Tennis Late Bloomer Diaries 🎾✨
a series documenting my progress as an adult beginner.
Apparently improving my second serve starts… on my knees 😂
One thing I’ve been trying to understand is how to get more spin on my second serve instead of just slowing down my first serve and hoping for the best 😅
My coach had me practise serving from my knees so I could stop thinking about everything else and focus on what my upper body and racket are actually doing.
🎾 Kneeling takes the legs out of the equation
🎾 It helped me focus on the racket path and brushing the ball
🎾 And most importantly, actually feeling the spin rather than just being told to “add more spin” 😂
Still learning, still working on it, and definitely still hoping my second serve actually lands in the box 😅
I’ll keep sharing what’s actually helping me as I learn in real time 🤍
Anyone else struggle with their second serve? 👇
