Motion Analysis Part I

Here I was my first attempt to try and diagram the movement of my feet, left wrist, racquet and tennis ball. What I found interesting was how in the first third of the motion the movement of my upper body all started in sequence, (left wrist, racquet head, and ball). The second third is where we start to get a see all these variables find their own path. The left wrist has folded into the body, the racquet head is at full extension, and contact with the ball has be made. During the last third of the motion, the stroke is completed by the whole sequence coming back together.
