2. The Unit Turn - the unit turn will help you get into the right position before you even start moving your feet.

3. The Backswing - there is not much of a backswing in the one-handed backhand, but coiling the body is key.

4. The Uncoiling - this is where many players lose out on power so make sure you get this one right.

5. The Contact - we'll look at optimal contact and the role of the wrist.
