great session, i too prepare too high too many volleys. It is eye opening to understand that the faster the shot may come at you (when you are at the net), the lower the preparation needs to be
I am so confused right now. I thought that the forehand volley preparation has to be with the head of the racket looking up, to the cieling. But Mauri here says that the preparations must be done with the head of the racket looking to the the fence. Can someone bring some light please?
Definitely what Mauri is saying, it's way more natural. Pointing straight up locks your arm and wrist, pointing at a 45 degree angle makes you able to activate shoulder, elbow and wrist when you swing. But Mauri is not saying point to 9 or 3 o'clock, he's saying point to 10;30 or 1;30, instead of pointing at 12 o'clock. It's basically the difference of relaxing your wrist (correct) or flexing it upwards (wrong), too much constant tension in your wrist/hand is a good way to get injured too, on top of not being able to hit correctly. - There's cases where you need to hit with it pointing upwards, but that's when the ball comes too close to your body, it's not a desired outcome, hence you shouldn't prepare for it. He can of course correct me if i'm wrong ;)
I think because they were specifically doing forehand volleys he says you prepare like that where that would normally be step two in an actual game, with step one being keeping your racket vertical in front of you waiting to see which side you need to volley
@@travisbanks293They don’t recommend holding it towards the roof even when in a neutral ready stance, they still recommend dropping the wrist a bit so the angle is towards your opponents as well as the roof. Basically i’m just trying to say they don’t recommend holding it 90 degrees pointing straight up, ever.
hahahah you are completely right.... just be ready..... and be ready for the agressive shots.... because for the easy ones you will have plenty of time to prepare. Thanks

I Guess It depends on the height of the ball you're receiving
