1. Hugging the Baseline and Hitting off Back Foot

If you're having difficulties moving into the ball, there might be a simple problem: you're hugging the baseline. During a rally, where do most balls land? Between the service line and the baseline. If the ball lands closer to the baseline - and you're hugging the line and you're not Agassi or Seles who can take almost every ball on the rise - you're in trouble. You won't always have time to move back, and you'll end up hitting off your back foot. When this happens, your body weight is moving back while the ball is moving forward towards your opponent.
