5Comprehensive, too much for some readers?  May 27, 2008
This is an excellent book for tennis conditioning. Most readers would have to pick and choose which things to employ as only the most dedicated athlete would find the time for everything. Excellent as a comprehensive survey.

5Conditionning for tennis  May 10, 2008
What a book! According to me, it is the best book to help an independant player to progress by himself. The explanations are very clear, simple. And the CD is fabulous: fabulous to watch the exercices, fabulous to avoid wrong positions, wrong movements,...Thank you very much for this conditionning Bible.

5Complete Conditioning for Tennis  Apr 28, 2008
Like the title states, this is a very complete and thorough conditioning book designed for the needs of the tennis player. With chapters on condition assesment, flexibility, strength, agility and others, a complete routine can be established that players of all skill levels will enjoy. I strongly recommened this book for players, or parents of, looking to compete at the highest levels. Being a 1-2 times a week player, some parts don't apply to me but will the most serious. The majority of this book can be used by players of every skill and dedication level.

5Completely Great!  Feb 16, 2008
All books on conditioning will get you into shape, but THIS book was the best for tennis I have ever come across. As a 4.0 level player, I was looking for a book that gave me step-by-step instructions to beef up my conditioning - while focusing on the tennis side in a big way. I leafed through this one in the bookstore, and liked what I saw. Upon reading it cover-to-cover, it was EXACTLY what I wanted, and got me excited to play again! I've never seen the in-depth, attention to detail, and one-step-at-a-time coverage this book has.

4Good for down time  Jan 04, 2007
Son broke a bone in his foot and was going to be off the court for about 8 weeks. We decided to utilize the time improving strength, reflex reaction time, etc. We took this book to a personal trainer who used many of the ideas during the hiatus. Results - he went back to the court with a stronger serve, stronger strokes and better endurance than he went out with. So good in fact, that he continues to work with his personal trainer in addition to his on court time.
