🚨 BEGINNER → NEXT-GEN FOREHAND

This is one of the most important decisions you can make with your forehand.

And there’s a LOT more to it than simply asking:

“Which technique is better?”

In this post, I break down the benefits AND risks of each progression — from beginner fundamentals all the way to a modern, next-gen forehand.

🎯 The goal isn’t to copy the most advanced technique.

The goal is to understand the RISK : REWARD of each step.

Because what gives you:
⚡ More power
🎯 More spin
📈 More potential

…can also give you:
❌ Less margin
❌ More timing demands
❌ More technical breakdowns

Advanced doesn’t automatically mean better.

It means you need the skill, timing, and control to actually cash in on the upside.

👉 Swipe through carefully — this one answers MANY of the questions I get about forehands.

Save this post. You’ll want to come back to it.

Where are you on the forehand progression? 👇
