Hi TT members!
I am a sophomore in high school planning to prepare for the tennis season. My coach advised our team to start conditioning starting tomorrow, noting that 6 weeks are required to properly be ready for tennis. I have a large frame, 6' and 185 pounds. I am not very fast nor do I have much endurance and stamina, but I wish to change that. I have not exercised since a few months ago (I know, terrible), and I want to be at my peak condition at the start of the season in order to possibly make Varsity.
The problem is, what should be my training regime? I have no clue what to do in order to get fit. The only things I have are a set of 5lb weights and an 8lb medicine ball. How much should I be running per week? I honestly have no idea what to do. If you could help or advise me on creating a fitness program that would be very much appreciated.
Thank you
