Well, in tennis there is a lot of sprinting and stopping so the training has to be tailored towards that mindset. Running long distances alone won’t put you in good shape for tennis. The key is doing a lot of intervals, whether you choose to run outside or on the treadmill. This helps your body get used to all the body blows that you might get on the tennis court; that ranges from 5 sprints in a row to 4 gradual sprints.

If you happen to have a treadmill at home or at your gym and good way to start doing intervals is to follow this process. 6% incline with 6.5 speed for 30 seconds then 6% incline and 3.5 speed for 30 seconds. Do that for 20 min and you will get yourself in good shape. The key is to do it consistently.

Good Luck!

To improve your skills in any sport, you need to play as much as possible. Often with tennis, finding the right playing partner can be a challenge, limiting the time you spend on the court. Now a new service (www.juump.com) is solving that problem.

Juump has combined social networking and Google’s mapping technologies to help people find suitable tennis partners right in their own neighborhood. Users can create their own tennis profile; indicating specifics such as their skill level, when they like to play and on which courts. You can research courts in your area and invite other players for a match. And the best part…it’s all free!

How do I improve my tennis game?

There is no one specific correct answer to this. To improve your tennis game you have to work on improving the following:

  • Fitness
  • Ground Strokes
  • Serving
  • Mental Game

    • I believe those are the key factors to improve your game. Start working on one at a time. Then try to assess your improvement.

    Good Luck and remember it’s all about having fun!

    Mario Tennis is one of my favorite tennis console games; it’s a perfect tennis game to play it with family and friends. Maybe because I always been a big Super¬†Mario¬†fan I like this one.

    What is your favorite tennis console game?
