Describe tennis to me.?

I want to know ALL about. How much money equipment is, the physical demands of it, the rules of the game, etc. Next year I am going to be required to do a sport for a fitness credit. I do cross country im in 8th grade. Tell me EVERY SINGLE THING you know about it
and also tell me of any sites you know about tennis for girls. Thanx

Lets start tennis is a great sport, i have only played it for one year but i hope i can help. Tennis is a unique game that consists of two to four people hitting a ball for the win. When you first start you will need a racket and tennis balls. Rackets can cost anywheres from 20$- anywhere in the 200 dollar price range. Being fit will help your movement in this sport. tennis is all about quick paces and being able to set yourself up. It is a fast playing sport, but for a player it could seem like days.Singles tennis as you already might know is one person on each side of the court. Doubles is with two people on each side of the net. The sores go love which means 0. If two people both had zero like at the beginning of the game you would say love all which means o all. then it goes 15, 30,40,game.There are six games in a set. three sets in a match. a game starts with the server. When you serve the key is your throw. The throw must be perfect. You do not step over the baseline which is the furthest line on the court. You try to get the ball in the server box. If you were serving and you were on the right side of the court, your shoulders would face the left side of the court and you would serve to the other box on the other side of the net. If you end up hitting the net during a serve you get another try. if you hit the net and it goes over in a serve. It is called a let. This gives the server two more tries. The two main swings intenniss are the backhand and forehand. I found that i Excell in my backhand better than my forehand. Some websites that i find helpful are:Fuzzyyellowballs.com and mfavoritete is Tennismindcamp.com . Good luck and i hope you learn and enjoy the game of tennis as much a s i do.

What is Fitness?

Aristotle helped define the standards of fitness 2,500 years ago when he taught that a thing that suits its purpose well is fit. Fortunately for us, the cardiovascular system, lungs, skeleton, muscles, endocrine system and all the other amazing components of the body function for our purpose: to live well.

 

Exercising aids fitness in numerous ways, each involving one or more of those systems.

 

Increased physical activity causes the heart to work harder than at rest. That increases blood flow, floods tissues with fresh oxygen and removes cellular waste products.

 

Exercise causes the lungs to draw in extra oxygen to bathe the tissues and help power the heart. Exhalation removes carbon dioxide, a waste product of certain biochemical reactions.

 

Regular, moderate exercise helps raise HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein) cholesterol (the 'good' type). It helps regulate blood sugar levels and converts stored fat into sugars that are used to provide energy. That process also prevents obesity.

 

The other benefits of a regular fitness program are more obvious and usually among the more direct goals of most people who make the effort: increased muscle mass, toned legs, buttocks, arms, stomach and healthier looking skin. Along the way, the individual receives the added value of greater strength, improved balance, higher endurance and (often) a better frame of mind.

 

Different types of routines will emphasize one area more than another. Aerobic routines help the cardiovascular and pulmonary systems, weight lifting focuses on building muscle tone and mass; yoga and Pilates helps balance, flexibility and muscular control. But each of these, and several more, help more than just the intended focus group. The body is an integrated system and improving one area almost always has beneficial consequences for others.

 

All those benefits, at least to a moderate degree, can be had for minimal daily effort. Moderate intensity activity for 30 minutes per day, at least five days per week, will go a long way toward optimizing fitness.

 

A brisk walk, taking the stairs up one or two flights, a short daily jog, jumping rope and many other simple activities can be carried out with no special equipment or training.

 

More intense activity, done properly, can raise that level even further. A vigorous tennis game, a few laps in the swimming pool, an hour on the treadmill or exercise bike, or any of a dozen others, can raise your fitness to a peak with only a moderate investment of time and money.

 

For the truly committed there are, of course, a thousand and one classes at the gym, and every conceivable kind of home fitness equipment to fit a variety of budgets. A daily routine using free weights, followed by a good jog around the park will keep all systems functioning well.

 

And, as Aristotle taught all those centuries ago, to function well is to live well.
