> APPLYING THE F.I.T.T. PRINCIPLE
Have you been doing the same routine for months
or even years? When something throws you off
your routine does it annoy you rather than inspire
you to try something different? I will often coach
people on the benefits of varying routines regularly
especially if they find they are no longer achieving
the desired results. Applying the F.I.T.T. principle
will not only jumpstart your progress once again
but will help keep you from becoming bored,
unmotivated and complacent about your workouts.
I
.

.
F.I.T.T STANDS FOR:
FREQUENCY: Vary the amount of time you are
spending exercising. Try adding a few extra days
for a few weeks and then backing off to give your
body a rest and time to recuperate.
INTENSITY: Do you consistently work out at the
same intensity? Try increasing your intensity by
adding extra weight, pushing harder during
F
!
.
intervals, or working out longer.
TYPE: It’s okay to choose your favorite type of exercise and
stick with it, after all if you enjoy it and it motivates you
then you’ll do it and that’s the most important thing. But
remember variety counts when it comes to exercise. Our
bodies are very efficient at taking the path of least resistance. We will adapt to any type of exercise quickly so to
keep your body guessing and improving try mixing it up
once in a while.
TIME: This stands for how long you are exercising. How
much time you spend doing each type of exercise during
your workout; i.e. what proportion is cardio, weights,
stretching etc.? How long are you spending exercising in
total? And what time of day do you normally work out?
Incorporating variety with regards to time is an easy way to
switch things up. Remember longer isn’t always better.
T
.
By using these four principles either alone or by incorporating a few at once you can ensure you will not only be
successful in creating lasting results but you will remain
motivated. Learning to accept change is the best thing you
can do for your mental and physical well being.

> JoAnn’s Tip of The Month:
Get A (new) Grip!
One of the most common causes of tennis elbow
is the grip on your handle. As the racquet is used
and the grip is worn, it loses its cushion which
results in the impact of the ball being absorbed by
your arm. Some players simply add an overgrip
when the grip gets worn which does not have the
same effect as replacing the original grip. Make
sure you change your grip regularly or you may
find yourself developing elbow problems.
> ATTENTION ALL JUNIORS!! Check out
Junior Cardio Tennis Class (BAM Tennis) specifically for Juniors. Lots of fun, movement, and
hitting. All levels welcome, racquets provided.
Tuesdays 4:30-5:15 starting September 20th.
Junior members: Free!

minute workout on the squash courts.
> HRC
> Johnny’s Tip of The Month:
Racquet Preparation: As soon as you can tell if the
ball is going to the backhand or forehand quickly
get your hand behind the ball to SET up for the
shot. Keeping the racquet face slightly open to the
front wall will give you more options once you have
reached the ball. Good luck with your squash and
have fun!!!!!!!
