Product Description
From Amazon.com
Tennis requires strength, power, endurance, balance, and speed, and tennis star Anna Kournikova's 52-minute workout, aimed at experienced athletes, emphasizes these fitness elements. Kournikova warms up by jumping rope, including one-footed hopping and speed jumping. Then she trains muscle endurance with 15 to 20 repetitions of varied lower- and upper-body exercises using dumbbells and a stability ball. Next a partner joins her for the medicine ball segment, including overhead throw, side toss, power drop, and other power moves. She then trains for speed and agility with high-knee sprints, lateral shuffles, and a variety of cone sprints (you won't be able to do these in your living room). Finally she challenges your anaerobic endurance with plyometric (explosive power) moves like jumping boxes and speed stepping. This video is recommended for serious athletes looking to improve their sports performance and all-around fitness. This is definitely not for the beginner or casual exerciser. --Joan Price

Good athletic development dvd, but takes a lot of equipment,
By
This review is from: Anna Kournikova: Basic Elements - My Complete Fitness Guide (DVD)
It's a great dvd for if you are trying to develop for a sport. She really shows exercises that she does for tennis. This was a pleasant surprise as I thought they'd just put together a workout and stick her in there to have people buy it. The big negative I had, was, when buying it, there was nothing to indicate on the case that you would need all that equipment and a partner. You need a medicine ball, orange cones, a big powerball, hand weights, bands for your ankles, a giant grid for the floor, a step, and etc. I wish they would have had the tennis clips etc. on an optional separate part of the dvd. If you just want to do the work out, you have to sit through that. I like it, because it's geared towards improving athleticism as opposed to just sculpting muscles.

This review is from: Anna Kournikova: Basic Elements - My Complete Fitness Guide (DVD)
I'd give this more stars if I could. The only thing missing is the brass pole.
