Swiss Ball Workout: Tennis Functional Training

The Swiss Ball Workout consists of 5 tennis functional training exercises to optimize synchronicity of the neuromuscular system in order to improve tennis-specific movement patterns.

During the Swiss Ball Workout the focus is on improving neuromuscular system efficiency because the neuromuscular system works in sync when you move on the court and hit the ball.

Improving balance, stability and body control is important for any athlete because it enhances proprioception (nervous system component responsible for maintaining stability) and muscle stabilizers. Thereby, improving the neuromuscular system with regards to maintaining balance and stability.

Emphasis is on the synchronized activation of various muscle groups and stabilizer development to improve performance and avoid injuries.

Since stabilizers will become stronger we can enhance performance and minimize the risk for injuries by enhancing overall joint integrity.
