<p><span style="color: #000000;">I was working with a student a few days ago when she abruptly questioned me: "Now why would I do it the way you're telling when 50 other guys are saying do it the opposite way?" </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">I answered, "That's the reason I wrote by book; because they are obvious not teaching you the truth about this technique. So who are you going to listen to: the guy who is showing you the better way that works or the guys who are obviously…</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">I answered, "That's the reason I wrote by book; because they are obvious not teaching you the truth about this technique. So who are you going to listen to: the guy who is showing you the better way that works or the guys who are obviously teaching the same cookie-cutter instruction that continues to fail you?</span></p>
<p>So here is the third excerpt from my book:</p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Myth #3</strong></span>: Hit the ball early, out in front of your body</p>
<p><strong>Truth:</strong> Wait on the ball, as though you're going to catch it, and then accelerate</p>
<p>the racquet at contact. Nothing destroyed the natural feel and timing for me</p>
<p>more than having a coach or a tennis instructor tell me to make contact out in</p>
<p>front of my body when hitting a forehand. First, it is nearly impossible to time</p>
<p>the ball correctly each time when hitting the ball in front of your left hip (a</p>
<p>forehand for right-handers; left handers reverse this technique); and second,</p>
<p>trying to contact the ball in front of the body causes tension and panic in the</p>
<p>stroke...because you're afraid of hitting the ball later. Instead wait on the ball to</p>
<p>come more to the side of your body—like you would if you were going to merely</p>
<p>catch it—and perform your swing.</p>

<p><strong>Tennis Myth And Truths</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I wrote my book, <strong>The 7 Most Destructive Tennis Myths - EXPOSED...</strong></p>
<p>because I am concerned that the traditional or conventional way of teaching</p>
<p>tennis has destroyed the natural, athletic way of learning and playing tennis. It</p>
<p>has instead created a very mechanical, almost robotic way of hitting the tennis</p>
<p>ball. Lost is the ease and natural flow of movement; there is no sense of feeling</p>
<p>the stroke; and there is too much thinking going on about the mechanics of the</p>
<p>stroke. I have seen this lead to frustration, and even anger sometimes, on the</p>
<p>court because a player isn't enjoying the game: he or she is incapable of</p>
<p>producing a consistent, reliable tennis stroke... and that's no fun.</p>
<p>Moreover, hitting the tennis ball improperly can also contribute to painful</p>
<p>tennis elbow or shoulder problems.</p>
<p></p>
<p>So what happens? A player may resort to taking even more tennis lessons from an instructor who</p>
<p>teaches him or her more of the same conventional or traditional methods. What's lost? More time, more</p>
<p>money, more enjoyment. While he or she watches other players getting better and loving the game even</p>
<p>more—because they are receiving the correct information—the frustration turns to despair and he or she</p>
<p>may stop playing all together. This doesn't have to happen to you! Tennis is easier to learn and play that</p>
<p>what you have experienced in the past. You recognize this because you are</p>
<p>reading my report right now... Clearly you are looking for new solutions.</p>
<p>When you read my book, <strong>The 7 Most Destructive Tennis</strong></p>
<p><strong>Myths - EXPOSED</strong>, you will learn how to move and stroke the tennis ball in a</p>
<p>more natural, efficient, and athletic way. You will also learn why these tennis</p>
<p>myths plagued your development and frustrated you for years. Furthermore,</p>
<p>you will learn corrective techniques and drills to aid you in making your strokes</p>
<p>smoother and effortless; your movement more coordinated and efficient; your</p>
<p>timing much better; and playing with more control—mentally and physically.</p>
<p>Hence, your strokes will improve; you will play better; and, you will enjoy your</p>
<p>time on the court. <strong>Tennis will be fun again!</strong></p>
<p></p>
<p>Here is an example of what you will learn in my book:</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Myth #1:</span></strong> Hold your racquet firmly and swing toward your target</p>
<p>Truth: This problem is most prevalent on the forehand side. You should hold</p>
<p>the racquet lightly and swing across the back of the ball from right to left (for</p>
<p>right-handers; left-handers reverse this technique). Holding the racquet with a</p>
<p>relaxed grip (fingers are loose on the racquet handle) allows you to accelerate</p>
<p>the racquet-head through the point of contact, yielding more spin, more pace on</p>
<p>your shot, and more control. You will actually decelerate when you hold the grip</p>
<p>too tight. In my book, I teach exactly how to insure that you are truly relaxing</p>
<p>your hand and fingers, and the correct swing path when performing your</p>
<p>forehand swing. Your forehand will be instantly transformed; and, you will be</p>
<p>taking the proper measures to help prevent tennis elbow and shoulder</p>
<p>problems.</p>
