    Best workout to avoid overtraining

    I am looking to get as fit as I can for tennis. I am already pretty fit but Im looking to improve cardio while maintaining strength. I lift 4 times a week and play a lot of tennis, but I find that when I try to incorporate cardio into my routine in addition to playing a lot, i get very burned...

    Recommend a better hybrid

    I have been using an alu power rough and nrg2 (16g) hybrid at 55/57 and absolutely love how it plays- I can take huge cuts at the ball and not lose control, the spin is good, and it still has a good amount of pop when I want to put a ball away. The problem is that after only about 2 weeks of...

    Ross- I hate lead too and am also a fan of racquets with solid stock weights. Good luck testing it out against a solid player, I think you will be very satisfied!

    Exo3 Rebel 95 (heavy one not team version)?

    I know what you mean! I had struggled for quite some time demoing and playing with frames that just didn't work out but after a couple of hits with the rebel I knew it was ideal for my game. Just curious Ross how do you play? I hit fairly flat and have a 2 handed backhand but my biggest weapons...

    Exo3 Rebel 95 (heavy one not team version)?

    I have been playing with the Rebel since shortly after it came out and it is the perfect racquet for my game. It's strange that serves are a minor complaint for some, I have found that flat serves are excellent and slice and kick serves have plenty of action as well. The maneuverability is not a...

    2 handed back hand tips?

    Get low- knee bend is crucial, also make sure you relax your wrist to drop the racquet head and then bring it up through the zone to create topspin.

    Recommand string for good spin for EXO3 Rebel 95

    The nrg2 is more powerful than the big banger. I have mine strung at 55/57 but I also have an 18x20 string pattern so the combination of the tension and the string pattern decrease the power a bit.

    The search for the perfect hybird- ALU Rough/ ???

    Is this a good deal?

    The 18/20 will feel stiffer and have more control but less spin and pop
