Episode 12: How Much Should I Spend on a New Racket?

The Gravity Tennis Podcast ·

2023/05/12

One of the most common questions I get asked as a tennis pro is which racket my student's should purchase. In this buying guide, I will advise you on the most important factors to consider to ensure you get a quality racket that fits your size and playing style, and without overpaying. When choosing a first racket, avoid both the cheapest and most expensive of rackets. Also look for a modestly sized racket of 97 - 108 square inches. Feel free to check out the links on my blogpost of the

Episode 11: How Heavy Should Your Racket Be?

The Gravity Tennis Podcast ·

2023/05/05

Here is a 2020 update to the debate on heavy vs light tennis rackets. Above is my full take, but here are a few conclusions: 1) Light rackets can handle soft to medium paced rallies. The ball gains momentum with added speed. Thus, the ball "feels" heavier because it is, practically speaking, actually heavier! 2) Relatively speaking, heavier rackets confer more of their own force to the ball. More mass is basically required at higher levels of play. 3) It doesn't necessarily take an

The Gravity Tennis Podcast ·

2023/04/07

Have you ever played someone who always seems to be in the right place at the right time? Do you get beaten by opponents with weaker strokes than you, even when you feel like you're playing pretty well? If the answer to these questions is yes, there is probably a simple reason why: They are recovering to the right place on the court, and you are not. This is not a question of hustle or fitness, but of geometry. If you are always returning to the center of the baseline after your

Episode 8: Stop "Forrest Gumping" your tennis game!

The Gravity Tennis Podcast ·

2023/03/30

You're probably wondering what I mean by this provocative title. I'll explain: In a pivotal part of the movie Forrest Gump, child Forrest is being chased by bullies. Confined to a stiff body-braces, he struggles to outrun them, until the braces unexpectedly break away. Free of their limitations, Forrest discovers he can actually run exceptionally fast, and easily escapes his tormentors. When I see tennis players who overly rely on tension, it reminds me of this scene. They often struggle to

The Gravity Tennis Podcast ·

2023/03/23

Regardless of your playing level, you've experienced this at least once: the shot that just felt perfect. What did it feel like? Chances are it felt different. It sounded different. It felt almost like the shot was automatic, like you could feel the shot coming even before contact. But the question today is, does it matter? Are perfect shots lucky flukes, or something you can build a game around? I used to believe the former, but as I began experimenting with a looser playing style,
