To compete at their fullest levels, athletes are required to push their stamina and strength to the limit time and time again. These high-performance principles incorporate different aspects of fitness (including flexibility, cardiovascular, core and balance exercises), motor learning, and mental conditioning. Testing techniques not only help athletes perform specific goals faster and more effectively, but also helps to ensure that muscles have the training that they need to prevent accident and injury.
High-performance training principles apply for tennis uses all components of a fitness "foundation" to build form, techniques, and muscles specificity through response. This enables athletes to be flexible, strong, and agile. Coaches and trainers develop situations that push their charges to the limits, making them focus on executing highly precise moves with quickness and speed. Athletes are taught how to respond in specific situations—adaptability and variability—building what coaches call "training zones" to mimic demand for tennis. |
