Want more power on your serve without forcing the swing? 🎾

The key is learning how to create better flow, better timing, and a smoother connection between the legs and the racket.

In this video, I break down a few of my favorite ways to build that:

• Stay fluid through the motion
• Practice the windmill or figure-8 pattern
• Pause briefly in the L-shape power position
• Explode with the legs before the racket enters the backscratch
• Start with a half motion and build up to the full serve

The goal is simple: more racket speed with less effort.
