Improve Your Forehand on the Wall 👉🏻 ruclips.net/video/zbEATlY3194/видео.html

[@diamondhandsandrocketships6881]

I do this every wall practice. He makes it look easy.

[@patrikmarflak6559]

This is great, I tried it a couple of times and it's really hard. But I suck at overheads and really need to do this regularly. The problem is I can't really get to a decent wall unless I want to hit against somebody's house :) The wall in this video is amazing, such a great "hole" with the side walls as well. Never seen anything like that designed for tennis. I guess America is much better for tennis wall lovers than Europe.

[@davidphelan5607]

what an outstanding idea. A weak overhead corrodes your confidence in approach shots and volleys. May, as a bonus, improve my serve, becoming more appreciative of hitting from stationary position

[@daehoonnoh5228]

You just summarized my tennis game. LOL. I should start this drill today.

[@keith6032]

Another great video. Thanks Nikola! I'll try this on the wall this weekend ♥️🎾😎

[@brucesmith954]

Love this drill. Thank you!

[@DannyGelber]

Cool drill. I tried it using a racquetball and that was a good way to get the feel of it

[@24tomorrow]

I'm so jealous of all the tennis infrastructure you have in Florida ;( where I live, it's close to impossible to find a tennis wall for practice, and no free/public courts are available either

[@BaljinderKaur-hg8ud]

Where do u live ?? Somewhere in Africa 🤣😑😑jk

[@IntuitiveTennis]

24tomorrow, Florida is tennis paradise

[@Mickey_McD]

@@IntuitiveTennis Is there much USTA league play for 55+ in your area?

[@sportscastercanada]

Those walls are huge!

[@negarsh3041]

fantastic exercise.thanks, coach!

[@antoniobriciomoreno7190]

Nick, tks for share.
Every beginner and advance players must practice this drill.
I use it every day and I love it.
Very important practice if you really want to learn how to play tennis.
Intuitive Tennis channel is my favorite.
Tks a lot.
Greetings from México.

[@IntuitiveTennis]

Thank you 🇲🇽

[@relaxandenjoy5004]

Great thanks

[@DanTuber]

Very advanced drill.
That's a great wall for practice. Rare to see them that high.

[@justmediocre1720]

So the court he is on practicing on is actually an outdoor racquet ball court

[@rubliw09]

Rocking the orange like Rafa @ Indian wells :). Looks great!

[@Left-Foot-Brake]

They got pissed off when I tried this at the local Squash court!

[@brettneuberger6466]

Diggin the wall…s. Sure beats what we’ve got out here in UT.

Vielen Dank Maximilian

[@hxcuber]

volleyball players do this all the time nice to see it transfers to tennis as well

[@user-cp8wn3oc1n]

Man, what racket do u use? It looks very nice with your shorts🎉

[@d_13g0]

Hi Nick,
Thanks for making these videos. Do you have insights on the backhand overhead/smash? I've tried some on the wall, but I feel like I'm about to hurt my wrist when I do them. Thank you again for all your help.

[@IntuitiveTennis]

Don’t have a video on YT but will make one

[@DSalaverry]

Great video, Nik! Thank you! My girlfriend sometimes has a little of shoulder pain when she tries to serve / do overheads.. what can cause this? Maybe the hitting/contact point is too far back? I know is hard to say or judge not seeing the actual movement, but wanted to know which are the possible causes.. thanks again for the amazing content!

[@IntuitiveTennis]

Could be many things, but contact behind the head hurts 😫

[@edwardypark]

Great video as usual Nik! BTW what shoes are those? They look nice.

[@IntuitiveTennis]

Nike zoom vapor air max

Great video, I played against the wall from an early age. I have one idea for your next video, try record your self with left hand, it will be interesting to your viewers I think. Because you will still have all the knowledge, legs, reaction but you will not have coordination and flexibility and your followers will understand much better how important repetition is. I practiced a lot with the opposite hand to better understand my students..

[@Fernwald84]

Demanding is right! I got out of breath just watching. :-D

[@rucas10]

Great !
Precious tips !
Hey Nic, could you give me 1/4 of your tennis serve, please? 😂

[@IntuitiveTennis]

😂🙌

[@Javi_C]
