Backhand power
Strokes

Hi coach
What is the best way to ensure i can generate consistent power on my backhands whilst still maintaining a high level of precision?

Hi Timothy,
Speed and accuracy tend to work in opposition to each other. However, if you focus on good technique you will give yourself the best chance of making the stroke.
Take a look at the lesson on the Advanced Backhand Topspin.

Forehand Counterhit
The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:
- Your feet position
- Your start position
- Your finish position
If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
