| Tennis Training Aids - Tac Tic Knee Trainer |
| After the split step to
volley After the split get low enough to move aggressively at the net and try to keep the Knee Trainer in the clicked or bent position. The trainer would only unclick when the player extends upwards for high volleys. Otherwise, in particular at the net, stay in the low position to move and handle those challenging low and net height volleys. |

Forehand groundstrokes The concept of loading for topspin groundstrokes is commonly accepted. This is a situation where the Tac Tic Knee Trainer really shines. Heres a simple exercise. With a partner, coach, or ball machine feeding balls, start upright, with the device in the unclicked position. Then click to the loaded position before striking the ball. |
| Two-handed backhand topspin groundstrokes
Loading for a topspin one-handed or two-handed backhand is similar in principal to bending in the knees for topspin forehands. The point is that loading energy into the ground (thus clicking the Tac Tic Knee Trainer) creates linear or vertical energy into striking topspin groundstrokes. |

Serve The Tac Tic Knee Trainer is just terrific for helping players gain a better feel for loading on the serve. Start straight as you would for any normal serving motion. In this position, the Knee Trainer is unclicked or straight. Then toss the ball and load into the bent or clicked position. Especially when serving, the Tac Tic is dramatic as a powerful tool for practicing the knee bend, a critically important aspect of developing a solid serve in tennis. |
