See your tennis training in a brand new light. Tennis Anatomy, Second
Edition, will show you how to dominate the competition by increasing
strength, speed, and agility for more powerful serves and more accurate
shots.
Emphasizing a movement-based approach to conditioning, Tennis Anatomy
offers over 75 exercises designed to mimic the unique physical demands
of the game and train the body as an integrated unit to maximize
explosive power.
Each exercise offers step-by-step descriptions and full-color anatomical
illustrations highlighting the muscles in action. Exercises for the
lower body, core, shoulders, back, chest, arms, and wrists--along with
information on proper acceleration and deceleration mechanics,
rotational strengthening, and lateral movement skills--will help you
cover the court with strength and efficiency. Illustrations of the
active muscles for forehands, backhands, volleys, and serves show you
how each exercise is fundamentally linked to tennis performance.
You'll also find exercises aimed to protect the body from common tennis
injuries and tips for proper recovery so you are always ready to ace the
competition.
Authors E. Paul Roetert and Mark Kovacs have worked at the highest
levels of the United States Tennis Association (USTA) and are experts in
