For the most part I've been serving well, but I got really nervous when we were way ahead for some reason and double faulted twice in the game and my serve felt terrible. I had asked a friend to watch and he said my motion was unrecognizable from my previous service games in the match and when he's played with me before.
He said it looked like I was serving with someone yelling at me to hurry up and I just tossed the ball and went right after it with my arms. There was no rocking or loading the legs or anything like that.
When I was serving it felt like my timing and serve was off, but I didn't know why. I kept thinking that I wasn't accelerating or was dropping my head or something, but now I know I'm rushing the motion and not loading my legs properly. He said even the serves I made in that game looked horrible.
Now that I know that my question is what should I do about it?
Maybe say something to myself like "toss and hit" or count out "1, 2, 3" or something to get my normal tempo back?
