Tennis conditioning

Tennis is a fast paced, high intensity sport, which can be enjoyed as a life long activity. Meet with one of our personal trainers to increase your athleticism and be more competitive on the court!

Tennis players training with one of our certified personal trainers can expect to:

  • Increase speed, agility and quickness
  • Increase rotational power
  • Learn how to produce power for ground strokes through legs and hips
  • Train proper energy systems to decrease on-court recovery time

In addition to increasing performance, training will also reduce the risk of rotator cuff issues, tennis elbow, muscle strains and stress fractures. Tennis players often have size and strength differences from one arm

to the other of up to 30%! Our certified personal trainers will also provide the cross-training necessary to

maintain balance and symmetry in the body.

“….These are a particular problem in the adolescent age group because, in general, this group begins playing with a lower level of physical conditioning…. The prime target of prevention in young tennis players should be overuse injuries.”

“Having good agility and reaction/ anticipation could be the difference between getting to a ball and not getting there, or between being able to take control of a point as opposed to having to hit a defensive shot. Strength and power development are essential for being able to decelerate and accelerate effectively…needed when changing direction.”
