FITNESS FRIDAY - June 5th, 2026

More Examples of Warming Up Properly for Tennis

Top tennis players use a dynamic warm-up before playing tennis and training. Unlike static stretching where you hold a stretch, dynamic warm-ups use momentum to move joints and muscles through a full range of motion. Spend at least 5 to 10 minutes warming up to reap the benefits.  Here are two more examples with video links.

Where to Warm-Up at ITC

Need more space at ITC to performing dynamic warm-ups or static stretching?

Please use the ballroom if it is available.  It’s a great space!   Please put any mats and equipment away after use.
