ANCHOR THE LOWER BODY!
November 2025
For those who believe on the Word of GOD as being True and for our benefit Matthew 7:24-27 tells us a wise man builds his house on a rock for a solid foundation that stands the test of time, or on the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
We can relate this to our tennis game in that in order to build a solid game we MUST build a solid foundation. The lower body should be anchored as we hit. We will occasionally see the pros jump as they hit a ball but that is a bit of signature or flair for them and they ONLY do it on an occasional basis. Even though in real time it is done quickly professional/advanced players are where they are because they make a step to hit and as they do that they anchor their lower body - they plant the feet solidly and hit. Long term success comes from building a solid foundation - avoid “running” thru the shot - anchor the lower body and hit a good ball, then continue to move.
Go hit ‘em good and most important HAVE FUN!
