She played with it torn for like 3 months because it was high school season. Served underhand the whole time. Didn't play for like 6 months afterwards | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
I dislocated my shoulder while skiing in March. The damn thing has popped out twice since then playing tennis. One time on a serve and one time on a weird angle forehand. So there’s one anecdotal example! | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
Only times I’ve hurt my shoulder have been early on. Trying to swing hard rather than having a lose grip and letting my body hit the ball during serves. If you’re hurting yourself during serves you are either going too hard too early. Or just have poor serving mechanics. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
I don't practice more than 40 or 50 serves probably when I go out and practice with a bucket of balls, because I don't want to strain my shoulder (never had issues but I'm in my late 40s so always injury-paranoid).
You could definitely injure your shoulder practicing serves if you overdo it. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
Not uncommon after dislocation, gets easier to do. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
One common issue I see when folks practice serving is they don’t ease into it. Instead from the first serve they go all out trying to hit as hard as possible. Also one good habit when serving is start easy from the service line and then gradually move back every 10-15 serves then by the time you’re at the baseline you’... | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
The fact that this isn't a common injury in the men's pro game probably points to an issue with technique or a genetic thing that predisposes you to shoulder weakness. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
One of my coaches had a promising juniors career. He showed off one time serving to impress some girl an tore his rotator cuff and ended his juniors career. So yes it's possible. Warmup is important. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
Alot of the 3.0s I see with their baskets go all out from the first ball. Instead of warming up. Also most of them have horrid serve mechanics and obviously no one has told them how the serve works. The serve is like every other groundstroke. You don't force it just how you're supposed to let go on fh and bh the serve ... | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
dang, did it take years even to get back to semi normal? | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
I never had shoulder problems from serving. I can practice serves on the court for however long until fatigued. I guess it maybe helped that I had done regular gym machine exercises involving my shoulders and plenty of pull-ups for a while before I got back into tennis seriously. When I practice my serve I also try to ... | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
Can you share your stretching routine? | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
yes, more of a chronic injury than acute. the doctor made me swim 1 mile a day. no surgery or drugs and i was fine after about 8 months. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-09-07 |
A friend of mine did. He's been playing tennis since 5 tho and can hit upwards of 120mph+
So if you are vaporizing balls it can happen. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-09-07 |
so he needed surgery and took time off, and it just wasn't the same anymore. just don't go at 100% on your serve without some warmup first. that's how you get injuries. you need to gradually get into it. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-09-07 |
I tear my rotator cuff every time I go practice serving. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-09-07 |
The most important thing to hit is lower body so I stretch hips, hammy, quads, calfs, groin. I also make sure to stretch my shoulders.
Just youtube a stretching routine after workouts there's a crap ton | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-10-07 |
I took ~ 6 months off after rotator cuff injury and just started serving back last week. The main cause for my injury was hitting too many serves consecutively (unlike normal match play) and some bad mechanics (stopping my motion instead of rotational follow through due to too high arm tension).
So far I’ve been fine ... | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-12-07 |
I live in NYC and recently got into tennis. I can’t really play yet, but I really love watching tennis. There’s a challenger coming up in Bronxville (I know, long distance to travel just to watch tennis lol), and I don’t see any information about attending outside participating.

I just googled the tournament I think you're referencing, and it's a level 7 USTA Tournament for 3.0 and 3.5 level players. This is the lowest level of competition, so probably not worth traveling for, and you would definitely get funny looks going to watch as a spectator.

Most facilities in NYC area allow spectators. However most of them does not have proper viewing area for most courts. If you see a tournament at NTC in flushing that area have good viewing for all courts. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |

Well if they are interested in seeing beginning or intermediate level play this could be a good chance for them to see what level they’ll soon be playing at. There’s always spectators at this tournaments. No one’s gonna think you’re weird for attending. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
I guess I was picturing a first round matchup of a couple of dudes playing on an otherwise empty court and a completely random spectator shows up to watch. But you're right, the semis and finals of these tournaments usually have some spectators and it would be normal for him be part of the crowd. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |

I play a lot of USTA league and captain a few teams. Just be upfront with the team at the start and setup your game plan for the season.

What’s a serving machine | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
Sorry I just meant one that serves balls (e.g. the lobster branded ones). I didn’t know if there was a specific name for it | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
Ah, so a ball machine. It will help improve but playing against actual people would probably benefit you a lot more, there’s a guy at my club who regularly brings his ball machine down and practices by himself so while it is a pretty big investment if you use it a lot then I would say it’s worth it. Personally I think ... | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
Yeah that’s totally fair. I don’t have any clubs by me, so my practice time has consisted of just hitting/volleying against a wall for an hour and then a half hour of practicing serves… and having a ball machine sounds way more fun than that haha | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
How far away is your nearest club? | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |

I have one and I love its it’s I have an insane work schedule so it’s hard to line up time to play with people.
I set it up to give me consistent balls so I can work on my FH and BH. Then mine will sweep so I can mix it up and improve my foot speed.
It’s been so fun and helped my game big time. I’ve made up drills ... | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
That’s not as bad as I thought it would be, if I were you I would join the club. It will make it a lot easier to find people to hit with and you’ll make new friends as well | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
Yeah maybe I’ll give it a shot! I’m sure having people to play would end up being really motivating, so it could end up being really worthwhile. Thanks! | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-08-07 |
For sure! So if you do feel like it’s a worthwhile investment, would you say it’s best to just dig in and get a pretty nice model with a lot of features, or just start with a basic one to see if I like it?

Ball machines are great but expensive. Try hitting against a wall, it does wonders to your game. You can practice backhand, forehand, volley drills for hours and it's great for your overall conditioning. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-09-07 |
I think my Hydrogen Sports Proton is the best tennis investment I’ve made. While I use it extensively, you need to be sure you’re focused on specific goals when training.

What jumps out at me is youre not turning or coiling very much, u could bring your elbow and chest turned back a bit more, and also could bend knees more to get lower and better jump at the ball, then with more rotational force your racket will more naturally end across your body rather than being seemingly stopped hal... | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-09-07 |
It's a good start of the right motion. Now some things to consider are you really want to keep your serve arm up and not just up for the sake of being up, but up and stretched so you feel it in your chest. Watch the best players and you'll see them really reach upwards on the toss and not just have the arm up briefly. ... | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-09-07 |

Poly is meant to be restrung frequently. If you don't want to restring frequently, you should use a syn gut or multi. The fact that you are asking this question tells me enough about your playing level that you absolutely should be using syn gut or multi. Then you can play with it until it breaks. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-09-07 |

Head hawk touch has good spin potential but contrary to the touch in its name is rather on the stiff side. If you don't swing hard and fast enough you might not unlock its spin potential. | r/10s | comment | r/10s | 2024-09-07 |
