On Episode 136 of The Tennis Files Podcast, I spoke with legendary strength and conditioning and functional training coach, Mike Boyle, about the critical principles you need to know to get better results with your tennis fitness training.

Mike co-founded Mike Boyle Strength and Conditioning in 1996, where he provides performance enhancement training for athletes of all levels. He has served as the Head Strength and Conditioning Coach at Boston University for 15 years and became the Boston Red Sox strength and conditioning coach in 2013 that won the World Series. From 1991-1999, Boyle served for the Boston Bruins of the National Hockey League. He also was the Strength and Conditioning coach for the 1998 US Women’s Olympic Ice Hockey Team, Gold Medalists in Nagano and 2014 Silver medalists in Sochi.

On the show, you’ll learn how the average competitive tennis player should structure their weekly fitness training sessions, what areas of the body tennis players need to concentrate on training the most (the answer might surprise you!), how to increase your mobility, why not warming up is the biggest mistake you can make as a competitive athlete, how tennis players can prevent injuries, and much more!
