Best Tennis Racquets - Prince - Wilson - Dunlop - Head:Tennis racquets are one of those things that once you find a good one, it's hard to use another. Before buying any racquet, check with your local pro shop or club to see if they have a demo program. That way you can try before you buy and make sure you are happy with the product. Then compare prices online for tennis racquets at Tennis-Warehouse.com. They carry Prince racquets, Head racquets, Dunlop racquets, Wilson racquets, Yonex racquets, Fischer, and Babolot racquets. Tennis racquets used to be made out of wood and have changed through the years from graphite to titanium and come in oversize, midsize, and midplus. Players like Roger Federer use the Wilson nCode nSix-One Tour 90 Racquets which cost $179.99. It's always been that the most expensive racquets available are used by novices and not the pros. Top womens players like Lindsay Davenport and Justin Henin use the Wilson nCode nTour Racquets, also $179.
Tennis Shoes - Adidas, Diadora, K-Swiss, Puma, Nike:Tennis shoes are much easier to buy than racquets since they are not that different. Adidas tennis shoes have been top rated for years along with K-Swiss shoes, Diadora shoes, Reebok shoes, Prince, wilson, Fila, Head, and Nike. A good pair of Diadora tennis shoes goes for $80. Nike definitely markets their shoes by sponsoring the top players with endorsement deals. Therefore, Nike shoes are popular but not because they are any better than Adidas or Reeboks. We have found that through reviews K-Swiss and Diadora consistenly perform the best in terms of grip and longevity. For the best discount prices on shoes we recommend going to Midwestsports.com.Tennis Apparel - Jackets, Sweats, Skirts:Part of playing tennis is wearing the right clothing. You will need a pair of warm up sweats, shorts, shirts, a good pair of socks so that your feet are comfortable with all the running you do and a hat or skirt. Lotto is a good European name brand that makes great warm ups and jackets. New Balance has a great line of shorts and shirts for men and Reebok makes womens skirts and tennis shirts. All these products can be found at TennisCompany.com. Along with clothing you will need to buy tennis string, grips, and tennis balls (Penn tennis balls are the best). A tennis bag is useful for carrying all your stuff to and from the tennis court. Consider getting tennis instructions when you first start playing so that you get the basics down and have a solid foundation.Tennis Elbow - What is it?:"Tennis elbow is an injury to the muscles and tendons on the outside (lateral aspect) of the elbow that results from overuse or repetitive stress. The narrowing of the muscle bellies of the forearm as they merge into the tendons create highly focused stress where they insert into the bone of the elbow". There are specific exercises you can do to alleviate the pain and keep it from coming back. Ask your doctor or physical therapists for guidance on how to deal with tennis elbow.
