Serve

Introduction:
from very begining, very basic, how to use your leg mulscle, rotation of ur hips, your shoulders, the snap of the wrist, put them together to gain ultimate server.
to gain the power of the serve, to gain the spin of the kick serve, to gain the accuracy on ur slice serve. to make the serve a weapon.

PROPER SERVE GRIP:
the first thing we work on is the grip, like the other stroke, the grip is so important. on the serve, it is continental grip. too often i see the people who wonder why he can't get the power serve. he is big guy. and he hit the ball hard. the reason is he use semi-wester or easter grip. this grip put the forearm, put the hand in the proper position. so we can snap the ball all the way through. so move to continental grip, then we can move on and do the rest of serve . u r gonna get the power and spin u r looking for.

Serve preparation stages:
come up to the line and get our feet set in the proper position. the left foot should be forward, pointing at the right net pole or 90 degree to the service line. i personally like it. what it does is it already turn the hip slightly. so we r ready to get into the loading position.
preparation stage 1: relax, go through the exact same routine, step by step. everytime we get to the court.
my weight is mainly on my front foot. it is nice and relax and i am well balanced. once i get my feet in the proper positon, i already get my hip rotated. i bounce the ball a couple of time. again, find ur routine, do the routine everytime. whether it is the first poinnt of ur match or the last point of match. then get urself set, get the ball and the raquet in the fron. once u r in this position, we can move on what we called loading position.
at this stage, we start with rotating our shoulder, dropping the weight to the back foot. down together and up together.
one of the hardest thing in the serve is the toss. if u can get the toss to the same place each time, u r gonna be so far ahead of ur component. too often i saw the people holding the ball one palm of the hand. they toss the ball with the bend ball, so sometimes here, sometime overthere. if we toss the ball with the finger tips, with the arm extended, that is the distance in the court we want the ball to be. it is 2,3 feet in side the court where we can hit the ball really hard.
so: preparation position-->down-->rotate shoulder and hip--> rotate the weight back-->down together and up together-->toss the ball into air. that the power position , like the tennis trophy. if we can make the motion together, we can make the serve so much easier.
for the back foot, either step back position or step up position. either higher vertical power or highter horizontal power, depending what we do. the power of the serve come from the biggest musual in our body, the leg mulsal. if u see the great server, they really bend their knee down, drive the leg up to the ball. that is the part most of server do not utilize. that is why u can see 90 pounds boy hit incredible serve. they learned how to drive up the leg, how to relax to snap through that ball.

preparation -->loading-->exploding, just as throwing motion. simpualize it and relax. don't think about it too much because u won't be relax.
toss the ball: extending the arm. this distance did not change too much all over the whole life.
exploding: reach and snap and follow through. same as throwing motion.

preparation stage:
-1,front foot point to right net pole. -2, move the ball to front foot. -3, hold the ball with finger tips -4, bounce the ball a couple of time. >> find your routine and do it every time

load stage:
-1, down together -2, rotate the shoulder, hip and the weight back -3, bend the knee -4, up together -5, extend the arm and toss the ball to 2,3 feet inside the court where we can hit the ball really hard.

exploding stage:
-1, drive the body up with leg mulsules and reach the ball
-2, reach the ball and snap the wrist and follow through cross the body.
-3, move yourself into the court.
