Recover Phase

• General Instructions
• After you've followed through completely, it is important to recover back to the baseline in preparation for another shot. You bring the racket back to where you started with it, and shuffle back to the middle of the baseline with knees slightly bent and still up on your toes. Your racket is now out in front of you and again you're in "ready stance".

• Trapezius and rhomboids adduct the scapula slightly back into position. Now that you are in recovery, as you're leaned forward with the racket out in front of you, the pectoralis minor will abduct the scapula forward bringing arms together while and the serratus anterior protracts the scapula that produces the forward movement to stabalize the shoulder when you reach forward.
• Horizontally abbduct the shoulder joint by eccentrically contracting your middle and posterior deltoid, infraspinatus and teres minor muscles.
• Return to recovery position by isometrically contracting your triceps and biceps brachii, brachialis and brachioradialis
• Abbduct your right hip joint away from the center by concentrically contracting your gluteus medius, gluteus maximus, and tensor fascia latae. Left hip joint is stablized.
• Slightly flex your knee joint by isometrically contracting your semitendinosus, semimembranosus, biceps femoris, and gastrocnemius.
