For All Who Aspire

While an Agassi or a Williams sister might say "duh" to these instructions, the rest of us find this book a solid treatment of just what we need in order to grow in our tennis skills and our knowledge of the game. From choosing a racket to setting up a blistering serve, I found this book very helpful indeed. I'll be returning to it for more pointers soon.

play tennis like a pro

This is a great book for those who want to play tennis and be good at it. There are training exercises, regular exercises, and nutrition information that is covered in great detail by Mr. McCloud, and all should be followed if you want to be great like say, Venus Williams or colin Federer. Or if you just want to be able to beat your tennis-playing friends.

I remember having to play tennis in gym class and not being able to hit the ball very well. I got worn out quite easily, too. Wish I had the tips from this book to follow back then.

Tennis Strategies that will keep you on the ball!

No, but I am looking forward to reading more of his writings.

Any additional comments?

If you aare looking for ways to improve your tennis game this is the book for you.

Great tips for anyone to get better at Tennis!

This audio was very well narrated and every minute is full of useful tips and strategies for getting better at Tennis. The nutrition section really helped me a lot along with some of the exercises and training techniques. But what really improved my game was the section on the serve. My serves are much harder now and much more accurate. The audio breaks down every part of the serve and after listening to it several times and with a lot of practice my serve is much better. Even my friend noticed the difference the last time we played and I beat him. I would definitely recommend this audio to anyone who wants to be a better tennis player.

Tennis Tips for All

Tennis is a tough sport to play. McCloud shows that it requires the right strategies to improve. He offers useful exercises and nutritional tips that can help anyone play at his or her best. He even explains useful grips and stances to help maximize your game. This is great for tennis players at any skill level!

Tennis Strategies: Wish I had this in high school.

In high school, I was on the varsity tennis team for two years. The only reason I was on varsity was because we had no JV team; that was the low interest in tennis. So I earned letters, so to speak, but I never really got very good at tennis.

This book is a pretty comprehensive look at tennis and how to improve your game. It talks about everything from nutrition to racket grip to keeping up overall fitness and mentally preparing to play. Two things I found most helpful: 1) The discussion of grip. My tennis coach was always harping at us about our grip; tennis rackets are a funny thing, and if you hold them wrong, it can throw off your whole game. People don't realize this, and it's good that the book brings it up. 2) Mental preparedness. I get nervous when I play sports, and tennis is so focused on the individual athlete that nerves can get the better of you. You're not on a field with 10 teammates; you're alone, and everyone is watching you. This book has good tips for controlling your nerves and staying focused. Recommended.

Great tennis book

This book is great for starters in tennis. It teaches basic through advanced steps. If you already play, you will probably get some good tips out of it for advanced players and who knows, you might even turn pro! listen to the book and try the tips given!

Tennis Anyone?

If you could sum up Tennis Strategies: The Top 100 Best Things That You Can Do to Greatly Improve Your Tennis Game in three words, what would they be?

Grip
Serve

Who was your favorite character and why?

I have two favorite characters.They are Ace McCloud as the writer, and Joshua Mackey as the narrator.

What does Joshua Mackey bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Joshua Mackey always brings excitement to all of Ace's books. His voice is soothing when it needs to be, and happy when he is trying to help us improve ourselves.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

My tag line for "Tennis: Strategies: The Top 100 Best Things That You Can Do to Greatly Improve Your Tennis Game" would be "Tennis is about honing your skills, strategies, and techniques."

Any additional comments?

I played Tennis when I was young, and I wasn't to bad at it. I even had a teacher. The one problem I always had was hitting that ball with the backhand. No matter how much I practiced, I couldn't get it right. Maybe now that I am older, and with some of the strategies I learned in Ace's book, I could try again. Who knows? I might do better this time.

GREAT INFORMATION

This book is 99.9%-100% fundamentally accurate. If you lack imagination you'll probably get lost but the key points are attached with videos from YouTube. To get the best out of this book, I would recommend this book for children that are still learning and enhancing their motor skills. Adults that lack coordination, this book won't help you. Every tennis pro that are training individuals should read/listen to every tennis book available in the world! Always remember this; basic fundamentals after understanding clearly can be enhanced and manipulated to fit your game.

Wish it was time for tennis all year round

Tennis is a great game. It's good for your body and your mind, boosting your health and your self-esteem. Even if you don't play tennis well, the game is benefiting you. But we all know it doesn't do any good to play a game you want to be good at but you aren't very good at. So this book helps you boost those skills so that you are both enjoying the game and making yourself feel better both mentally and physically. A good game of tennis can make you feel worlds better! This book will help you get better at the game so you have more fun playing.
