Every piece of hardware that makes up a computer must work together in synchronicity for the computer to operate, and if you want to avoid making frequent runs to the Apple store, they must be maintained too. Likewise, every muscle, bone, tendon, and ligament in your body works together synchronistically with every shot you make and every serve you take on the tennis court. When your body is well maintained and you are in complete control, you stand to win more often than not. If you want to be successful as a professional tennis player, you must be healthy and fit. Your body must be nurtured and maintained. You must train properly, avoid injury, and understand the mechanics of every shot you make. This book is the only comprehensive source of all the physical skills required to compete as a professional tennis player. If you, your child, or your students are ready to stop taking risks when it comes to health and well-being and instead have the best shot at making it pro, then this book is for you.
