Forehand, backhand, and the timing of the strike, at home, in a driveway, on a terrace, in a park, whenever you have ten minutes. In a 2022 study, beginners who hit 480 forehands across six weeks measurably improved their accuracy — and it made no difference whether the reps were crammed or spread out \u003cem\u003e(Fuentes-García et al., International Journal of Sports Science \u0026amp; Coaching)\u003c\/em\u003e.
