Tennis Influence

We all know we can over train in tennis, but can we over stress? Recently people have been getting more and more worried about mental health, especially about stress. So, when does healthy competition become unhealthy? A study conducted by NCBI had 8 female tennis players and 8 male tennis players tested for stress after their first match at a tournament and both had stress, women had more.

The problem with spin patterns are the strings move around a lot and break easier so you have to use either a hybrid pattern or synthetic string so it breaks less.
