EXPLAINED: POWER and SPIN in FOREHAND

Dear Readers,

In Newton's law ,

Force = Mass x Acceleration

What is acceleration ?

Change of Velocity / time

To apply it in tennis, what kind of acceleration and for what ?

Acceleration of Racket head to achieve BOTH the TOP spin effect and the POWeR

To achieve TOP spin

Angular Acceleration (otherwise known as WHIP)

To achieve POWER

Forward Acceleration

With these in mind, we need to achieve a Optimal mix of both to create the desired effect of both SPIN and POWER

SPIN + POWER = HEAVY

To create MAXIMUM acceleration we need to focus on delivering the bio-mechanics to bring racket to a MAXIMUM speed in the SHORTEST time possible.
