 What is Cardio Tennis?

 

Cardio Tennis is a high energy fitness activity that combines the best features of the sport of tennis with cardiovascular exercise, delivering the ultimate, full body, calorie burning aerobic workout. It is a very social and fun class for players of all ability levels taught by a tennis teaching professional. If you've never played tennis before it is a great way to be introduced to the sport and if you are an experienced high level tennis player it is the best way to train for tennis. Most classes have mixed ability and some facilities offer classes which are more specific to ability/fitness level. However, regardless of ability or fitness level the tennis professional is trained to provide the ultimate workout for each person.

 

The Cardio Tennis & Heart Rate Monitors...

Cardio Tennis is first and foremost a fitness program. It is more about getting people moving and active and less on hitting great forehands and backhands

In Cardio Tennis the goal is to train in the zone for 30- 50 minutes in a 60 minute workout. The only way to determine this is by using a Heart Rate Monitor. Heart rate monitors elevate the fitness profile of the class. They are the most accurate way to measure a participant’s heart rate.

The typical Cardio Tennis program is 60 minutes and includes:

· 5-10 minute warm-up segments

· 30-50 minute Cardio segment

· 5-10 minute cool down segment

Classes will commence next week at Croydon. The cost is $15 a class and a come and try a free trial class next week only will be offered. A max of 6 players per class, so you must book your spot. Class times will be as followed.
