Book Reviews of Complete Conditioning for Tennis (Complete Conditioning for Sports Series)

Book Review: Amazing amount of info on the subject
Summary: 5 Stars

Reading this book amazed me of how much more there is to training for tennis vs yesteryears. You can actually see how this fitness quick has taken over the ATP. When you compare Nadal, Djokovic, Roddick, and Blake to past champions such as McEnroe, Smith, Ashe, Laver, Newcomb, and Gimeno; Today's guys look like hulks vs a bunch of twigs. The overall body development including the quads and the upper body is now completely different.

This book tells you in detail how to get there. This includes improving every area of fitness including aerobic and anaerobic endurance and strength, flexibility, speed, and agility. Each chapter is dedicated to a specific area of fitness. Chapters outlining training schedule of champions are also informative. The chapter on how to prevent tennis injury is also excellent.

If you are a serious player or a coach, you will get a lot out of this book.
