Hi !
Arm rotation is very important during a serve. It makes it possible to generate a large part of
the power of service. By rotating your arms efficiently, you can harness centrifugal force to accelerate the racket and ball, increasing the speed and power of your serve.

Here is a simple exercise that will allow you to properly oil the rotation of your arm for an impeccable serve:

● Position yourself as if you are going to do a service.
● Hold a ball with one hand at chest level.
● With the other hand, hold the racket at shoulder level.
● Strike the ball gently with the face of the racket.

NB: The racket must not rotate in your hand to hit the ball in the face, it is your arm which must ensure this rotation.
