Unit turn, loading, unloading, stretch shortening momentum and finishing of the stroke
It’s amazing that we can have the real time feedback about the ratio of the proper to unproper muscles used during the stroke execution using Athos equipment.
Body segments must be coordinated and synchronized in such a way that a highest racquet speed is generated at the impact point.
As spin is more and more introduced into the game of tennis, there was a lot of confusion how to create a spin in a
Two crucial elements are analyzed in this blog:
1. Positioning to the ball (How to successfully position the body stepping away from the ball)
2. Efficient stroke and recovery (How to successfully create enough power so the trajectory of the ball is deep and controlling while keeping the balance and recovery potential)
There are many directions in which the player moves during his performance. By all tennis game analysis, lateral movement (side to side) is around 70% of the whole court coverage, therefore it’s a crucial for the optimal result to control the body (keep the dynamic balance) while moving laterally.
