My coach has 2 funny ways of trying to make a point.
The first is stamp on the spider.
This is for the forehand backspin serve.
After the weight transfer of going back on the back leg he wants me to stamp on the spider using the front leg to bring the torso down during the serve swing. (I am stamping on jumping ants as I hate them more than spiders)
The second is twist the floor anticlockwise or clockwise.
This is used in the forehand loop.
From the stance position he wants my left foot to twist the floor clockwise to turn the left knee to point at the right leg.
Then he wants me to twist the floor anticlockwise to get the rotation for the forward stroke.
This actually seems to work for me!!!
