? For example, say you're playing mini-tennis warmup? Or less extreme, say you are hitting w/a 4.5 player and you want to give him good shots but not blow him away?
Do you take a shorter swing? Different swing? Swing slower? Suppose you're having an off day and want to cut down to 70%, how to do this while keeping your stroke smooth hoping that you can go back to full strength?
I like this question. I'll definitely cover it for you
Your backhand is so smooth it’s sickening!! The power you generate is awesome! 🤨🤨
Thanks for the compliment, it definitely took me a bit to get there
Congratulations!!! It's 2.7K now.
This may be not that beneficial but it is a fun request. Would you mind teaching us how to do tweener? You can put it as a last-priority request.
We made it🥳🎉
@dannys.5084 tweeners are fun so sure
3K and counting ❤
Excellent lesson. Will try this!
Thank you 😁 let me know how it goes 👍
Thanks. Your content are the best tennis instructions on the internet.
Wow I appreciate that! That's a huge compliment
Almost at 3k coach Will! Congratulations, you deserve to be in the hundreds of thousands of subscribers. Your videos are incredible!
I'd love to see some more material on volleys, I find I often can't transfer any pace into the ball and just end up producing volleys that sit there.
Occasionally I'll hit a nice solid volley that sits low but for the most part it's very inconsistent
You got it and a big thank for the compliment 🙏
your one handed backhand is very smooth and natural. I hit mine for almost 2 years now, but i wish i could just deliver effortless like you do. Are you going to do a video about how you hit the one hander?
I did one that i covered some of the things that made mines better in a way shorter amount of time. let me know if this one helps

great video, the best explication in youtube about one back hand, tnx brother
Thank you so much. The video really helps me to improve my one hand back hand technique.
I'm happy to have been able to help
Hard to believe you only have 13k subscribers. Great explanations
Growing slowly but trying to keep getting the quality better😁 thank you for the vote of confidence 🙏
Thanks so much. Great insights as always ❤
Happy to ɓe able to help😁
Good common sense advice and different from other instructors.
That's my goal 😁 that way it's easy to apply 👍 hope it helps
thanks for the skating tip will definitley improve my balance will try out next time out and easy to remember
Let me know how it goes
Great work bro 😊keep it up, great analysis…. Yr my top coach!!!
Wow thank you, that a big compliment and I appreciate it
That leg lift on the two handed backhand is a master class, thanks coach, best wishes🎉
You are very welcome 😁 hope it was helpful
You make the one handed backhand look so easy! I have to try this.
Appreciate the compliment 😁 hope your gets better than mines
Excellent presentation!
Thank you 😁 I hope it helps
Great video, I am guilty of closing my stance too much and restricting my hips on the 2h backhand. Will try to incorporate these skater tips to keep it fluid in toward the court.
You're not alone. it's an issue that is more common than you would think. I hope the video helped
Thanks for your videos giving the one-handers some love :)
Of course 😁 hope it helped
I watched this and it instantly changed my backhand for the better. I can confidently hit a one-handed backhand shot and holding the racket steady makes a big difference. Shared it with a friend and her backhand improved from one day to the next. Thank you!
I'm very happy I was able to help 😁🙏
You have no idea how quickly the advice worked! My friend and I can trust our backhands! This was priceless information! @@ironwilltennis
i loved this one. i learned i'm not using enough legs on the 2 handed. I need to use more legs and come forwards towards the ball more
It's one of the most impactful things I've seen change people's stroke production
This is gold
Thank you 🙏hope it is helpful
this is great info!!!
Thank you, I hope it was helpful
So good
Big thanks
I was trying to emulate what you do with your backhand last night at my club and my shoulder began to hurt . So I went back to doing my backhand. 🤣🤣
Definitely takes come reconditioning lol
Nice 👍🌞🤗
Using the analogy of a skater (figure skater I’m assuming). Very good . I started doing that and I can feel the power. I’ll try it tonight.
Come back and let me know how it felt😁
Thanks a lot for the great footwork videos. I was able to incorporate these ideas very effectively in my game. I would like to understand better the advantages and disadvantages of closed stance and semi open stance versions of the two handed backhand and their technical differences. Coaches seem to generally push for the closed stance version, but I am not sure why. It would be amazing if you could make a video on this topic 😀
I think I can do that that 😁👍
Looking forward to it!
Thank you! You have given me permission to hit like i know i can.
Permission granted 😁
great stuff thnx
Glad you enjoyed it
1:46 - One handed vs two handed backhand body rotation
3:50 - One handed sideways options: 1. Out & forward 2. Out staying sideways
5:52 - Two handed spin and leg drive advantage
7:30 - Two handed racket angle advantage
I have a one handed backhand. Very occasionally and only when I'm in a pinch I hold it with 2 hands - only to support a weird backhand angle that would feel too weak holding with one hand. My question: is it good to develop a 2 handed backhand besides my one handed backhand or is it better to focus on one of the two?
Developing a good general knowledge of the 2 hander for those pressure shots is a great idea. You see pros switch to the 2 hand every now and then as well
✨️💪🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you😁
I love this channel. No BS but proper advice really well explained. I hope you go 10k soon, would be well deserved.
One thing though, if I may. Can you record your video so that landscape is actually filling all of a phone screen? Would be awesome!
Interesting, I didn't know that was an issue that was occurring. I will do my best. May take a bit to source the issue😁👍 and thank you for the compliment I hope we get there too
@@ironwilltennis It almost looks like you are uploading your videos in a 4:3 instead of a 16:9 aspect ration. Could that be it?
Will, I find myself stepping across more when I am going down the line, and forward when I am aiming cross court (with my one-hander). It's easier for me to point to the target on follow through.
I've seem that before. Truthfully its a preference😁but just be careful not to step across to far and closing off your rotation
I’m pretty sure everyone would agree with me the one handed backhand looks way better than the double so graceful
Definitely no argument from me 😁
on the 2hb you stay open or semi close in order to hit? i see you give the power with the front (right) leg. I thought i should give the push with my back (left) leg. I will go out tomorrow to try more the open stance.
Also is this a vcore 98 or 100? what sting you thing works best? Shaped or something like polytour?
Congrats on your your 2500 subscribers.
The power always comes from the back(left) leg. The open stance just lends itself to a little more spin and angle. I'm using the vcore 95 actually and I'm a 17g string with no texture
Great channel! Quick question: what's the best way to hit a high ball 2 hands backhand?
If you asking tactics, high rolling shot if you're in the back court or flatten it out if you're inside such as a short ball. Technique wise, set you're racquet Slightly higher and shallow out the racquet drop behind your body
I love your videos man! Would you mind take a question for me please?
Could you explain the plus and minus from each tennis grip? I recently switch my forehand grip from eastern to western and seen tremendous improvement. I could hit very low, fast and deep shot compared to my previous grip. Would like to know if this is placebo effect or is there any real explanation to this.
Big thanks and keep sharing the good stuff bro!
I'd be happy to
@@ironwilltennis let's GO
@@ironwilltennis can't wait
Can you show how to hit a 1 handed backhand on open stance - found this a good arsenal when there is no time to set up
I'm sure I can add that to the list of things to do
Enjoying the videos. I have a good forehand where i do not have to really thing about footwork or dropping the racket to get topspin or power (it just comes more naturally). But my backhand, I have to seriously concentrate to hit my spots when hitting top or pace. What do you suggest when hitting a return inside out? My issue is that I can hit the ball cross court with spin but not enough pace where it does not get pouched vs I hit a solid flatter ball that is more inconsistent and has less control.
Inside out backhand is a tricky one but I have a little trick that helped me. I'll upload it to the shorts feed just for you. My other advice would be if you are asking specifically about doubles since you mentioned getting poached is wait with your grip favoring your backhand side and also go for a few returns down the line so they respect the attempt
Exactly on the last comment. I tend to go up the line when they poach too much or start lobbing over the net man to keep them honest.
@@ironwilltennis Did I miss the short?
Hey man could you make a video on forehand basics including grip? Thx!
Sure thing😁👍
@@ironwilltennis thx man im a beginner!
Amazing content. Who was the coach who you learned the most from?
I was actually self taught at first so I studied alot. Then my first real coach worked in a tennis academy and really helped me on the side until I could pay him his name is Charles
Hey , a question for the forehand. I have a very extreme western grip, and that skating movement into the ball kind of chokes me up sometimes. is it better to do closed stance?
if you are using the full western grip, the next gen forehand might be the best way you go to incorporate the feet and power into thee closed stance.
🧠💪
I try to step across on my one hander as it gets my front shoulder more closed for power when I follow through. I just stepped forward in the past and when I saw myself on video it looked weak as my front shoulder was too open. Any thoughts?
You still should close the shoulder fully using hip rotation to make up the difference. Power will come from having the hip come through followed by the shoulder
I just watched someone saying u can get more spin and angles with a one hander 🤷♂️ im a confused one hander and two hander i use both. 😭
Show us how to hit the HIgh 1 handed backhand topspin shot. please
You got it 👍
@@ironwilltennis where are you at ? maybe can i have a serving lesson from you ?
Hi !
Thank you for posting this video following the various questions regarding the backhand, it's nice to see someone so concerned about answering their viewers' questions.
I manage quite easily to move forward by hitting my backhands with one hand (right leg in front and left leg which goes in front while hitting) but I have a lot more trouble in the forehand.
I think it's because I put myself further from the ball on the backhand side than on the forehand, which allows me to move forward naturally.
The problem is that I can't at all feel the necessary distance on the forehand side.
Do you have any ideas for exercises or visualization tips to correct this?
Thanking you in advance.
I will make a video specifically on this soon. but for now If you have a ball machine here is a simple one, for like 5 minutes use to racquets. Hole the one in your non dominant as a 1 hand backhand. a just bump the ball away from you (no swing) every third or fourth ball bring the forehand through to that same spot and just meet the ball. after a while start swinging
Great videos! Get a better camera!
Definitely on the list
