There are a myriad of ways to use TennisONE to improve your game. From the high-speed film of various tour players executing their strokes to the huge lesson library, the site offers many opportunities to build your strokes, strategy, tactics, mental game, sport fitness, and more. In this article, I will outline strategies that will enable you to use TennisONE ProStrokes Gallery to upgrade your game.

The Pro Strokes Gallery features over 3,000 video clips of top professionals executing various shots from a variety of angles. This provides you with an incredible opportunity to observe and model strokes from some of the greatest players ever, both past and present.

Because there is so much variety in stroke styles, I suggest you consult with an instructor to find models that fit your game. If you are determined to go it alone, look for a stroke that you connect with intuitively and which represents where you want to go.

Obviously, if you use a one-handed backhand, you wouldn’t want to use Andre Agassi as a backhand model, unless you want to develop a two-handed backhand. Believe it or not, I have had people tell me that they wanted to use a model whose stroke was radically different from their own, just because they ‘liked’ the player.
