In the forehand stroke, the term lag is sometimes used to refer to a relaxed wrist simply laying back / extending at the start of the forward motion - presumably referring to the racquet head following behind (lagging) the wrist and arm.
Other times lag seems to be used as meaning an extra stretch past full lay back / extension, where the forearm gets stretched, and then shortens, causing the wrist to rebound back towards neutral, in to contact or afterwards.
Is it just myself that sees these as two quite different concepts, especially if one is trying to understand and develop "lag & snap" on the forehand?
