Excellent, very clear & helpful video. I wish that I could have seen this 70 years ago when I started playing tennis. Due to poor health I missed a year's tennis & am now starting playing doubles again before my 79 th birthday. I really appreciate the great advice from two keen & enthusiastic coaches.

I'm completely new to the tennis. For those who have problem with "lower your right shoulder", it might be easier to do "show your right back to the ball". Then you'll automatically lower your right shoulder.

[@daytradingpsychology]

Really amazing video guys! I have a one-handed backhand and I've come to realize how many seemingly 'small' details really matter. You run through every one of them with great clarity... especially lowering of the front shoulder. Thanks so much!

[@kennethmcgrath9308]

Excellent analysis. Would enjoy seeing sam breakdown of shoulder/footwork movement with one-handed Slice backhand. Thanks.

[@moorthynarasimha1678]

Nice representation and information about body weight transfer and foot position for single hand back hand hitters..

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Thanks for watching

Thanks for this informative video regarding the shoulders and the stans before and after the shots

I'm a natural one back hander, now I need to perfectionate what God has given me 😂😂😂, thank you guys 👍🏻🎾❤️

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Hope the lesson helps?!

[@marcorenato1814]

Great insights, thanks. Something I noticed regarding the grips is that Thiem and Tsitsipas seem to have a 'hammer' vs 'pistol' finger placement (I'm talking about the alignement of fingers on the racket handle). Any thoughts on how this compares to what Federer does ( he has more of an acute angle with the handle / pistol gripping)

[@Welcomelatet]

Well done

Many thanks 🙏

Can you use the shoulder tilt principle on top spin forehands and top spin 2 handed backhands or is it only a 1 handed back hand thing?

[@simonobrien3185]

excellent video and examples- looks easy in theory but in practice its another matter! I find the timing and the spacing on the single backhand to be very difficult. Came back to tennis from a long time ago (the era of wooden racquets) and then the ball was hit in line with the body. It's been a struggle hitting a consistent bh drive. When should you give up on the single backhand and transition to the double backhand!

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

That’s a tough question, experiment with both and see if one suits you more

[@simonobrien3185]

@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial yes will do. I like the single bh but I think the 2 hander is easier

[@theopask8032]

Do you do the same thing for a sliced backhand

[@Miguel_Sanchez69]

Nice tipps, but I‘m not able to do that, when the ball comes in very high and I‘m already late running left. How do I defend a ball like that?

[@McLovin__]

I think game IQ (prediction and analysis of shot direction) and good footwork will help with that

[@alfsearching]

This lesson does not get one thumb up it gets 10 thumbs up!!!1

[@mycommentpwnz]

Wow, Fed's back is REALLY TURNED towards the ball.

[@simonobrien3185]

Focused today on dropping the right shoulder - worked like a treat! it seems to make so many other parts of the shot flow naturally from there, ie encourages early preparation, good weight transfer, power position good timing, and good top spin. Hit the backhand today better and with more confidence then for a couple of months. Huge improvement by just focusing on this one idea. Thanks very much Alex- might persevere with the single bh a bit longer!

[@AntuanDodson]

Light bulb moment. Thanks for the video!!!

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

Our pleasure 🙏

[@nishusaxena1222]

I am inspired by ur video sir thank u so much for such tricks

[@alsonyang2991]

Just wanted to point out that the fact that the right shoulder is higher than the left shoulder at contact is the result from the rotation of the leaned trunk, not a deliberate lifting of the right shoulder. You can see Roger, Wawrinka and Tsitsipas have the trunk stay leaned to the left throughout the contact, and purely just rotating the trunks. I used to also think that I should drop my right shoulder in the power position, and lifting it up thru the contact, and ended up opening my trunk too early to the net and shanked the ball a lot. How I now think of the move is, lean the trunk, use non-dominant hand to pull the racquet back to coil your trunk(core muscle), and release while keeping the trunk relatively stable throughout contact until the follow-through. p.s: leaning is really important, if not, when you rotate your trunk, you will be swinging left to right only. When you lean and rotate, you will be swinging low to high. Hope this helps

[@MakarasLT]

As always, just amazing👏👏but it is not that easy to improve that hips-shoulders-knee movement😅it looks easy, but if the ball which comes from another side is really quick, then I am struggling with this, start to think to much about timing and body movement…😅

[@at1838]

I like the music at the end and that you use four different pros to show us what's fundamental not just style! Request: it would be great to see something about the "cartwheel" shoulder over shoulder on the serve. It seems it is a concept that can be misinterpreted or misapplied. So any guidance on that would be much appreciated.

[@TopTennisTrainingOfficial]

I believe I cover the shoulder over shoulder motion in this lesson - kzbin.info/www/bejne/eavcn6N4Za6qbqM

[@whitewolfdojo8259]

Great content guys. I’m faving this one so I can keep coming back to it. Clear and concise with great videos. Like the slow mo back and forth with the lines so can clearly see the angles you’re talking about. Great tips. Also love all the slow mo shots at the end to help us see the pro’s. Will keep watching this one. Pure poetry in motion from the amazing players you picked. Btw I have a vertical plane of peripheral double vision on my backhand side owing to eye orbit fracture in youth. Makes my backhand challenging at times but beautiful videos like this are inspiring. Thank you both 🙏🎾💪🌟

[@randyhorn872]

Another fantastic learning video. Fabulous with many good and helpful details to improve my backhand

[@rosbif00]

great video guys. If you could make another video about arming the ball too much and how to fix it, because I always feel that I'm forcing my shots and playing late.

[@brenhugh]

Great upgrade bh tips. So how's the come back going, Alex?

[@massimosanticchia3404]

Very relevant insight on the one hand backhand. Thank you.

Is 20 too late to start tennis if you want to be a pro?

[@SSJBen]

Yes. You wouldn't ask that question if you even understood how technical and physical tennis is at the highest level.

[@JackSmith-cd6eo]

@@SSJBen I wasn’t asking you buddy

By pro - do you mean someone who can money from tennis ? If so - yes. If you mean someone who makes money from prize money as a touring professional - no.
