Perfect your preparation for your next match! Get your muscles ready quickly--and correctly--for tennis training and competition using a dynamic warm-up. Drawing from the latest research, training expert Mark Verstegen demonstrates how to prepare the body for forward and backward movements, side-to-side movements, and variable all-court movements in three dynamic warm-up routines you can use right out of the box. By regularly incorporating a dynamic warm-up into your tennis training, you will improve your movement efficiency and overall play. The three routines in this DVD serve as a great starting point for developing a challenging conditioning program.
Raise your on-court performance with the Dynamic Tennis Warm-Ups DVD, tested by the best players in the game at USTA training centers and Athletes' Performance training facilities.
