Finally, I can hit a strong service since more than 15 years. I always wanted to hit a big service. There was a problem … my time wasn’t big, I could not create any power and often had a bitter shoulder.
All changed now. I went to hit a consistent between 100 mph service 110-120mph.
Interestingly, I have never changed my service technique. But my mechanics have improved. My shoulder over all this doesn’t hurt anymore.
How was it? One thing is clear, how I learned how to organize service experiences. When to make the target or feeling, he had to practice.
But outside this – for a long time readers will know – I have been dedicated to physical preparation since I was in my twenty years old.
I can’t say that the positive changes in the game are just a result as a result of court education. But I would claim that he played the biggest role.
I will offer 3 ways in this article, can have a positive impact on your trial training service. Others are definitely available, but these 3 most listed.
# 1 – Teach Kinetic Chain Connection + Transfer
As I mentioned in the blog post last week, we are affected by our ability to use the service + from our ability to transfer the ball to the ground. Each link (body segment) plays a role in this transfer.
Often, the motor systems of players who do not pay this segmentation on time need a “restart” a ‘restart’.
What I mean is that they do not start the movement of some body parts at the right moment. Or, do not do it in the correct sequence. This becomes a very inefficient way to serve – especially if you apply a lot of force, but lose along the way.
The next links of the kinetic chain are for maximum power transmission (shoulder, arm, missile), this time + sequence key.
How can we achieve this? A way of winning cooperation. But the service can be quite technically and complex. Often, the players need other entries.
This is where the training can act as a great tool. A good way to solve the sequence of kinetic chain is med ball training and Olympic lifter.
Oly elevators
Olympic elevators must transfer energy not only to use the athletes, but also to use a place of kinetic chains.
Many contrary to the believers, Olympic elevators are carried by a relatively comfortable upper body (and usually upper weapon). The lower body is the thing that creates the required force to lift heavy loads. When athletes use many arms, ‘forcing’ the lift. Often, this results in failed attempts and the wrong use of the body.
There is also a high level dynamic correspondence (DC) between certain tennis strokes and Olympic elevators. The service and shaking (push or break down) have a relatively high DC. Therefore, Push Jerk and Split Cerk are both my integral exercises Max The program.
Medical Ball (MB) training
Med education is widely used in tennis; for good reason. The problem I encountered when Working with players or Mentor coachesOnce again, the ball, legs, hips, instead of the trunk (in this order) over the goals over the goals.
During the med, the weapons should act as a channel to allow the expression of power in a certain direction. They are not the main bodyguard of power.
The direction aspect is important and all is important to learn to show the power of vertical, horizontally and diagonally. It is especially true for various movement planes and rotation plans of different body segments. They are all in fractions of one second.
