Tennis Player Physical Training Guide. Power is added only by the use of force. Vladimir Ivanovich Ivanov
question requires an answer and, perhaps, clarification, since the parents of novice tennis players, for the most part, are well aware that this sport is very labor-intensive. However, many of those who understand believe that time spent on the court with a coach in group or individual training is enough to develop the necessary physical capabilities for success in competitions. And how sad it is to see the offended faces of parents whose children do not win and, despite the efforts of the coaches, will not win for a very long time.
To those who are not privy to the details of a tennis player's skill, it may seem that their child plays no worse than his rivals, whom he constantly loses to and they have to make unjustified conclusions. The child is constantly unlucky or… he is not talented enough. And this disastrous, but completely false postulate passed from mouth to mouth, inspired by negligent coaches about the need for special talent, destroys all hopes.
Below, it will become clear to most readers why the only true indicator of the so-called talent of a tennis player is his endurance. In this article, I will not touch on such qualities of an athlete as will, determination, perseverance and other often revealed signs of talent, which are necessary for a successful game, because if a child is not endowed with the power to produce speed and do it for quite a long time, then he realizes his talent in other disciplines, but not in tennis.
force. I believe that the subject of discussion will not be unambiguously clear if you do not give clear definitions to the concepts in the title. So what is power? In other words, how do you form a judgment about how strong or weak your child is? It is necessary to offer the child to do some physical exercises that do not require special technical skills. For example, jump from a place in length, up. Run a 30 meter race.
Pull up on the crossbar. Get off the floor. Strength is the ability to move one's body or weights equal to or greater than the body's weight. In order to imagine why a person, a child playing tennis, needs leg strength three times greater than the leg strength of a sprinter runner, it is enough to see that a tennis player constantly has to change directions of movement. At the same time, most often the change has the opposite, opposite direction.
Alas, in order to change the direction of motion of the body, it must first be stopped, that is, an effort must be applied to extinguish inertia. Sadly, but at the greater speed of movement of the body on the court, the force of inertia, which consists of the mass of the body, multiplied by the square of the speed of its movement, is 2—3 times than the gravitational force . those. in order for a tennis player running from one corner of the court to another to instantly stop the movement of the body and start moving in the opposite direction, a force 3—4 times greater than the force required for the run is needed. That is why in tennis there is such a thing as the last possible blow – this is a blow made at a speed of movement of the body that excludes the possibility of a sharp, quick stop and change of direction to the opposite. For novice players,
Regular features of the increase in strength. Strength is added by constantly increasing and only increasing loads! Even relatively high loads carried over a long time, if they are not increased, do not give an increase in strength! An example of this are thousands of dummies playing tennis for 2—3 hours, 1—2 times a week at the same loads for 30—40 years, equally not very well. That is why we do not see much improvement in the skill of tennis players who scratch and shoot the ball quite quickly a maximum of 2, 3, 4 times in a row practically from the same point during several hours of training. While doing the minimum possible number of steps and a millimeter stretch, but producing deafening, I would say, impressive pops.
Where does the power of their shots go during a match? In a whistle naturally. During training, these athletes use the pressure of an incoming ball hitting a powerful spring (racquet strings). And what do we see in a real game? A player who manages to take the first serve, served at a speed of 190 or more km / h, with a reception at a speed 30 – 40% less than the speed of the serve, immediately wins a point almost regardless of where he sends the ball (to the corner or to the feet). Why? The opponent’s strength is not enough to quickly take the starting position after a powerful serve, and even jump 2—3 meters.
But this happens quite rarely and for a very small number of players. You all know their names. Reception of the second serve, at a speed of 160 – 175 km / h or lower, as a rule, sends the ball at a speed of 90 – 110 km / h. And there is no time for pops, and not because the spring has weakened, but because you need to run and jump, and most importantly – the force to produce a strike at a speed of 130 km / h or more on a «hanging» ball, just as it was not, and simply is not. I used to be puzzled. And where does it go for such tennis players when they have to hit a high ball that arrives relatively slowly. You can’t look without tears.
speed. We note right away that there is no strength, there can be no speed. However, there is a sport, weightlifting, whose champions are recognized as the strongest people on the planet. However, challenge a weightlifter to compete against a runner or javelin thrower and you can't go wrong if you decide that the weightlifter, all other things being equal, will lose. So what is speed? Speed is the ability to quickly move one's body, head, hands, or objects held by hands, as far as possible per unit of time.
