Hip Injuries and the Open Stance Forehand (1 of 5) Gustavo Kuerten's open-stance forehand movement drill from the center of the baseline, filmed from a side angle. His follow-through wraps across his body while his weight transfers onto his outside leg, and he quickly returns his hands to a neutral ready position to simulate recovery for the next shot.
27.9s
Preventing Wrist Injuries (1 of 5) Tennis player's forehand from the center of the baseline, filmed from a side CourtLevel angle. The hips load with a noticeable coil as the knees flex deeply, then the legs drive upward and forward to uncoil the hips into contact.
10.5s
Preventing Serving Injuries (1 of 8) Venus's serve from a neutral court position, filmed from a side angle. Her continental grip is clearly visible, with a relaxed hand and pronounced wrist pronation through contact to reduce strain on the elbow and shoulder.
12.1s
Preventing Serving Injuries (2 of 8) Federer's serve motion from a neutral position, filmed from an animation-style side angle. The side view makes it easy to see the loose continental grip and the pronounced wrist pronation as the racquet accelerates up through contact.
12.8s
Hip Injuries and the Open Stance Forehand (2 of 5) Guga's forehand from the middle of the court, filmed from a side angle. His open stance forehand load features deep knee flexion and strong external hip rotation on the outside leg before he drives up and across the court.
15.8s
Open Stance Forehand: Injuries and Prevention (2 of 6) Scott Riewald’s open-stance FH physical training drill from the center of the baseline, filmed from a side angle. The side view makes it easy to see the forehand grip stay relatively relaxed while the wrist maintains a neutral position with minimal excessive lag during the rotation phase.
10.5s
Preventing Wrist Injuries (2 of 5) Nadia's forehand groundstroke from the center of the baseline, filmed from a side CourtLevel angle. Her follow-through finishes high with the racquet above shoulder level while her non-hitting hand extends back for counterbalance as she transfers weight onto her front foot and quickly resets into a ready position.
7.3s
Open Stance Forehand: Injuries and Prevention (3 of 6) Kim’s forehand from the center of the baseline in an open stance, filmed from a side CourtLevel angle. Her feet land in a wide open stance with the outside leg loading first, followed by a small recovery step that brings her back toward a neutral position after contact.
14.4s
Preventing Serving Injuries (3 of 8) Scott Riewald’s medicine ball throwing drill from the center of the court, filmed from a side angle. At the release point, the athlete’s hands extend forward at roughly chest height with the ball leaving in line with an overhead throwing motion that mimics the racket path on a serve.
8.1s
Hip Injuries and the Open Stance Forehand (3 of 5) Scott Riewald's monster walk hip-strengthening drill at the baseline, filmed from a side angle. The athlete maintains a slight squat stance with deliberate lateral steps, keeping knees aligned over the feet to simulate stable open-stance loading patterns.
11.1s
Preventing Wrist Injuries (3 of 5) Tennis player's wrist flexion animation from a neutral position, filmed from a side angle. The animation clearly depicts controlled wrist flexion and extension with a neutral forearm, emphasizing how excessive wrist bend and grip tension can be minimized to reduce injury risk.
8.8s
Hip Injuries and the Open Stance Forehand (4 of 5) Scott Riewald's physical training drill for hip stability and open-stance FH mechanics, filmed from a court-level side angle. The contact phase emphasizes the racket face staying relatively square to the intended target line with contact made slightly in front of the lead hip to reduce hip stress during the open-stance forehand motion.
7.2s
Preventing Wrist Injuries (4 of 5) Tennis player's wrist-strength training drill at close range, filmed from a front court-level angle. The athlete keeps a stable lower body with a slight knee bend while isolating forearm and wrist movement, using a balanced stance to limit excess shoulder or trunk involvement.
10.7s
Preventing Serving Injuries (5 of 8) Scott Riewald's high pull exercise in the gym, filmed from a side angle. The side view makes it easy to see the coordinated upward rotation of the shoulders and rapid trunk extension that link lower-body drive to upper-body force production relevant for serving.
8.7s
Hip Injuries and the Open Stance Forehand (5 of 5) Scott Riewald’s hip flexor physical training drill on court, filmed from a side angle. The side view makes the degree of trunk lean and timing of shoulder alignment relative to hip flexion especially clear during each repetition.
6.5s
Open Stance Forehand: Injuries and Prevention (5 of 6) Scott Riewald's straight-arm row physical training exercise, filmed from a side angle. The side view makes it easy to see the scapular movement and trunk stability as the shoulder girdle retracts without excessive spinal rotation during the pull.
6s
Preventing Wrist Injuries (5 of 5) Scott Riewald's wrist deviation animation for tennis stroke mechanics, filmed from a side view. The racket face angle and degree of wrist ulnar and radial deviation at contact are clearly illustrated relative to the forearm alignment.
12s
Open Stance Forehand: Injuries and Prevention (6 of 6) Scott Riewald's external shoulder rotation exercise for the forehand, filmed from a side CourtLevel angle. The racket is fixed in a neutral position while the arm moves, emphasizing controlled external rotation at contact height similar to a forehand strike.
5.9s
Preventing Serving Injuries (6 of 8) A tennis player performs a prone bridge core stability exercise on the court, filmed from a side angle. The athlete keeps a straight line from shoulders to ankles while engaging the core and glutes, with feet planted hip-width apart to train a stable, neutral body position important for controlled serving footwork and stance.
4.1s
Preventing Serving Injuries (7 of 8) Scott Riewald’s stability ball core exercise, filmed from a side CourtLevel angle. His follow-through into the hold position keeps the torso steady over the ball while the non-working arm stays engaged to help maintain alignment and readiness for the next repetition.
5.9s
Preventing Serving Injuries (8 of 8) Scott Riewald's stability ball shoulder and trunk training drill, filmed from a side angle at court level. The video makes clear how the athlete keeps the trunk relatively stable while the shoulders move through controlled external rotation, emphasizing dissociation between shoulder motion and torso movement for serve-injury prevention.
9.5s
Open Stance Forehand: Injuries and Prevention (1 of 6) Kim’s forehand from a neutral central position, filmed from a side CourtLevel angle. After contact she finishes with the racquet wrapping high across her body while her weight stays mostly on the outside leg before she resets into a ready position.
12.2s
Preventing Serving Injuries (4 of 8) Scott Riewald’s forehand groundstroke from the center of the baseline, filmed from a court-level side angle. His hips stay closed through the loading phase with a deep knee bend, then uncoil as the legs drive up to create a clear low-to-high motion through contact.
6.4s
Open Stance Forehand: Injuries and Prevention (4 of 6) Scott Riewald's open-stance forehand movement drill from the center of the baseline, filmed from a side CourtLevel angle. The hips stay relatively open while the knees load deeply, emphasizing leg drive upward through a low-to-high pull pattern.
