Tighten the racket too firmly

Hi Alois, Hi Jeff,

In one of your first videos I saw you saying not to over tighten the racket.
But, is this  a rule that applies all the time, or there are some shots where we need to forge strongly the racket?
This is because I suffer from epicondylitis and I think this problem is caused by the fact that in some cases I squeeze too strongly the racket doing hard braking of the arm at the end of the stroke.

Regards

Donato

Hi Donato,

I think in general having a looser grip is better.  We have filmed a new Pingpod on this which will be out next week.  Stay tuned.

Super coach and Jeffrey,

Pingpod #43 was very informative. But the audio was pretty bad and the camera kept going in and out of focus.

Hey Martinand,

Do you have YouTube? If so than you can go to YouTube and watch just about all of Pingskills videos there. As well as a lot of other good TT videos that will help you improve your game!!!
