Below are 6 training modalities that I believe should never leave a tennis player’s off-court training program.
Whether a player is has a period without tournaments - or they’re in-between events - I believe the inclusion of these training types (in some form), is imperative to remain healthy and to perform at peak levels.
Let’s explore each in a little detail:
1 - Plyometric Training - If you only had to choose one training type to add to your off-court program, it would be plyometrics.
There are countless ways that tennis players can get into shape. From running workouts to weight training, on-court drills and more.
All have their pros and cons. And all can be utilized at different times of the year + at different stages of a player’s development.
Recently, plyometric and jump training has resurfaced as a popular training modality amongst tennis players. You’ll see many performing hurdles, line hops and other types of jumping variations.
