:zzz: :o :har:

Is it a Women's tennis match

or

a porno movie?

All they need to do in the end is scream YES ! YES ! YES!:o



I used to play tennis many moons ago, and I believe this grunting/moaning/screaming all started with Monica Seles.

this HAS to be a coached technique. Gawd is it freekin obnxious (which is why they do it I bet!):timeout: this has ruined tennis for me.

[UnderseaLcpl]

That was the worst porno I ever listened to.

[Skybird]

We had a thread on that a year ago or so. Back then they had measured the volume of sharapova'S noise, and if I remember it correctly they found it's peak to be reaching to levels comparing to a jet engine, and rated it as a health threat. :-?

If your idea of porn is passing a kidney stone or childbirth, then I can see the comparison. :haha::haha:

What the 2 of them are doing is the old martial art technique of a martial yell (Kiyai). Its good for 2 reasons, one it can break the focus of an enemy, and most importantly it helps focus power, speed and precision in a strike. Virtually all martial arts use some form of kiyai. Those 2 are just applying the concept to tennis.

Men's tennis isn't into this shreiking is it? I haven't followed tennis since 94.:yawn: It seems like all of the womens players shreik now:shifty: .

[Jimbuna]

It is also used to mask the stroke of the player....apparently slices and spins etc are decipherable to a tennis pro very early in their execution by the sound the racket makes when hitting the ball.

I used to KINDA watch tennis - but the shrieking and grunting has made it intolerable to me.

I always knew you had good taste. :salute:

btw sorry for late post, just got back from local watering hole. :()1: :salute:

[Hitman]

Back to the topic's orginal idea (No, not the porn part), screaming when striking has been since long in many oriental martial arts used. Apparently the strength liberated with each hit is higher, and the hit is much harder.

I can't say if that is correct or not, as I myself have been trained in amateur boxing and we never did scream at all when striking -though I assure you it did hurt a lot when you landed a good blow- :88)

May be their couch thought the technique could be well translated to tennis, in order to have harder strikes. Probably Skybird can tell something more about this, as he is more versated in oriental martial arts :hmmm:

[Platapus]

In boxing don't you exhale strongly at the moment of your hit landing?

[Hitman]

Since you hit with your fist, arm, and even whole wrist, more or less yes, you exhale through your nose (Never through your open mouth!!). I take it you are also contracting heavily your diafragm muscle (The one responsable for breathing) to increase the rotation of your body in order to lengthen the reach of your arm, but ultimately you NEVER open your mouth, much less scream, because that could get you into deep trouble if you receive a hit at the same moment. Ali's jaw got broken more or less due to having his mouth half-open when he landed a heavy punch by Joe Frazier.

If I try to re-create the sequence of punching and try it both silently and screaming, I think that in the second one I loose strength in the punch because part of the strength comes from the fact of having your lungs full of air and your diafragm contracted to hold the air there. When letting all that air loose the muscles get relaxed and I loose strength in teh final part of the strike.

Again, take that with a grain of salt because boxing is a fighting sport that is quite different to other fight techniques, but ultimately I have NEVER seen any professional boxer sream while punching, and if that was better, I guess they would have found it out and practiced it. :hmmm:

[Platapus]

Thanks for the explanation.
