Real Tennis World Record Attempt - The Training Begins!

Week one of preparations for my forthcoming World Record Attempt has now come to a close!

There hasn't been too much work on my stamina, fitness or tennis yet! I have spent most of the week working on agreeing the World Record to be attempted with Guinness World Records and promoting the event through Facebook and my Sport Relief pages.


I have however been taking advice on how best to prepare, both from Tony at the club and from Lucozade. I now have a plan on what I need to do regarding keeping the tennis going for as long as possible on the day, both from a stamina point of view and from a nutition perspective.


Now the real work begins! I will now try to play as much Real Tennis as I can - the best preparation - gradually increasing continuous time on court, and spend the rest of my free time in the gym or at home building my strength up. Having gone through just an hour with Tony in the gym today sorting out exercises, I realise I have plenty of work to do!
