In tennis your biggest challenge isn't the opponent that is
standing on the other side of the net. It's the pounding of your
heart in your chest, the aching of your lungs, the weakness in your
legs and the little voice inside you that says, "I can't." But you
don't listen to the nonsense, you work harder. As that voice starts
to fade away, you hear another faint whisper of a voice starting to
say, "I can." That's when you realize the person you thought you
were is no match for the person you really are. That's dominating
tennis. Learning to play tennis at a high level is easier than you
think. You have to develop strokes, strength and the correct
mindset to become a winner. In this book, you do it all. We've
developed a 60-day program that takes you day-by-day to bring your
game to top performance. If you're willing to put in the work for
about an hour a day, we'll give you the tools to make you a much
better overall player in just 60 days. It's that simple. Don't
listen to coaches that say "You aren't good enough" or "You need to
develop your serve," they're missing the boat, that's loser talk.
You need a plan that takes you from your current ability level and
makes you dramatically better. It's not about going to the courts
and hitting hundreds of serves every day or getting lessons five
times a week, it's about a system that makes you a better athlete
and therefore a better tennis player. We all get nervous when we
know we have tryouts or a big tournament coming up. We do this
because we fear the unknown or feel we aren't prepared. But armed
with a plan beforehand you can limit those nerves and use them as
weapons. We'll be the ones to show you how. The Workouts: Working
with the top tennis pros we've developed a 60-day program that
makes you a champion. The program is divided into 2 main phases:
Phase One: days 1-30 Core, Balance and Stroke Development In this
phase we tighten up your stokes while giving you exercises that
develop correct technique and get you prepared for aggressive
winning tennis. Core and balance work is very important to get your
body ready for the challenges ahead. Much of tennis is about
balance. If your body is balanced you're ready to face your biggest
weaknesses. The core works hand-in-hand with your balance, if you
have a strong core, you can keep your body in better balance. Phase
Two: days 31-60 Power and Aggressive Performance With Phase One
under your belt you're ready to start getting more precise and
adding power to your shots and strength to your body. This is where
most tennis instructors fall short. We take you to the next level
day-by-day making you a better tennis player and athlete. At this
point you start to notice more control over your shots. In Phase
Two we take the hard work from Phase One and push you further. As
you work at a rapid pace on your shots, turning your body into a
sculpted machine that moves along the court with grace and
elegance, your friends will be shocked with the improvement. We
won't be. This is the book to get you there.

In 1872, the world's first tennis club was founded in Leamington
Spa. The world's oldest tennis tournament, the Wimbledon
Championships, was first played in London in 1877. These first
Championships culminated in a debate on how to standardise the
rules of the sport as it evolved. John Moyer Heathcote was one of
those who devised the original rules of lawn tennis, and he is also
credited with inventing the cloth covering for the tennis ball. An
amateur tennis champion until 1882, he wrote one of the very first
manuals of the sport. The Classic Guide to Tennis instructs the
budding tennis player in how to become a master of the game.

Here are 150 Tips to help your table tennis game, by Larry Hodges -
a member of the U.S. Table Tennis Hall of Fame and a National
Coach. They compile in logical progression three years' worth of
Tips of the Week from TableTennisCoaching.com. They cover all
aspects of the game: Serve, Receive, the Strokes, Grip and Stance,
Footwork, Tactics, How to Improve, Sports Psychology, Equipment,
and Tournaments.
Tennis is a fun, fast-paced sport that is a great way to stay in
shape, as well as to spend time with friends and family. It is
also, however, a relatively complicated game with it's own set of
rules and regulations, terms to be defined, equipment needed and so
on. Simply grabbing a tennis racquet and hitting the clay court are
not even close to enough to prepare you for playing tennis. Tennis
Beginners Guide, provides an accessible introduction to the basics
of the game of tennis. The guide helps to define all the terms
related to equipment, the court, hits, rules of the game, and more.
It then goes on to detail the mindset of the successful tennis
player, discussing the psychology of tennis and how to use it to
your advantage. The guide begins by laying out the basic terms that
tennis players will need to familiarize themselves with if they are
to get the most out of their game. Players will need to understand
the following terms: Baseline Service line Alleys The basic tennis
strokes are laid out and explained: Ground strokes Volley Service
Drive Stop Volley Chop Half volley/trap shot Smash Lob The guide
then discusses different ball spins to begin to familiarize you
with the different types of shots you will need to learn. The type
of spin you put on the ball will determine not only its velocity,
but the trajectory of the ball as well. This is where you can best
control your shot. The tennis court itself must be to the standards
defined for professional tennis courts. The guide discusses what
makes an tennis court appropriately sized and laid out for
traditional tennis play. With all the "nuts and bolts" defined, the
Tennis Beginners Guide begins to get into the "nitty gritty" of
theory of how to play tennis. A basic outline for beginners shots
is provided. This section also provides a number of key hints and
tips that all beginning tennis players need to remember. Keeping
your eye on the ball, not the racquet, for example, is one of the
biggest and hardest parts of tennis to learn. The guide then goes
on to discuss how to control your strokes and manage the game. This
is where different ways of actually gripping the racquet are
discussed. It also goes over beginners strokes, how they are used
and when best used. Court position is also discussed. Next, the
guide touches on the psychology of tennis. It is a mind game as
much as a physical one. Momentum is a huge psychological element. A
few good serves or volleys from your opponent can make you begin to
make mistakes as you get flustered trying to counter their moves.
The same goes for your opponent. The guide discusses how to stay
calm and to use this psychology to your advantage against your
opponent. The psychology is different depending on the type of game
played. The guide discusses the psychology of match play, as well
as doubles matches. It also discusses the psychology of the
physical nature of the game. Each type of game must be approached
differently and the guide provides a detailed explanation of the
ins and outs of each type of match play. While tennis is great fun
and a great way to keep active, you are likely to be disappointed
at your performance if you grab a racquet and hit the court. Tennis
is a complex sport that requires a in depth understanding of the
rules and it takes time to perfect each element of the game. And
while tennis is most definitely a physical sport, it is also a
mental one as well. Tennis Beginners Guide provides all the
information you need to get started playing tennis properly, armed
with all the information you need to start improving your game.
