I'm looking for a complete workout/flexibility program for serious tennis players. I know I can research stuff for hours on end and figure it all out, but surely there's a webpage somewhere that has sample programs that I just can't seem to find?
I'm 37 years old, 5'11, 180lbs. I'm "athletic", in decent shape, cardio is OK, and no real injuries aside from relatively minor lower back pain that acts up every now and then if I go too hard.
I need to drop about 10 lbs of fat, get a little stronger, and most importantly I just need to prevent injuries and stay healthy to play competitive tennis. I'm interested in functional strength and flexibility.
I assume I should be doing basic compound and bodyweight exercises like pullups, pushups, squats, military presses, and A LOT of core work. Probably do some good stretching after every workout, and mix in some plyo or agility drills? Thing is I'm looking for specific stretches, drills, workouts, etc.
If there are any trainers etc. on the board I would even be happy to pay you to help me develop a customized workout plan. Shoot me a PM if you're out there.
I just want to start working out and don't really have 100s of hours to read books and different websites to figure it all out on my own. Thanks!
