Recognizing An Early Weight Transfer During Groundstrokes

When performing groundstrokes, many beginners make the mistake of prematurely transferring their weight. They step forward too soon, losing all the power from their shift of body weight, and end up hitting the ball using arm-swing only. The result is a weak, poorly directed shot and the misperception that it takes a lot of strength to hit a tennis ball.

Recognizing an Early Weight Transfer

Here's a way to recognize an early weight transfer. If your back heel leaves the ground before they make contact with the ball, you've stepped forward too soon.

Better Technique

You will hit groundstrokes easier and harder if you step into the ball during the swing. Time your weight shift so you contact the ball just as you step from your back foot to the front foot.
