Correct posture while receiving serve
Strokes
sumeet inani Asked 8 years ago
Sir ,
My understanding is
(1) keep weight on your toes instead of heels for quick sideways movement
Is that correct?
Should i keep my back bent during the game , won't it put stress?
Should i bend my knees too while receiving serve?
thanks.
