Power is speed times strength. You can't go fast without being strong. (You can be strong without being fast, but that won't help on the tennis court.) Endurance for tennis is the ability to sustain and recover from many small bouts of explosive activity over time. This type of endurance is different from that required of someone going out for a long run. Therefore, your training must reflect your tennis. Produced by Rose Bonomo, a Strength & Conditioning Professional, this video contains her cumulative knowledge from many years of training and experience with tennis players.
