I requested this book out of interest in tennis. And I have learned a lot about tennis that I did not know about.Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. What an interesting book, the psychology of tennis is just as important as the technique I guess. This book explores a little of both. I like the tips on how everything from the racket, shoes, string, grip and court composition makes a difference in the game. I would have liked a little more of the physical how-to, but how to get your mind in the game is also a very important part of tennis. Thanks to LibraryThing EarlyReviewer program for letting me find that out. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. The book is a combination of disparent concepts that relate to athletics in general and some are specific to tennis. The author is a physician who looks at athletics from a physiolgical and clinical study standpoint. The paucity of clinical study data renders this attempt of little value. The information on racquets and the physics of spin are somewhat useful. The psychological aspects of tennis are also somewhat interesting. Overall the book is moderately valuable. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. This book goes into immense detail of how the mind works, to explain what makes a great tennis player. There are some facts mentioned that I will try to incorporate, like focusing on yourself, instead of the other player on the court, and using imagery. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. Excellent and interesting book for players and coaches. Zeige 5 von 5 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Thought provoking and original, Tennisology delves into the science, psychology, and history of the world's most popular individual sport in search of the factors that truly influence successful on-court play. The findings will not only surprise you but also change the way you approach the game. Based on the latest research, statistics, and analysis, Tennisology provides fascinating insights and observations on development, conditioning, and performance: * How and when the skills of the game are best learned * Why pressure affects some players but not others * Whether observing others can improve individual play * Whether there is a link between player personality and style of play * How and why height influences serve velocity * Whether great players are born or developed You will also discover how to apply the laws of physics to improve accuracy and consistency of shots and serves; how to structure training to minimize fatigue in lengthy matches; and how technology has affected the way the game is played, officiated, and coached. From the historical roots of modern tennis to the physical attributes that define the game, Tennisology will captivate you and make you think. It is a must-read for passionate players, coaches, and fans alike. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
