Focus on using a pivot step (one big step) to get your body and racket ready quickly, rather than taking many small steps.
This lesson is very helpful for understanding efficient footwork. The coach explains the importance of using a pivot step instead of taking many small steps to prepare for shots, especially those that arrive quickly at your feet. It contrasts this with common mistakes made by club players, showing how proper pivoting allows you to get your body and racket ready much faster. Focusing on this technique can significantly improve your reaction time and positioning.
