Tennis is characterized by short, high-intensity efforts interspersed with brief recovery periods. This necessitates both significant aerobic and anaerobic capacities, as well as neuromuscular ability for acceleration and sprinting.
In this Audio Overview, our AI research assistants further explores the concept of the locomotor profile and the anaerobic speed reserve, which was the focus of the first-ever Audio Overview [The Locomotor Profile in Youth].
In this episode, they break down the study of junior tennis players performed with my colleagues Johnny Parkes and Jason Hettler while at IMG Academy. More specifically, the study explored the a novel approach to categorizing and training using the interaction of tennis game styles and locomotor profiles. Give a listen and learn on-the-go.
