The Tennis Programs are designed for the person who loves tennis! Whether the goal is simply to get in better shape and reduce injury risk, or to compete at a high level on the court, these programs will get results. All Tennis Programs take into account the specific movements and physical demands required in the game of tennis.
In the constant quest to provide quality workouts there are always variations within each one of the major program goals. These variations are dependent upon how much equipment is available, and how aggressively training will be.
The "Gym Oriented Tennis Program" requires the use of a fully equipped gym but will help to achieve fitness goals more quickly and in many instances will give the the best performance increases in the game!
The "Dumbbell Oriented Tennis Program" can be done just about anywhere! It is an excellent program for those who want quality physical development and wish to train in the privacy of the home. Training with dumbbells requires more balance and control to perform the required exercises. It also enhances functional strength development for injury prevention.
The "Competitive Tennis Program" was designed with the serious athlete in mind! This workout includes full body Olympic training along with more advanced plyometric exercises for explosive power. This program requires the use of a fully equipped facility.

This week we are getting down to the 'Ole Skool' exercises as summer fast approaches we know your iron pumping will greatly increase!
Train properly and be sure to use good form. You will not only look better, you will also be less likely to become a gym casualty from going hard the wrong way.
Grasp the EZ Bar on either the inside bend or the outside bend of the bar. This will depend on your body and what feels best. Keep your upper arms and shoulders stationary as you bring the weight down to a position just slightly behind your head. Keep your elbows inside. Don’t let them flare to the outside during the lift. Exhale as you extend the weight back up to the starting position. This exercise is the key for developing the inner or long head of your triceps muscle and by using the EZ Bar you can reduce any negative pressure on your wrists and elbows.
