How to weight train for specific sports?
Today, professional sports people are looking at weight training from a somewhat different angle.
Tennis great Andre Agassi attributes his dramatic comeback two years ago to weight training. Tennis trainers recommend lower weights and higher repetitions so as to increase speed and agility without losing flexibility.
Baseball players increase the distance of their home runs with heavy weights and fewer reps.
Golfers, going for power in their drives, should use medium weights and increased reps. For flexibility and quick muscle movements, as well as control for the short game, less weight and more reps are better for golfers.
Leave the super-heavy weights and fewer reps for achieving huge bulk to professional weight trainers. Fifteen to twenty minutes of stretching following weight training is a must.
