Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. a performance-limiting musculoskeletal injury within the previous six months 2. current pain or functional limitation affecting tennis participation or maximal-intent forehand execution 3. a cardiovascular, neurological, metabolic, or other medical condition that could compromise exercise safety or motor performance 4. major musculoskeletal surgery within the previous 12 months 5. participation within the previous three months in structured biomechanics-informed feedback, individualized forehand retraining, kinetic-chain power training, or racket-speed training 6. planned participation in another structured technical or physical-conditioning intervention during the study period.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Change in Dominant Kinematic Phenotype Score 3 month after intervention Measured as the change in the baseline dominant kinematic phenotype score from T0 to T2 using standardized four-camera two-dimensional high-speed video analysis. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Change in Kinetic-Chain Power Capacity 3 month after intervention Measured as the change from T0 to T2 in radar-derived 3-kg rotational medicine-ball release velocity and body-height-normalized lateral-bound distance. | — |
