Strength Training for Tennis Players

Strength Training for Tennis players

Faster feet. Stronger shots. Fewer injuries.
If you want to play better tennis, and keep playing for years, strength training is your competitive edge.

Why Tennis Players Need Strength Training

Tennis is explosive. It’s stop-start, lateral, rotational, and relentless on your joints — especially shoulders, knees, and low backs. And whether you’re grinding out sets or sprinting down the baseline, it’s strength that supports every movement.

The pros know this. Nearly every high-level tennis player has a structured strength program. Why? Because it sharpens reaction time, boosts swing power, and builds the kind of resilience that keeps them playing deep into the season — and their careers.

At APX MVMT, we built our programs to do exactly that. Designed for recreational and competitive players alike, our training helps you move better, hit harder, and recover faster — all while protecting the joints that matter most on the court.

Build Power Behind Every serve

Your swing starts from the ground up. From your legs to your core to your shoulders, every big serve or forehand relies on power transfer — and that starts in the weight room.

Inside the BYLD Track in APX MVMT LAB, we build full-body strength through squats, lunges, hinges, and rotational core work. These movements improve force production and balance, helping you drive through your shots and explode off the line with more control and speed.

Want to take your athleticism up a notch? OLY CLUB incorporates barbell cleans, snatches, and explosive accessory work that enhance speed-strength — giving you more pop on your serve and better acceleration into every ball.

It’s not about bulking up — it’s about being more reactive, stable, and dangerous on the court.

Stay Mobile to Stay in the Game

Power means nothing without the ability to move freely. Tight hips, stiff shoulders, and weak ankles limit your range — and that shows up in your serve, your footwork, and your ability to recover between points.

Every APX MVMT LAB workout starts and ends with intentional warm-ups, cooldowns, and mobility work. You’ll restore range in key joints, improve dynamic flexibility, and move better — both on and off the court.

You’ll move more fluidly, reduce compensations, and decrease your injury risk — especially late in matches.

Play Stronger — For Years to Come

Fatigue doesn’t just make you slower — it makes you sloppy. And that’s when injuries happen.

Our FLOW Workouts inside APX MVMT LAB are designed to build aerobic capacity, muscular endurance, and recovery without beating you down. These lower-intensity sessions help you recover between games, sustain energy through long matches, and maintain consistency from the first set to the last.

They also improve cardiovascular health, joint resilience, and mental clarity — all essential for weekend tournaments or grinding through summer leagues.
