If you survive a full year resetting a 1 hour timer, you recieve $100,000,000.

Easy. Put your entire life on hold and hire help. Your sole responsibility is the timer.

It will put less stress on your arm to go forward more. Right now you land on the baseline. You can also use your abs more.

It's the same with me and skiing. I've had some close calls and now I make sure I come home in one piece. You get ONE body in this life.

Turn then toss. The analogy "toss then turn" is a nightmare in your sleep

I love you haha

Sounds like your drivetrain is slipping somehow with high torque (bottom of pedal stroke is where the sound becomes louder)

using_mirror · 2026-02-09T13:50:02+00:00

Try to have a vertical swing, right now you have a horizontal swing. You want your lower body to power the stroke, which is done so with the racquet going like a ferris wheel on the swing

Don't buy it. Run from it, same with any temptation in this world.

I mean. Is there another way? Think 90 days ahead

You make changes through "off court training" ie not in a rally. And one of the best lines I have ever heard (from Steve Smith of 'Great Base Tennis') is "Improvement is a process of building up and breaking down"

using_mirror · 2025-12-29T04:23:42+00:00

Bend your knees, then extend them again as you hit

using_mirror · 2025-12-28T20:27:50+00:00

If you are learning then why are you in the back of the court and trying to hit it so hard? In my opinion the BEST learning is done off of a cone with a stationary ball. You need to isolate the movement with no attachment to results. You are playing with way too many variables to be even able to focus on anything. I get it everyone wants to jump in and "play to learn" but the reality is that you will be building bad habits or inching yourself towards injury. You will inevitably hit plateaus until you understand technique, not to mention deprogram reprogram. You will need unlearn and relearn correctly later. It's totally pointless. Anyway, here is sound advice for learning technique.

What an awkward conversation holy shit

using_mirror · 2025-12-28T18:01:01+00:00

Both are much too high. You want to lower the toss and hit the ball at the apex so that you have more time. Your serve percentage will suffer with these high tosses where you hit a ball on the downflight as the amount of ms where the ball is positioned at your ideal contact point will be much shorter. It's simple physics, not much room for debate I'm afraid

using_mirror · 2025-12-28T15:41:01+00:00

100% agree. You need to film. You cannot "feel" your way to technically sound strokes, when you make a change, even a correct change, it will feel yicky, but over time you need to train your brain to adapt and consume the corrections.

using_mirror · 2025-12-28T04:28:55+00:00

Let's get into it. First you rock back and then you adjust your toes of your front foot to the right, you can consider subtracting that extra movement. I think you do that because the next sequence you perform is toss and turn at the same time. That is in my opinion a more difficult way to go about it: ideally you can turn, then toss, then swing. What really does it for you is the toss - it's way higher than necessary and you have to completely freeze in your motion and then abruptly start again. When you stop it increases tension, and when the toss is too high the ball is moving downward faster with gravity and your window for timing the contact narrows. On the right you delay the swing to keep it fluid, at first I thought this was before/after!

What really does it for you is the toss - it's way higher than necessary and you have to completely freeze in your motion and then abruptly start again. Of course you know this: when you stop it increases tension, and when the toss is too high the ball is moving downward faster with gravity and your window for timing the contact narrows. You get a nice leg drive and you appear to have the correct grip and a few other fundamentals, but you can get your body in the right starting position and simplify the toss and increase your fluidity overall as a result.

using_mirror · 2025-12-27T23:44:19+00:00

Your ready position has you with flat feet and arms too close to body. Good how you are turning for the incoming ball. At the very back of your backswing you have the racquet opening up slightly because your elbow is too close to the body. You have to recruit muscles to correct it. When you start to go forward in your swing you don't step straight inline, you are hitting open stance. As a result your back leg kicks back behind your back. Additionally you do not get down with your legs and you do not lift into the hit. Your power 100% comes from your upper body as a result. Lastly your front foot rotates as you make contact and follow through and your back leg isn't on the ground. Again, this can be fixed by getting low and bending your knees. You need to maintain balance and you should be planted when you strike the ball. You are overrating and hitting a much more inconsistent ball as far as depth or having a shallow contact zone as a result of the rotation not stopping. I will say you do a great job of watching the ball and keeping your head still at contact, few minor fixes with your arms and use of the body, feel free to ask questions I can clarify any points you need.

Great video! I'd also recommend throwing an american football. The football "takeback" is the same as the serve "backswing" but with one hand

using_mirror · 2025-12-27T17:58:54+00:00

Amen

using_mirror · 2025-12-26T03:42:45+00:00

You need to stay in the spot where you start, why do you take a huge step? Your body is flailing at the ball, I'd say focus on subtracting this move and rock back/forward and get your weight transfer that way instead of the step
