Hi John, do you have any plans in the near future to release more doubles specific high speed footage? (A bit like the footage you already have in patterns but in high speed). I'm especially interested in serve returns on the ad and deuce sides at an angle relatively close to court level.

Apologies if hip to shoulder angle/ separation, immediately prior to forward movement on the FH or BH has already been discussed ad nauseum, but I feel like this is an efficient way to slowly increase power if timing can be tamed. I increased ball velocity, while maintaining control, by at least 25%.(gained so much power that I blew a lumbar disc-too late in life to implement!). Can you point to a clip that best represents a large angle? Since this is such a last second stretch prior to forward movement, it is hard to see. I wish someone would rig a waist and chest strap with embedded laser as a cheap way to help visualize the separation angle- still 2D, but better than the cost/time factor to try to digitize it.

Doc,
I think you are thinking about this the wrong way. Yes the great players have it but they certainly don't know it or try to create it. I hope that had nothing to do with your injury. Get a full turn and left arm stretch and set up in a semi-open stance. (See some of the preparation articles in Advanced Tennis). That will maximize you power and that angle. The tricky thing with these biomechanical constructs even when true is cause and effect.

John, I cannot get the frame by frame videos working in this article https://www.tennisplayer.net/members...protocols.html
Is it my end or yours that's the problem?
