Introduction

For the past few years I have become consumed in tennis. I love watching it and recently, I've started playing. I've swam competitively my entire life and after a few months of tennis, I'm ready to forget about swimming and focus completely on tennis. It's amazing how addicting tennis can be. The pros definitely make it look easy, but just like every other sport, you just have to work at it to get better. Tennis involves a lot of muscle memory so repetition is the key. The more I get into tennis the more I find out how technical it is. Good form is vital to a beginner. Once you have the basic form down you can then work to improve strength, speed, and precision. After that, you can work on being the best!

  1. Yeah I know how tennis can be addicting. My home used to be right next to the tennis court, so I played everyday with my friends. Though we weren't good, we often played full set. But because I didn't have my form trained, sadly it is hard to play tennis again after not playing for an year. I strongly agree that repetition makes the form more stable so we can focus on our techniques, strength, and speed. Anyway, I think tennis is a very fun and addicting sport.
