Want to get the most out your Tennis drills?
As a junior, I often used the ball machine at my local tennis club. It wasn't because I didn't have anyone to practice against, it was just such a fun toy to play with.
Experimenting with a ball machine is a great laugh, but you find it worth it's weight in gold if you know the secrets of how use it. The tennis ball machine can be an excellent aid to improve your fitness levels, consistency, stroke making and stamina.
I have seen them help many players raise their standard beyond belief.

How Double Your Speed Around the Court
I have always marveled at how professionals players are able to hit clean winners from seemingly impossible balls. Players like Federer and Nadal seem like they are super-human compared to an average club player. You must have seen plenty of players who hardly move at all if they can help it.
The truth is that most players could double their speed around the court if they trained the right way.
The secret to hitting great shots of balls that you barely reach is simple - just practice at your limit of reach.
The cone drill is simple but stunningly effective. All you do is run around two cones between hitting ground strokes. By adjusting the position of the cones you can very finely tune how much you are having to stretch.
This tennis ball machine video explains it well.
