Tennis Gym Workout?

Question

Hello -

does anyone know of any workouts I could do in the gym to help me for tennis? Like weight lifting?running?anything?

Answer 1

ok so i do...

tennis 4 times a week for 2 hours each time

run long distance-5k-3 days a week

25 push ups a day

100 situps a day

i don't lift weights i am 14 grl, but u could do that like 3 times a week

footwork drills-sprints, reaction time, medicine ball, suicides

yup! i do that.

i am top 50 in the nation for G14s tennis :) it's intense

Answer 2

Play a looootttttt of tennis

Core work is the most important

Legs next

Upper body should be with light weights or just resistance

I don't believe in long distance running for tennis but some people disagree. Maybe run a sprint (100-200m max), rest, then repeat a few times. I sometimes sprint hills also.

good luck
