Probably your best video yet, super rich content. That elbow up on forehand finish is super useful, I've been hitting the net a bit on the FH so that will help to get low to high which I was struggling to find a visualisation for. Amazing work as always!
Thank you so much for this videos man! I'm a brazilian guy and I study tennis so much trying to improve my game. Honestly, I know many channel and I can say with proprietary: your channel is so much different and good!
Great tips. This weekend is my first tournament since I was a teenager (I'm 34 now), so this video definitely comes in handy! Love the breathe in/out idea on 2nd (and first) serves, and the forehand elbow tip is definitely one I try to keep in mind as well. Thanks Karue!
Very usefull. Great way of simplifying your thoughts and tactics that probably took you years to even be aware of, craftmanship is kind of an exploring game. Extraordinary work, respect, thanks a lot.
I have put into practice the tip on breathing while serving. Exhale and then as you go into your motion breathe in deeply. Maybe it is just mental, but my first and second serve are more consistent and my ball placement has improved. So, thanks!!!
Great tips on forehand - like you that's the side that falls apart for me. For me it's a lot about keeping my body weight forward, on my toes not my heels, hit in front not late. If it's all not going well I also start to think slow->fast, helps me not tense up and start pulling my shots. Don't like "push" as a thought as one of my faults is to start pushing not swinging. Also like the second serve idea - my normal thought there is better long than in the net. On returns I saw myself in your pushing the ball into the net example, what worked for me was starting with a forehand grip, but the off hand in a backhand grip so I am automatically in either grip without needing to think. That means I more naturally place the racket infront of the ball with the correct grip and all I need to do then is follow thru.
Really outstanding instruction. You have a rare gift for distilling technique into simple tips that can people can focus on when they are actually in the midst of playing tennis. I find these lessons extremely valuable. Please keep sharing your knowledge. Thank you, sir!
Cool! I thougt I was the only one doing the inhale - exhale thing. Exhale during bouncing, inhale on the toss and fast exhale on the hitting point... I even do the inhale-exhale thing on return shots. It just helps me get into focus and let's the arm tension out.
@@martonkecze9125 its a dense string pattern , so to grab the ball with the strings you have to really brush UP on the ball otherwise it will go into the net.
Thanks for the video. I like that you kept is simple so that we are not trying to think about too many things at once. I would like to see your "thought process" on the short approach shots. Those are the ones I have trouble with.
Karue, why do you slow your right arm down when serving after contacting the ball instead of letting your right hand follow through after contact to end the serve motion with your right hand closer to the left pocket of your shorts? I would think stopping your arm earlier would lead to a loss of racquet head acceleration and power/spin. Thanks! P.S. love the channel and seeing you and ATP players practicing and playing matches. P.P.S. It would be awesome to hear what you do for fitness (quickness and stamina exercises specific to tennis) and injury prevention for tennis (mobility, exercises for rotator cuff, knees, ankles…).
Hey, first of all great channel with a lot of interesting- and clear information. Why do many players choose the two hander instead of the one hand backhand and what are the advantages and disadvantages between the two strokes specifically during matches. In terms of consistency, energy consumption and positioning I see more advantage with the 2 hander but in terms of ball feeling, topspin and angle direction possibilities, I see the one hander as a more powerful weapon.
Also the 2h gives more stability in the shot. Also a lot of coaches (at least the coaches ive known) usually teach a 2handed backhand to beginners since it's easier to learn than the 1handed. Think that's a big reason why many people stick to it because it's hard to switch to a 1h later on while switching from a 1h to a 2h is easier.
the best tennis channel for me. Any plan to review tennis strings? I am currently using v core 95 and love everything about it except low launching angle. Still looking for shaped poly string and couldnot find the right one for me yet. Currently using lynx tour and few different mayami strings.
Olá Karue, cada vez mais melhores vídeos e conteúdos. Muito bom. Se me permites uma sugestão, no vídeo do treino do Marcos com o Taylor, não cortes os teus comentários no fim dos pontos, fica engraçado e dá continuidade. Abraço de Portugal.
Os seus vídeos estão me ajudando bastante, principalmente aquele que ensina a ter mais consistência no forehand.. Acabei de ver que você é brasileiro rsrs
Another great video! I think a lot of intermediate players struggle adapting to the different tempo of a match vs. practice. A serve typically comes to you faster than a feed. Often the return isn’t hit back cleanly. You’re running to hit a volley (rather than having it fed to you). It’s a lot more herky-jerky than practice where you can get into a groove. Any tips (other than play lots of matches)?
Thank you for the amazing content first of all. I always find tips in every video that you post and it helps me on the court. Im a strong 4.5 player trying to become even better. I always found it hard to be consistent because I love hitting hard. I believe that I can hit hard and be consistent at the same time. People always tell me to stop hitting so hard but I dont believe that they can play the way I play because on days im focused i can hit hard and consistent. I think I can hit heavy and have enough control on the ball. Could you give me any tips?
He’s using different footage from previous videos. He has definitely used some Yonex racquets in the past, but the footage with him discussing his thoughts he is using a new, soon to be released Head racquet. It’s rumored to be called the Boom. That’s the racquet with the Head stencil.
@@amorco He would hit well with any racquet tbh. The new head racquet is said to compete with the Wilson Clash. It does have a widened top hoop so it can look a bit like a Yonex head shape compared to a more traditional oval shape.
Hey Karue, I know u mentioned "accelerating" when covering ground strokes. Could you briefly explain that more? Everytime I "accelerate" my swing, it always shoots long.
Nice video. Karue, you should be a UTR Paid Hitter. Im sure tons of players will pay to have a hitting session with you. Of course, it depends on the cost. Chris Eubanks is charging $400/hr! Yikes!
Your backhand is esthetic perfection. But that elbow up finish on the forehand is hideous. Haha please stop it seriously Karue it's better to be a bit weaker on the forehand than making it uglier. 😜 Don't Thiemanize your strokes people!
@@harryherman5371 I don't believe it is benificial to any tennis player to model his strokes to anyone elses. Although as a kid I probably did. I would say that my forehand probably most resembles somewhere between Agassi and Rios. Short backswing. Not really loopy.

I'm glad you liked it!
Love the 2nd serve "inhale" idea! Your dramatization of a timid 2nd serve is too real.
For real I thought he saw me play 🤣
Credit to my former coach but yes it is such a valuable tip
Your backhand is perfect and simple, and the instruction has been great. It has changed the way I hit my two hander. Thank you.
You’re so good at explaining stuffs and so sincere! Yup, your backhand is perfect. Subscribed!😊
Very usefull. Great way of simplifying your thoughts and tactics that probably took you years to even be aware of, craftmanship is kind of an exploring game. Extraordinary work, respect, thanks a lot.
The inhale serving tip is a really good one!
Wow. This was exactly what I needed. More power and success to your channel!!! You are a great inspiration .Wishing you the best....
Thank you! Appreciate the kind words

I like the term swing thoughts! I think I have them but I know for a fact what my swing thoughts are on the serve. “UP!”

LMAO Karue: "get under it, its an 18 x 20" ---> 2 seconds later "always moving through it, back up a little bit - boom, he passes me"
I didnt have the chance play with an 18 x 20 yet, can u describe me what he thought about, please?

Great tips! Huge fan
Great tips. That elbow up finish has resulted in the biggest improvement in my forehand.
Indeed
That is awesome!!!
@@KaruesellHQ
Then I went and checked Thiem videos and he’s indeed the best example for the elbow tip. Thanks Karue.
Incredible review of the game
Really golden...can't wait to try this in my next match!
Great content!!!! Conheci recentemente seu canal e estou consumindo tudo!!! Parabens
Muito obrigado!
HQ is the best tennis channel
Thank you for these videos, Karue. These have helped me immensely in my singles match play.
Superb quality and content. Thanks Karue! Hope to see you and Nai hittin' some balls sooner than later. Keep up the great work! Cheers!
Cheers!
One of the better videos
Your videos always help me out with my game! Keep up the awesome videos ✌️
Will do! 👍🏼
Watching your videos and see you play is sooo inspiring🙏🏻.
Happy to hear that!
Great content! What about del Potro forhand jurney? I hoped that we will see the followup of that ?

How do you like that Head Boom racket?
Love the new "office"🔥
Outdoors is way more fun
I used the tennis warehouse link but there was no way to confirm it worked. Hope you get your credit. Thanks for all the content!
nice Boom Pro you got there!
Please video on single hand open stance backhand
Did you get to try out the head boom pro racket? Will you make a video on it?

@@KaruesellHQ Awesome! Thanks so much! My level of play has improved since subscribing to your channel earlier in the year!!
That's amazing! It's the reason we started this channel and we are pumped to see people improving
Are you hitting with Cressy?
What about overheads?
Great video. Can you not use the inhale on your first serve also?
You totally can. I mentioned in the video I do it for both
Excellent!
Another great video. What racquet are you using now…. or did I miss something.
Still using the same VCORE 95. Just playing around with different ones
Great video! Is that the HEAD new secret line? Will you do a review on it?
Yes it is! And I will in the future!
@@KaruesellHQ Thanks Karue! Looking forward to more great content! Best tennis channel period
I like outside light on you! Haha! ✨
Hi Karue. With what tension you string your racquets?
karue got a new stick!!!!!! ooooohhhhhhhhhh!
seriously though, great info! i'm grabbing the ball machine and heading to the practice court now!
Woo lets go!

Stick to your style
Which racket model?
You are playing a new racquet ?
Did Karue switch his racquet he was using the yonex vcore 95 or is he testing the new head racquet
cannot find in your channel videos the first part
It's the second to last video uploaded. ruclips.net/video/Y3b4pmBYzII/видео.html
Awesome tips!
Just curious, how tall are you?
6'1 or 185cm
Are you using a Yonex racquet with a Head stencil?
He’s using different footage from previous videos. He has definitely used some Yonex racquets in the past, but the footage with him discussing his thoughts he is using a new, soon to be released Head racquet. It’s rumored to be called the Boom. That’s the racquet with the Head stencil.
Thanks for the info Dusty. Looks like he is hitting well with it.
@@amorco He would hit well with any racquet tbh. The new head racquet is said to compete with the Wilson Clash. It does have a widened top hoop so it can look a bit like a Yonex head shape compared to a more traditional oval shape.
I agree, Karue is a "real" professional. Great tips that only a few pros would admit to give out for free.
New racket?
nice shoes
Hey Karue, I know u mentioned "accelerating" when covering ground strokes. Could you briefly explain that more? Everytime I "accelerate" my swing, it always shoots long.
Hey man. We have a series about groundstrokes and it might help you.
Start with this one: ruclips.net/video/5E-PxKSjL7c/видео.html
Two more after that
Ah! Thanks man!
Why does he feel the need to stop the serve motion so abruptly after contact? Why not let it follow through loosely?
When did you change to Head? What‘s about Yonex? Do you habe a new weapon or are you just trying something?
Its a new head line coming out
hes using a demo
Didn’t change!
@@KaruesellHQ Yes! Btw: very nice Videos and interesting content! Keep Rolling!
Yes!! Vcore 95 family!! ;)
Hey, do you know what to do when your opponent gets mad? I feel like it completely ruins flow when someone throws a racket or yells something
I love it. Means I am in his head. One of my favorite parts about tennis is making my opponent mad. Just focus on your side
At 602-1, I can’t help but think… who on earth gave this a thumbs down? 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
What did you mean by “get under it! It’s an 18-20!”
hey man where did you get that head racket?
Got contacts! Hahah
🙌🙌🙌
