@@Queyh2 Well, I played Tennis first, then switched to Table Tennis, then to Billiards. All three at local competition level. Then a friend introduced me to Squash which - in my point of view - combined the feeling for the handling of the ball from Tennis with the speed of Table Tennis and the calculating of complex paths that you need when playing Billiards. Therefore, for me, Squash beets all of the three other sports. By far. 😜
Bright blue's groundstrokes are amazing, but the serve is holding him back. He'd probably go up to 4.5 if he had a serve. Quite surprised at how big the disparity between his groundstrokes and serve are. Nicely played game by both players, fun to watch!
Unfortunately this exercise didn't help you much. You're missing some crucial fundamentals required for the one-hander, and repeating improper technique isn't going to help you.
You should lower on your right leg before going up. You don't load with the right leg so you compensate with the left leg hanging. This dissipate the kinetic chain from earth to stroke and make your backhand less powerful and without top spin. Also try to disengage the right hand from the body. Your movement is mostly linear. It helps to think to pull the racket forward from the grip then rotating the body with the racquet. Creating lag your racquet will rotate at a faster angular momentum and you will impact the ball instead of pushing it. I hope this helps and keep up improving!
In general, not a bad performance, but tell your friend to change the grip on the backhand. He uses the same grip as on the forehand, what cannot function. On the forehand, he should bring out his left arm, also good for getting the right distance to the ball ;-)
I really like Pavol's serve, it's very clean. The racket drop, the pronation, the contact point, the overall timing, everything is well set up in place. I'm surprised someone that didn't took lessons managed to came up with that on his own, I sense there's a lot of self-practice behind that motion.
Yes, you are right. If I could pick one stroke for his tennis, I would pick serve. It's very technical and effortless. Hopefully, he can teach me how to do it! 😄
I am sick of words like "professional" in videos like this, its missleading. Professional means you are earning a living by playing tennis and being a junior professional is an oxymoron because juniors dont play for money in any sport. Besides that, if shes 12 and wants to do something in world of tennis she should beat you by now considering your level of tennis. Good luck to both of you.
No problem at all but I didn't mean to mislead. I just feel that someone who has a coach, physiotherapist, and mental training sessions appears professional in my "amateur" eyes. Anyway, thanks for your opinion and comment 🎾
@@NoLimitTennis If you are going to continue with videos like this, I think its better to put a ranking of the player. Doesnt matter if its a junior player, grown up league player, all players have some sort of ranking. In this case, this girl has some sort of a ranking. National, regional, u-12 in country and then everybody can have a better sense of the situation. In Germany where I as amateur guy play a league have a ranking system called performance class or LK, when you have guys with LK 1.1 or 1,2 they are either PRO players or ex pro players, for example I am LK 22 and they are players LK 7.5 meaning they are very good amateur players who probably trained as kids. So when I see LK I know their level of tennis. You have that kind of system in the whole world, depending on the country
Dobrá je Sofia,teraz 2 dní po sebe trénovala hore u nás na Olympii,príprava do Chorvátska na turnaj,musím povedať,že keď bude ďalej tak trénovať,vidíme novú SVK 1 o pár rokov.
i play tennis and i can tell you that referring to him as an "amateur player" is VERY GENEROUS. He is super bad and painful to watch. I guess he is probably 4 to 6 months into tennis. I assume that's even more insulting to the girl.
While I'm not sure if I'm "super bad," one thing is certain: I'll do my best to improve. Feel free to come back in a year and share your opinion again 😄🎾
Good point 🔥 I'm facing a bit of a dilemma because I'm unsure whether I should focus on running around more to hit forehands and play more shots on that side, or if I should stick with my backhand even when there is an opportunity to run around. I've been pondering these exact thoughts lately, considering the possibility of running around my backhand more. It seems worth a try. Thank you for your comment 🎾
congrats! i like your game style ! can you tell me what racket and strings /tension do you use? i also play amateur tournaments in Germany! Looking forward for the clay seasin 🎉🎾
Hello, thank you for your comment. Basically, I am still trying new strings to find my favorite one. Right now, I am playing with Pros Pro Cyber Power 1.25. I am also experimenting to find the correct tension. I have my own string machine, so I have a lot of opportunities to "play" with strings and tension. What are your strings and tension? Give me some good tips for strings, and maybe I will try them :) Regarding my rackets, please check the first video where I talk more about them: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yVfiCmFZQMo.html Timestamp: 3:47
@@NoLimitTennis Wow very nice to have your own string machine. ! the blade is a very good racket! My racket of choice is the yonex ezone 100 . Hyper g 125 is my favourite string, but I also like poly tour pro, head lynx tour 1.25. my tension is 24 KG. Not too high for more comfort but still enough to get good control .
@@NoLimitTennis unfortunately you do not play a top-spin backhand cross. this is the best stroke against female players. but you can do the same with a forehand. Just make the ball bounce off very high and deep into her backhand side and you will even win in a few years )
I have to say ... yes ... that looks like pusher-ball to me. I know it wins up to a certain level, but I feel personally that it is bad for the soul and bad for future development. One thing about being a pusher is you have to be fast and run a lot. That is hard. Also you have to be patient which is also hard. I am not fast or patient so I am very aggressive with my shots and always go for winners.
Hello, I need to admit that your words are wise, seems like you totally understand, I guess I am winning a lot of matches becasue simple my opponenes are not willing to run as much as me and they are not that patience, but yes I know when I will be facing higher quality opponents I have no chance so thats reason why I am training, please check my next video where I will show different approach,As I mentioned, in a 'real' match when I feel that defense alone can win the match, my offense is totally off, but in trainings I try to develop also offense part of me. I believe that I have the ability to play nice and offensive tennis, hopefully with more matches against offensive and better players than me a will develop also offense.Only time will tell,but thanks for comment
Monika>Robert, it's funny how those guys started growing in number waiting for the match to end. Against robert, that white door, ugh, that would drive me nuts in the background. You don't really think you are a pusher do you? Just a clever title I assume?
In my opinion, Robert ≥ Monika, but both opponents were tough because I was too soft in these matches. White door? Really? I didn't even notice that there are doors there! 😄 I don't think that I am a pusher, but actually, a lot of people think that I am a total pusher, and they talk about it a lot. I admit that maybe when I feel pressure, my strokes are soft, but in general, I don't think that I am a total pusher. 😮
You seems to be a good tennis player. However, one critical mistake in your forehand (on my opinion) is that your hitting point is too far ahead, you're turning too early and lifting your supporting leg too soon. So, you loose so much power on the forehand. You need to do more footwork to make body position adjustments on each ball.
I have this machine and find it great to work on mechanics. The programmed drills gets tiring so I limit the balls I put in when I do those. My only issue is that the remote range isn’t great so I have to walk close to the net for it to work.
Hello, how often do you hit with a lobster? 🎾 What is your tennis level? Yes, same here. I need to go to the net when I want to change something, but it's fine. At least I can take a break after 100+ hits. 😄
@@NoLimitTennis official rating was a high 4.0 approaching 4.5 before I took a 2.5 year break after a bad injury/surgery followed by laziness. I’m 54 and just started hitting again a few weeks ago, so using the machine at slow speeds just to work on mechanics. Not fit enough to play matches yet but getting lots of purposeful strokes focusing on technique and timing, which is actually good exercise for me at this point. Using it about 3-4 times a week. I do a short court mini tennis warm up, then two ball narrow from baseline, then isolate forehand and backhand in opposite corners, then volley. Not currently using the programmed drills because of all of the running involved, and I’d rather do free hitting with a partner for that.
Uff, You hit with the lobster about 3-4 times per week, and then maybe 1-2 times hitting with a partner. Seems like you're a tennis lover! All the best on your journey :)
My opponent is an ex-junior player who was actively involved in tennis until the age of 16, participating in regular training sessions and tournaments. After taking a break for a couple of years, he's now playing just for fun. :D I don't think we're at the 3.0 level! But give me a year, and then come back here to see if I've finally reached 4.0, according to you, okay? :D
