Enjoy a heart-pumping workout and
improve your game along the way!Cardio Tennis is an exciting new group activity that’s gathering hundreds of new fans every day. Not only does it provide the ultimate high-energy workout and a great alternative to the gym but it also develops your tennis skills – whatever your level of play. All evidence strongly suggests, too, that it can help reduce the risk of heart disease and will improve overall health and fitness. So all in all, Cardio Tennis is a very welcome new addition to the range of activities that we offer.

You don’t even need to be a tennis player to enjoy Cardio Tennis with David Lloyd. If you can swing a racquet, you can enjoy a level of workout that more than rivals the gym. And if you’re a decent tennis player, you can only improve the level of your game. In fact, if you’re short of a tennis partner or your regular partner can’t provide you with the level of workout you’d like, this is an amazingly enjoyable alternative to a match!

Here’s how it works:Cardio Tennis combines traditional tennis practice with other stamina-building skills along with exercise measurement technology. When you’re running for balls, you’re working on your racquet skills, your reaction time and your hand-eye co-ordination.

When you’re not hitting balls, you’re doing fast-paced drills and sideline exercises. Heart-pumping music sets the pace: with short cycles of high intensity workouts and periods of rest. And with the aid of a heart-rate monitor, you’ll know exactly when to pick up the pace and when to slow it down.
