Before you roll your eyes just realize it's easier than you think. - Warmups: light rolling / self massage / light jog or dynamic stretching - Cool down: elongation / static stretching - How long?? - A grand total of: 5-10 minutes for each. - Wear compression / polyurethem clothes for warmth / compression balls work well when the temperature drops - Keep your tennis racquet warm - protected indoors ( do not leave in your car overnight ) causes extra tension on frame / strings and your arm - This is your first line of defense against injury and longer play - before the snow hits the ground again.
