Shadow tennis
Excerpt from the interview with Christophe Bernelle, head of the mental department at the National Technical Department of the FFT.
This technique is used in many sports, such as in aviation, by airplane pilots who perform acrobatic tricks, table tennis players, boxers who practice “shadow boxing”.
Example : "Shadow boxing" , literally "shadow boxing". Training expression which means "boxing in a vacuum" by imagining an opponent. It can be done in front of a mirror. This exercise allows you to work individually on technical elements (sequences, routines, tactical diagrams, etc.) and also to self-correct using a mirror. Ref. Wikipedia

In view of these articles and the references presented above, I will offer you:
- secondly, we will associate the physical dimension with the “shadow”. For this, we will use Luc Léger's test from which we will pace our "shadow", and accelerate it as the test evolves (change of level), and this while making sure to use a technique just. As soon as the technique deteriorates (notably because of fatigue, you will stop the exercise). You will note the level reached and the corresponding time (15-30-45 seconds). If you stop before level 1 which is announced at 2 minutes, you will note in this case the time elapsed therefore betweene 0 and 2 minutesare.

IMPORTANT :
autoscopy therefore the use of video is important for learning the different strokes of tennis. So, film yourself performing these exercises, and also during Luc Léger Tennis, in order to become aware of any faults, which you can then correct in the moment, especially when you perform the “shadow tennis” exercises. since you can stop and therefore view the video right after the execution of the chosen move. In this regard, there are applications that allow you to film continuously, and the return to the action is done later (offset) depending on the time you have set.
