In this video, I'm going to show you how to hit your backhand with power just like the ATP tour players do.
Things to focus on when hitting your backhand big:
Step forward in an aggressive footwork position
Take your racquet back high with the tip pointed to the sky
Turn your hips and shoulders perpendicular to the net to store massive energy
Point your right shoulder (if a righty) in towards the net to help carry your body momentum forward
When finishing the swing bring the left leg around to help bring the hips and shoulders back to parallel with the net
Finish the swing high around your body over the right shoulder

what most people dont realize is that this motion is 1000 steps into the future of where most players are, this has been developed over many many years and 1000's of balls.. copying this is rather useless to the average club player... Just because you stride your legs like Bolt don't make you as fast as him

Alexander, visualization (watching the best at their technique) is what I do and is the fastest way to improving players games. I do it all the time and watch players improve faster than ever. I've been coaching for 30 years and never have I seen faster results with "average" players watching the correct technique and witnessing incredible results. It works.... period.

HUGE TENNIS, I am extremely positive. To copy someone's technique you can't just look at them right now... There are many fundamental steps that need to be taken care of prior to being able to even think about how these guys are hitting it. Being positive is one thing but being naive is another.I spend hours on cours each day practicing and improving, and "Hitting Your Backhand Big Like An ATP Tour Player" is not 1 of them.I challenge you to take 1 of your average players, show them this video and see the results.
