This Is Why You Keep Missing Easy Tennis Volleys!
You’ve heard it forever in your tennis lessons:
“Step and volley.”
“Step with your opposite foot.”
“Step and punch.”
But almost nobody explains WHEN the step should actually happen.
And that missing detail is exactly why so many recreational players lose balance, mistime contact, and miss easy volleys.
In this video, I break down:
* Why planting before contact kills your balance
* The correct timing of the stride through the volley
* How to stay balanced and move through the ball
* Which leg actually creates the power on forehand and backhand volleys
* Why volleys in real matches are completely different from feeding drills
* Slow-motion examples from Casper Ruud and Serena Williams
Once you understand this timing detail, your volleys will immediately feel more stable, effortless, and controlled.
If you struggle with floating volleys, unstable contact, or missing easy volleys at net — this video is for you.
