Fitness Tips
Exercise: One leg Squat
1. Balance on one leg
2. Squat until you feel a burn in the quadricep
3. Hold the squat for three counts
4. Complete 20 reps on each leg
This exercise is great for developing strength in the ankle, knee, and hip. It creates superior posture alignment and balance. In tennis our weight is often supported on one leg, therefor it becomes essential to train on one leg.

Stretch: Hamstrings
1. Lay on your back with your knees bent and feet touching the ground
2. Lift one leg straight into the air and one leg towards your body
3. Hold for three counts
4. Complete ten reps with each leg
This stretch will elongate the hamstring and improve your range of motion.
