Have you heard of Cardio Tennis?  It’s a relatively new activity gaining popularity in many communities throughout the United States and other countries like England, Germany, Japan and Ireland.  I like it as a form of crosstraining and it’s fun.

Cardio Tennis is a new, fun group activity featuring drills to give players of all abilities an ultimate, high energy workout. Taught by a teaching professional, Cardio Tennis includes a warm-up, cardio workout, and cool down phases. If you are looking for a great new way to get in shape and to burn calories, you must try Cardio Tennis.

It’s great for players of all tennis skill levels.  There are programs and drills geared for existing players to get a great cardio workout while improving skill.

If you are a beginner, there are locations with specific programs for you.  If you need a change in your cardio workouts or a great form of crosstraining, try cardio tennis.  Even Denise Austin is an advocate of Cardio Tennis.   Visit the Cardio Tennis website to see if it’s being offered in your community.
