This guide to playing healthy tennis offers descriptions and illustrations of the physical complexity of every tennis motion, demonstrating the astonishing array of potential injuries threatening the unprepared player. Optimal performance and low risk of injury are the top results for tennis players who adhere to the training program, proper nutrition, and equipment selection recommendations in this sports medicine manual.
