How To Generate EFFORTLESS POWER On The Tennis SERVE In 3 Steps

[@gregtanner8501]

I am blown away by the power of your serve when you are just teaching, zero effort and it is a missile.

[@robertoiturra7005]

I'm a kinesiologist who likes to do tennis research, and your videos are so scientifcally accurate that in my opinion it makes learning and training more intuitive. With evidence on your side, it's easier to apply fundamentals on the tennis court. Keep up the outstanding job you're doing!

[@RacquetFlex]

Thank you for your kind words Roberto! I'm glad we're able to help. We certainly will! - Daytri

[@Nikita_Tikhonov]

Absolutely true

[@manmy016]

He got all of this from Rick Macci, who started teaching technique based on a guy who did a PhD in the biomechanics of tennis

[@therealTOTOfan]

using kinesiologist, research and scientifically in one sentence contradicts itself lol

[@MyPajamaman]

You know how sometimes people have been saying something to you your whole life and it just doesn't reach you, and then suddenly somebody comes along and says the same thing, but in a way that immediately makes sense to you and you get it? This was that video for me! I have been making slow motion videos of the pros for a while now and was wondering how they got their racket back so far behind them on their serve, but when he showed the baseball pitcher's motion, and connected it to the serve, I had an epiphany! Great video. Great explanations

[@Motenai]

Tennis coach here... to everybody reading and watching this video and for what little is worth, I totally endorse the full content of it. It is beautifully explained and the science behind it is solid. While accuracy and power for the serve come from different places as well (from the ball toss to the leg work, for instance), the three main points of the video are undeniable. I always tell my students that the irony of this sport is that the most complextmovement in tennis is the only one where you throw the ball yourself! Very well done, you found yourselves a new sub.

[@quinnmorris2317]

Who asked?

[@harryherman5371]

I have a big serve but I feel like I muscle it. What percentage power should it feel like on the first serve?

[@Motenai]

@@harryherman5371 if you feel like you muscle it, it's probably something you'll feel regardless of effort level. I'd bet it has something to do with the movement itself that has some room for improvement. Be sure you reach trophy position and follow up through the motion fluently. Specifically check your shoulders (your left shoulder should be higher than the left one at toss and the opposite at hit) and reach high with your arm and body, as if you would like to hit the ball with your forehead.

[@richardcrowe1429]

@@quinnmorris2317 😂 settle down buddy

[@MrUnderdogArt]

@Motenai you have no credibility to endorse anything, just enjoy the video like everyone else.

[@LauncherSpiderMk7]

This is one of the best explanations I've seen. A lot of so-called coaches undervalue the power of using precise language when explaining a technique.

[@jacnella2419]

Most surprising is how virtually none of the 3 coaches I've had have ever explained this significant difference and advantageous method that pro's use. I've learnt so much more through videos such as yours. Understanding the arm position on raising it, the 'drop' and pull in a kinetic chain momententum is key for power and speed. Great video.

[@Hvmpydvmpty]

As a fellow coach I must say I his is the best video on the serve I have seen so far. Well done.

[@yuyifu]

Great tutorial! When I played yesterday, just by remembering these 3 steps, my services were powerful and consistent! Love that feeling! Thanks!

[@aaronrussell5047]

Awesome video. I love how you explain the technical details so thoroughly. The power and inconsistency in my serve has always fluctuated. After watching this video, I hit one practice session then played a match the next day where I was 70-80% on my first serve, and they almost never came back. For context, I've probably been playing at 40-60% first serve % this year, sometimes while losing power. This video as well as the "Perfect Tennis Serve Contact Point and How to Find It" helped me understand the serve so much better and simplified my approach. I also love the PhD level explanations sprinkled in with an occasional Beavis and Butthead laugh. It's endearing, keeps it light and funny.

[@RacquetFlex]

Thank you for the kind words and for sharing your experience Aaron! I'm doing a happy dance right now, hahaha. Let me know if there's any topics you'd like us to cover next! - Daytri

[@glenberberet8418]

As a fellow Lefty I really enjoy your instruction. Not only is it informative but your personality makes it fun to watch . Looking forward to your next video

[@georgedewey6439]

During the pandemic our family started playing tennis as the major form of exercise....I have been watching a ton of videos....and I must say your videos are some of the most helpful....I also am amazed at how fast you guys serve....it's clear you can teach and you can do it as well....keep up the good work!

[@RW-ws9dp]

Have to give it to you guys…your videos (teaching/presentation style and the topics you choose) are golden. Hope you are getting all the benefits.

[@jacksonchapman8390]

I have 30 years experience with the top players and coaches in the world- your demonstration is the best I’ve ever seen!

[@santiVillaflor]

I tried changing my son’s serve with this technique, and seems to work. Best serve lesson in KZbin! Thanks!

[@richardcrowe1429]

These videos are good but watch some Rick Macci USTPA. Dudes a legend. Patrick M. too. He’s Holger Runes coach 👍

[@careydunn8227]

so glad Essential Tennis referenced you. After watching a few of your serve videos i adjusted my shoulder serve motion and mechanics and my shoulder did not hurt after playing for 1 1/2 hours!!!!! felt great. have to work on ball movement now to accommodate for a better serve motion but is well worth it. BYW my flat serve had more mph and felt easier. Thanks. can't wait to incorporate the rest of your info!!!

[@JohnHoganN8]

Best explanation of service preparation I have seen. Respect to you young man. 👍🇬🇧

[@rinz-n-repeat]

Probably the BEST explanation of racket position and how to get into that position I have seen.

[@sreedharmohan6079]

I tried many many videos on the tennis serve, but this one was outstanding to show results in my serve. I shared it to my friend and he said it improved 20 mph to his serve. Thank you very much!!

[@RacquetFlex]

Hi Sreedhar, we are so amazing and happy to hear that your friend has started to see progress on his serve! Tell him to keep up the great work 🙂 Thanks for sharing!

[@robertburns9075]

Dude, you’re amazing! Love this video. Science, physiology, humor and the serve I have always dreamed of. Thanks you!

[@ParkerSullivan-j1r]

This helped me so much, thank you! I was frustrated for awhile with my serve, and this video made it 2x faster, more fluid, and helped my shoulder pain. Thanks man!!

[@silviosarunic3234]

you literally explaind the most complex serve in tennis history- serve of Roger Federer!!!! great video

[@chrismanteris9093]

Who says it’s most complicated? Looks simple

[@divyanshupatel2326]

@@chrismanteris9093 just look at the motion of Roger's right arm

[@andreyofdoom]

Federer has a very simple classic serve motion actually. It is still very hard to replicate because he has his own style and smoothness.

[@andrehanderson]

You're the best instructor on KZbin, which is saying a lot.

[@lordenishi3714]

Yo, I’ve been checking ya’ll out for a minute. This is one of the 3% of correct information on the Internet for technique. Keep up the good work. Also this was the best video, just based on presentation and joking/personality, it shows more of you both. That dope, keep teaching the truth 💪🏾

[@RacquetFlex]

Thank you Lord Enishi, I appreciate that!

[@felixharawa371]

Thanks to you guys, I have been working on my serve all summer. I watched you video last night (less than 24hrs ago) Went out and did what you guys were talking about, SWOOSH. All I was saying was lamboginee. Because of your video , you guys just like added like so much power to my serve. I dare say it, you guys being dark like me make me so proud. You guys are amongst the best technical coaches. Now this is my advice to yous, keep it up and keep sharing, above all stay fit and stay safe from injuries. Ps Ive pressed like.

[@annxiao7721]

I'm here to say thank you. I bumped into ur channel and watched a few for bed time last night and tried those techniques just now, surprisingly they really work and I'm seeing results in just 20 min. I'm so happy about it!

[@jeffreyhoffman7050]

I have watched many videos on the service motion. This is the best breakdown I have seen.

I've never done tennis in my life. I signed myself up to a 6 week tennis session starting next week. Thank you for this as it will help kick start my practice.

[@Solarman1964]

This video makes it clear that the last second snap action is more important that an early smooth drop of the racket behind your back...that's good teaching..

[@abrahamrockers6265]

I CANNOT EMPHASIZE ENOUGH how much this video gave me within 24hours. I watched it yesterday,and found out what I did wrong for years in my serve. I bought a box of balls,went excersizing serves in the morning all alone watching your video. It worked! I just came back from our weekly match and my serve was better and safer than ever before. holding the racket flat Like the quarterback throw was the key! I cant be thankful enough

[@jontylerturlington9409]

the best explanation of the technical side of the serve i’ve seen

[@KENT6078965]

Awesome vid ! Finally got what exactly pronation is after 10 years playing ! Thanks

[@afakethrum]

Great video. I wish you add more of those slow motion videos. Your demonstrations as you explain the concept is more like flexing. Racquet flexing, if I may.

[@timtom3137]

Best lesson i ever seen. Will show it my coach. Till this time i was not understand what should I do to do all properly. Thank you very much !!!

[@pronation888]

nice, i thought the pro drop, was taking the hat off the head or scratch the back as I got taught, but its really rotating the torso and driving the legs, which forces the racquet head to drop. wow

[@jimpoole6037]

I am a physician and enjoyed your natural movement discussion, right on!

[@aojajena]

This is beautiful! Thank you guys for doing this - really conceptual aspects explained and demonstrated in understandable way! Also, that wrist joke was a pearl, I laughed for 2 minutes!! Will appreciate the wrist roll on forehand, I can't create enough acceleration, obviously some kinetic gap happens... IMHO must be similar to snap & pronation on serve.

[@chrisstirling4035]

So well explained . Best serve video I’ve seen 🎾🎾👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@larsoestergaard2247]

Well done - a very well prepared video on serve power - extremely well explained and visualised. The next step would be talking about position of ball toss and use of leg power

[@tberry79]

Yeah, he is able to swing his arm REALLY fast. That makes the serve so much better. One of the issues I have on my serve is not being able to swing my arm very fast; which means my serves don’t get as much pace on them

Let's go, Chase!! So happy to hear that your student is getting success with this. Keep at it!!

[@gshores100]

Thanks to you, I now have a better serve.

[@soothsayer2406]

Awesome, Awesome video!! Best explanation I have seen over the entire internet.... To make his video super perfect can you slowly go through the forearm rotation starting from the tennis knife edge......ie from the tennis knife edge your smoothly snap your forearm to get the racket string facing the ball at contact...When you performed that part of the serve in the video...it was way too fast to see this forearm snap rotation. although the explanation was good....it would be really great if you showed that in slow motion so people can understand how exactly the ball will be hit from the knife edge position....
