Tennis: Choosing A Racket

Tennis gear is most important for any of the tennis player; it does not matter whether he is

beginner or old player. Among all tennis merchandise, proper selection tennis racket is

extremely important. Quality of whole tennis game that you are going to play depends solely on

tennis racket, so it’s obvious to choose best tennis racket.

There is wide range of tennis rackets available in market, so it’s tough to choose the best. But,

here are some of facts that will help you choose the best racket:

•

Your skills

•

Your playing style

•

Material and weight of the racket

Here is the detailed description of how above-mentioned point will help you in choosing good

tennis racket:

•

Skill Level:

Skill level also plays an important role in selection of the tennis racket, as racket choices

changes from beginner to advanced players.

-Beginners:

For beginners, it’s advisable to select cheap rackets with larger head. Reason behind this is,

initially while learning the game; it would be easy to hit the ball with larger head. Also there is no need of spending more money in purchasing costly racket, until you have learned all the basics

and determined to actively participate in game.

-Intermediate and Advanced:

Intermediate and advance players will choose racket opposite to that of beginners i.e. they will

choose racket having smaller head size. Reason is that, the racket with small head will have

more strength in shots. Also, the player will have good controls in hits with small head rackets.

•

Playing style:

Style of playing also matters in the selection of tennis rackets. If you like to use topspin in game,

you should choose tennis racket with heavy head. Also tennis rackets are being specially

designed for tennis players, who play serve and volley. Same is the case with players, who

mainly plays ground strokes. Thus, in whatever style you are playing the game, selection of

tennis racket accordingly is advisable.

•

Racket weight:

Racket weight helps in avoiding injuries. Tennis rackets should weigh a bit higher and head

portion should be light in weight. Because lighter rackets causes elbow and shoulder problems.

Ground stroke will also be much better with heavier rackets.

•

Material of the racket:

Material from which racket is made up of also matters. Generally, tennis rackets are made up of

graphite, aluminum, Boron and Kevlar. Graphite rackets performs the best for beginner as well

as intermediate as it has excellent hitting power. Aluminum rackets are cheaper but provide

good feel. Boron and Kevlar rackets should not be used by beginning player as it causes

shoulder problems.

Thus, these are things that you should keep in mind before selection of the best tennis racket.

Tennis: A Way To Get Fit

For a long time, tennis has been considered as one of the best games for keeping your body fit.

Most of the tennis players always go for tennis, without any excuse of age or saying this game

as fun. Thus, this gives clear idea that how genuine tennis is for body fitness. Majority of tennis

players consider that this is an exercise with good equipments and also exhaustive.

Are you fit for tennis fitness exercise?

It’s easy to answer this question; you would surely get the answer of this question in next line. If

you are not too young to play tennis, you are not fit for tennis fitness exercise program. Age is

not the matter for this fitness program as I frequently work with tennis players, who are having

an age 60 years or more than that. Tennis Fitness exercise is not about hitting the ball hard,

ground stroke at the speed of 150 mph.

Fun of the game:

This game includes a lot of fun. Some questions that might be raised in your mind are:

•

Is there, fun anywhere else except playing good tennis and that too without any extra

efforts?

The following example will answer your above question. There are two tennis players with us.

One is Ferrari with top speed of 200 mph and other one is Ford Escort with top speed of 90

mph. These two motors are totally different, but both of them are used for same purpose.

Both of them can run on the road (the tennis court) and travel from point A to the point B (play a

tennis match).With equal attempt (at half throttle), Ferrari will speed up to 100 mph while Ford

Escort will speed up to 45 mph

•

But what are the results if some of parts of Ford Escort’s engine are replaced by a Ferrari?

Probably the maximum speed of Ford Escort may rise by 20 mph. So by small tinkering in the

shop (tennis fitness program), 10 mph has been added to same half throttle effort. Thus, not

Ford Escort’s half throttle performance when you drive is 55 mph, which was 45 mph earlier.
