So now let's talk a little bit about where you would hit the attacking forehand where you would not hit the attacking forehand. So again, if I'm one meter behind the baseline right here, I would probably not be trying to hit the winning forehand. But that doesn't mean that a forehand cannot be attacking. Not gonna be probably the winner, but it can be attacking aggressive deep ball. Yeah, so when you want me to behind the baseline, always recommend Of course, always override like last step. From a small man, you won't have a bigger backswing because you're covering much more distance and you want to hit it nice and deep and ideally also quite high.

So the ball is quite high, so you get additional topspin on the ball is gonna be very heavy. And again, remember you putting the wall weight of your ball into the ball. So really the right hip on the right shoulder really come into it to closing the racket after you hit. You bring the racket forward. You mentioned racket goes forward around Head Head, and then in closing up. So right after this, the bottom of the grip, again is pointing the net, so it's always here.

And the idea of the deep forehand is you want to have it nice and deep, you come into court and moving your opponent's side to side with the deep balls. So it's already an attacking forehand, if you can do that right. Now, if you wouldn't have a ball around the baseline, you would have a ball around here, which allows you to step in more more, let's say the ball bounces around the service line to three quarters of the court. It doesn't bounce so deep. So you have kind of chance to attack how we say attack anything that goes between the service line and three quarters of the core. So from about here, up to the service line.

Of course, if it bounced in a box, there's no question you go and attack it, but you can also attack these books. Also Gothic is again, they're waiting for the ball until it's too short. Sometimes he never comes if you play somebody quite good. Sometimes they don't again, they don't even give you like the balls that are so short. But they will give you lots of these balls that are between the service line and three quarters of the court. So that's already attackable you can attack this, you just stepped inside the court.

Again, what pros do so well. So imagine I'm here, I'm hitting a long rally, volleyball, volleyball, and suddenly something short a step in. And then of course, again, I start transferring from the right leg on to the left. And as I'm hitting flow will go into the ball, and then I will try to attack that forehand. So anything around here, you want to go for it. You want to attack it already, and then maybe come to the net either volley or just you know, we'll just finish the point already with a forehand, which is, of course that's that's the main idea.

But it's important to wait a little bit patient, you don't attack everything. That's the baseline behind the baseline. That's what I said before. So as long as it's bouncing between three quarters of the court today slide, just pulling it back, just putting the ball back into play. But you are becoming step by step aggressive by one d by going side to side with lots of spin. Also, not necessarily to spin this is up to you, this is up to you.

Again, you don't have so much pain, it's fine. Just make sure it's nice and stable and well placed. So the idea is you're trying to take your opponent out of the position. And when he's out of the position when he gives you that shorter ball, this is when you coming in and you're attacking and this is when the massive form will come in handy. And this is when we're going to be winning points. And sometimes it doesn't even have to be massive.

I mean, this session we're talking about is to have a big forehand, fast forehand accuracy. And sometimes you put him out of position or a bit of fortunes from behind the baseline, the deep ones against your short ball and because he's well behind the baseline because he was dealing with a deep balls and you can just tell those getting dropped shot and the game is over. Fantastic. Another way for drop shot is also attacking forehand. Yeah, it's not the defensive shot. It's an attacking aggressive for and I use it a lot.

I used to I use more my my back end rock shot, but also foreign sometimes when it comes to it but there will be another session to talk about. So we have these positions I'm going to talk about it likes when I'm behind the baseline, a more kind of semi open, okay. And this kind of angle is kind of position. I'm on my right leg that I'm transferring onto the ball, I have a bigger backswing bigger follow through I'm really finishing up here as much as I can to make sure I have a, you know, deep balls. When the ball is on the baseline I would literally use fan of open stance. Also something open depends again on the position of the ball position.

I'm here open stance, recover, when the ball is shorter, let it be more closed. You can also open Of course, as the motorway you can do the open or you can recall. This is up to you if you decide to keep going to the mat. Again, the power Always with a rifle. So even if I'm right here, I'm pushing from this one, you can see I'm pushing and I'm hitting the ball, the right part of my body. That's the main idea.

So this part of your body really comes in and hits the ball hard. That's the main idea. You really want to unlock it, unleash it, just let it go. Let it go all the way. Now let's get into some exercises. I'll show you some really great exercises, how you can improve all this and how we can start taking your forehand to the next level.
