TIP OF THE DAY - Avoid the Death Grip

AVOID THE DEATH GRIP!

You will generate more pace by hitting with a relaxed arm rather than squeezing the paddle and trying to muscle it. In fact trying too hard to swing fast will only make you hit slower. A relaxed arm acts more like a whip; it generates more paddle speed and creates a kinetic chain. This is why the best players look so effortless but hit the ball so hard. They are fully relaxed as they swing.
