National Tennis Month: Building Strong, Resilient Players On and Off the Court

May is National Tennis Month — the perfect time to recognize the passion, discipline, and hard work of tennis players everywhere. Tennis demands both mental toughness and physical strength, and building healthy habits helps athletes stay confident, resilient, and ready for every challenge.
Optimizing performance isn’t just about time on the court — it’s about taking care of the whole athlete. Here are key ways players can stay at the top of their game:
  • Focus on physical conditioning: Core strength, balance, and endurance training build a strong foundation and help prevent injuries.
  • Prioritize recovery: Proper warm-ups, cool-downs, and rest days are essential for long-term health.
  • Practice mental skills: Positive self-talk, visualization, and goal setting can boost confidence and performance.
  • Maintain healthy habits: Nutrition, hydration, and quality sleep are just as important as training.
Tennis teaches resilience, focus, and determination — lessons that last a lifetime. At Orthopedic ONE, we’re proud to support tennis players of all ages as they stay healthy, strong, and ready to compete, this National Tennis Month and beyond.
