Really Good Forehand (and General Tennis) Concepts from Florian Meier

Florian Meier has some excellent advice for improving your forehand in this video series:

There are three videos and they are all quite useful. The important take-aways are:
  • Go down (knees bent) and up (knees extend) on your groundstrokes for power.
  • Turn fully (off arm parallel to baseline) on groundstrokes for power.
  • Hit through the ball (extension) for depth on groundstrokes.
  • Slow things down and do shadow swings to teach your body the right movements.
Very concise and sound advice.
