Playing Outdoors - Tennis Injury Prevention Tip:

- Warm up before and stretch after! 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.

🤓 During this time off the tennis court at Harvard - feel free to reach out to me for any information!

You can reach me at mercier@fas.harvard.edu or 978-273-6500.

Hope to see you soon and take care!
