Tennis Training with a Pro

Last night I uploaded a video called “Tennis Training with a Pro”. I was fortunate to join tennis player Karl Adrian Ringdal and his coach Luis Perez for a couple of training sessions and we did some drills that I thought could be interesting to share. It also highlights how hard you have to work to become a pro player.

Karl Adrian Ringdal is a 21-year-old tennis player from Marbella, Spain who was a promising junior but took a break from tennis for a little while (doing mainly coaching) and now wants to get back into the game and aim for the pro tour. Becoming a professional tennis player requires hard work, discipline, talent, money some luck and the right mindset. It is far from easy, but if that is what you want – why not go for it? So the Tennis Training with a Pro video is a way for us to highlight how hard you have to work every day to become a professional tennis player.

Karl’s coach Luis Perez was a good player when he was active and reached 500 in the rankings before he decided to call it a day and focus on coaching. Hitting balls next to him make me realize how complete you need to be as a player to even try to make it as a pro. Luis sends backhands and forehands to the other side with ease and pace that only pro players possess. It is fun to watch and I can also learn a lot from training with these guys myself.
