When I'm bored at home, and there is no court available, I usually go through my service motion.
Unfortunally my ceiling is rather low so I can't -jump- up as usually pushing with my legs.
So here is my problem, whenever I practise the ball toss, wriste rotation, back bending and racquet scratching the back and then the 'hitting' of the fictious ball. After the 'hitting' I tend to have to walk 2-3 steps forward so I don't lose balance.
When I'm able to jump, I just tend to land maybe a foot at most inside the court, which is about 1/4 or even less of the forward movement I do if I don't jump to maintain balance.
I was wondering if this is normal, or without the jump, I'm putting too much forward momentum in my serve.
Thanks
Bruno
