Any good warm-up routines to use before I play tennis?

Question

Is there anyone out there that knows a great tennis routine to get my body worked up? I'm really getting into tennis, and would like to find out a good routine. Thanks

Answer 1

Before you do any strenuous activity it's a good idea to do stretches to warm up your body so you don't injure yourself. Here's a site with a LOT of stretching exercisies on it:

http://www.ovphysio.com/stretchg/tennis/... pick and choose lol I play tennis and I probably don't do enough stretches though some of them would look funny on a court i think. I'd probably do 2, 8,9 and 12 if i was warming up at the court. If you feel like stretching before you leave home though then there's no reason you can't do more.

If you're looking for tennis drills to do before you play, I found this website which has some good ideas on it:

before my tuornaments i hit a little to get y muscles warm. but if ur just hitting for fun i would just do some basic streches, and a little short jog.
