Yesterday evening I had a practice with my tennis team. In the first round, I lost in singles 4-2. In the second round, my partner, Donna, and I won 4-3. All of the play was very competitive and a lot of fun.
This morning, I did a new tennis agility workout that I developed. First, I did the following agility moves for 30 sec each, followed by 30 sec rest:
- Side shuffle back and forth the length of my agility ladder
- Fast feet through the agility ladder
- Sprint, then backpedal the length of the agility ladder
- Quick-step sideways in and out of the agility ladder
- Figure-8 around two weights, facing forward
- Sideways out-and-in through the agility ladder
- Forward and back quick steps in the agility ladder
After about a minute, I repeated the moves again. This was a pretty good HIIT sequence. After that, I did 10 plyo push-ups. Then I did a quick split-step and sprint side shuffle across the room, alternating directions. I did that 10 times. I think I need a random timer for the start to make it more effective. Finally, I did P90X2 X2 Ab Ripper. With the warm up and cool down, the whole workout took me about 45 - 50 min, and I burned 200 calories. Not bad!
