Harika bir eğitim teşekkürler

[@BakeLikeAPro]

I love this guy ! his enthusiasm and energy is insane ! He makes me want to go hit tennis balls. Hi Grant ! I came across you on Instagram awhile ago and said wow I love this kid ! .... yeah I'm older than you hahaha. How come you don't live near me ? .... I would love to take a few lessons ! ( I'm in Canada ) Continued success with your channel ! Love your style and passion !! 🙂

[@brianlai1026]

Best video on the subject...and I've watched quite a few.

[@ivesclayton]

Thank you, Grant! Very useful vídeo! Obrigado, Grant! 🇧🇷🎾👊

[@dprz5624]

I' m french, and i like your video ! Thanks for your job, it help me a lot to understand the basic footstep and to improve my forehand quickly and surely ! Thanks again...

[@paolasala7172]

You are the best teacher in the world. Thanks so much for your video. I 'll buy your forehand system and I can't wait ti study it. Paola from Italy

[@LinhTran-gf5yv]

Love your earrings most

[@chaseleblanc2971]

Grant nice video, I went to get a 5 hour energy extra strength before my afternoon lessons. They were sold out. I now know why!

[@SAvito17]

You spoke all about the upper body. The rotation comes from legs and hip rotation?

[@jakedoit5380]

Amazing.. thank you so much for your lessons Bro🙏🎾

[@MakarasLT]

Hey Grant, could you make a video abuot one-handed backhand? 😎

[@joseph5304]

your good thanks 70 and still going

[@radhakrishan4406]

Great video & loved ur passion for teaching tennis. Thank you.

[@eggopower]

Great video - I think your emphasis of the proper contact point will help players who are using too much wrist at the wrong spot to create topspin is also key - will help players avoid bad mechanics & injury - love your content !

[@joaodenilli]

Man, I really appreciated all the lessons inside of this video.. it was really productive and a time of learning that I had watching it.. I'm struggling with my fh because many times I feel, even when I put a lot of pace on my stroke, I'm using my arms too much.. I have a strong feeling that my contact point is way too close to the body and I also need to relax more my wrists.. you're amazing, man.. tks for sharing with us this knowledge

[@suplus5731]

Thank's

[@suplus5731]

:)

[@bkatbamna]

Thank you for this great video. One thing that I find is that the harder I try to hit the forehand, the more I tense up and the slower the shot is.

[@GrantVanderHayden]

This is actually quite a common mistake. Although I can only guess at technically what is the root cause of your problem (sign up here for me to personally review your stroke www.grantvanderhayden.com/offers/LKoZReG2 ) It's likely that you are contracting (tensing) your bicep muscle while you swing. This brings your arm closer to your body and creates the sensation that although you are swinging hard, there is little to no result off the shot. I encourage you to sign up for that program so I can coach you personally 1 on 1 to world class forehand technique! Your coach, Grant

[@patrickhiggins2520]

Great video helped a lot cheers

[@joederosa9944]

GVH:Thanks, another great scientific explanation of the of the ATP forehand. Great uni-turn: elbow back; opposite hand on the choke at eye level; drop racket down with head over hand at 5:30. great tip with racket shake here too!

[@ruggierojerolli]

Keep on keep on Grant! We're paying tons of attention to every vid, to every detail of that awesome forehand you have and teach. The holy grail to master someday 😊

[@LubaLuba1]

Het which program are you using for your video now I think I might have a better one for you.

[@gtababa6958]

can you do the same thing here but in both 1HB and 2HB?

[@kaafaa8036]

i confirm, this kind of Forehand give most power and loud ball. But i think i do wrong, i should work harder, because mine is not like at 3:12 min relax &spin mine is more plate near to tennis net, and i can make it just 10 min, its need a good fit.

[@vladimirgetselevich4704]

What is your own USTA or alternatively UTR level?

[@barisay7244]

The racquet head is pointing down in most of your shots in this video, but when you explain you place the head pointing up. Why?

[@ncbassplayer]

What if you don’t have a straight armed forehand? Many people if not most have a bent elbow on forehand.

[@GrantVanderHayden]

GREAT question Jonathan! The same fundamentals still apply, whether the arm totally straight or bent. However what biomechanics research has found is that you will lose power & spin if you bend your elbow too far (~past 160 degrees) If you'd like me to personally review your forehand for even more clarity, join my membership by clicking this link: www.grantvanderhayden.com/offers/LKoZReG2 Your coach, Grant

[@ryanbakerproffitt1830]

Coach, how important is the straight arm? Like, is mostly straight okay? I’ve spent two years trying to move to a straight arm fh, thus moving my grip from SW towards eastern plus, and although I can do it, during match play I’m so inconsistent. I play fairly high level (5.5 singles, 4.5 doubles), so I’m just wondering if it’s okay for the arm to be a little bent (with true sw grip) versus being straight a contact? Thanks.

[@fizykaliceum8454]

Djokovic, Rublev, Serena Williams, Azarenka and most women play forehand with bent elbow and most rotation gain from forearm movement, not the wrist. It works for everybody. Forehand with straight elbow works only for very strong players. Weaker players lose control if they hit forehand with straight elbow. Forehand with straight elbow is the last thing you should recommend to enybody.

[@topspin1715]

@Grant I didn’t realize until watching this video I might be tensing on FH backswing leading to inconsistencies. Thanks for the tip!! Question about FH technique. As a righty playing against a righty, when do you recommend flattening out your FH? Here are some scenarios I am thinking. 1) Shoulder height or above ball and I want to aim cross court from deuce side or inside out to ad side. 2) Hip height ball in same position as example 1). And lastly 3) A short ball that landed inside service box. What would you suggest in terms of flat vs spin and anything else you would suggest for these scenarios. Sorry for the long list of questions

[@GrantVanderHayden]

GREAT questions! Getting the backswing right is an absolute must to world class technique! To simplify all your questions into 1 concise answer you want to think about what you are gaining/losing with flat vs spin. With a flatter stroke in most cases you will be able to generate more power and your follow through swing path can be more linear vs vertical. The trade-off is that topspin will give you a greater chance of sailing the ball long, or hitting the net because you'll have to aim slightly closer to the top of the net. In these situations it would make sense that on higher balls where you can find a favorable contact point, hitting flatter is preferred. This will also impact the skidding of the ball off the court (flatter staying lower), which can cause even greater damage to your opponent.

[@chtomlin]

You demo'd the swivel to slot entry instead of the flip and left out the hip drive needed for this technique.

[@twinwankel]

I would argue that the Nadal clip is not very indicative of how you should hit this ball. Nadal has no loading on his legs and there is no kinetic chain happening and as a result there's also no hip rotation as you demonstrated in your stroke. It's all upper body strength. I wouldn't hit this Nadal shot unless I had no choice but he could have chosen a better technique but that's not his style. He's so accustomed to buggy whipping that he wants to buggy whip everything which leads to poor technique. Fed's clip is the form to copy here. Much less effort and exactly what you demonstrate.

[@alteroccatv]

Dude… RF the GOAT probably, but his forehand ain’t an example for top spin… it’s virtually flat!!! 🤦‍♂️
