Circuit Conditioning
Posted on Dec 16, 2007 under The Physical Game |These four drills are great for circuit conditioning. You can substitute other drills, but the purpose is to perform a variety of fun conditioning drills that keep the players in great shape for their competitive tennis seasons.
#2 runs forward to the service line, then slides to the alley and back to the other alley. Then #2 moves to the net and back to the baseline.
#5 starts facing the fence with back towards the Instructor. The Instructor throws a ball right or left. #5 must turn when it bounces and try to react and catch it before it bounces again.
#1 starts behind the line and must pick up a ball and return it to the baseline. After all six balls have been brought to the baseline, #1 must return all six balls to their original spots.
#3 and #4 lie down on their backs on the court with their feet toward the center. At the coach’s “go,” they must get up and sprint over the center mark. This race builds explosive muscles and is a fun, competitive drill all players enjoy.
