All of the top pros have well synchronized arms from start to finish but I've seen so amateurs unaware of their non-hitting arm. This is especially true if your opponent is struggling just as you are. The transformation was amazing and I got my old forehand back! I have lots more to say on contact points but I won't go into depth with that here - just do the right thing and hit in front. I cannot emphasize this point enough; it's so simple but yet so often over-looked. I've seen it all from dropping like a lead weight to flying up in the air, or (I especially see this one!) scissoring across the body having started too far to the left (for a right hander), and many more comedy moments! These movements all effect balance and cause the racket to be out of sync with the body's elastic momentum. By simply starting out slowly and playing normally, you'll become more relaxed. Concentrate on flowing through the shot using all of your kinetic energy and watch that timing!When you are preparing for a big tennis match, it can be quite tought to stay focused and keep your head cool and you will have the upper hand in big matches.
