Look at your trophy! Usually it is a figure of a server. Look at the knees. They look like they are bending toward the net. Look at the back of the figure. It looks like it is "coiling" away from the receiver. Look at the toes of the figure. The heels are off the ground and the toes are carrying the weight. By doing these things you will prevent lower back pain, you will get more vertical on your serve (because you are forcing yourself to use your legs), and you will start "coiling" your body like a pro.
