Cardio Tennis (formerly HitFit)
1hr per week x 5 weeks
This is a fun group activity that players at all levels will enjoy. It combines a cardio workout with the fun and excitement of playing tennis - short cycles of high-intensity workouts that elevate the heart rate into the aerobic zone, followed by short periods of rest. Much more fun than working out on a treadmill and equally rewarding.
