You are welcome! 

Excited to have him join in and provide additional articles here.  It has always been my passion that this would be a great forum for instructional tennis.  That's why I originally started the forum 10+ years ago.

Hey guys,

I am excited to get some good tennis discussion going here and hopefully help you guys improve your game!

To get this started I want to post one of my recent video tips here on the kinetic chain. Lots of people have heard about the term but don't know what it really means for their tennis. Let me know what you guys think of the tip!

Tennis Tip: The Kinetic Chain

Some question for you to answer:

- Thinking about your own strokes do you think you are making good use of the kinetic chain ?

- Most people struggle with involving the lower body on groundstrokes. How about yourself ?

Welcome to T4U Florian!

Great topic for first video.
Format is clean and concise.
Stroke comparison very helpful.

When I have time and am in position I try to use the lower body.
Most often I end up compensating for being late by using the upper body.

Glad to hear that you enjoyed the tip!

Good preparation is the key for not being late so often and good preparation starts with turning the body and not using the arms so much in the beginning

Hope that helps!

Florian

Great analysis, I have seen both tennis players and golfers with slim body types hit huge serves and drives using proper technique and using the entire body as mentioned.

This was very helpful tip, for me when Im not in position and cant use my entire body for stroke the shot was never as good as in first case.
