Flexibility programmes
Are there any good online resources to help improve flexibility? The more muscle I'm adding to my legs the less flexible I'm becoming & its certainly affecting my game. I'm only in my early 30s but need to commit to improving this as I anticipate it could cause problems in later life.

Suzanna McGee, who often posts here as sixftlion, has a tennis fitness website.
One of her articles that you might find useful is: "Static Stretching Routine After the Tennis Practice" http://www.tennisfitnesslove.com/201.../#.USGrvqWsiSp Do you have an off court strengthening program? Are you stretching at the end of each exercise session? Do you start your mornings with a brief "dynamic warmup" followed by some stretching? |

I don't have time to fit in Yoga classes - I barely have time to get on court as I have a young family. I'll try to do a bit stretching when I'm at work and little bit after playing - hopefully that'll help.
