20141026

Had a nice relaxing hr long tennis session today. I woke up at the usual time - 6:15'ish and took a peek outside and the entire court was wet after a marathon rain session yesterday night. Tried to sleep again but I couldn't - So I got out of bed and thought about taking a morning walk. However I noticed that both the courts were occupied now and folks were playing. So I made a quick cup of tea and dashed out to the tennis court

I was chasing the same demons today - Wanted to plant my front foot and work on the killer first serve and follow up with good forehand backhands. Also wanted to stay aggressive and jump to net if the opportunity presented itself. As usual I managed to lose the first few service games due to double faults but then I dig deeper and was able to concentrate better and finish off both the serve games and the return games. I did lose the last serve game of the day but did manage to win 2-3 serve games in the middle. So overall a good day's tennis

One minor thing I realized that I was focusing too much on the front foot today and my toss was going back to the right hand side. Hence I was chasing wide balls and the serve was ending at the net. I think I'll keep concentrating on the toss and pronation and make the best effort job with the front foot but won't lose any sleep on it. Also I'm hitting good forehand strokes but I need to trace the ball more. Will be working on forehand and serve tomorrow as well.

Gudnite then..
