Today’s #PleasantActiviy is tennis! There are psychological, social, and physical benefits - no matter what your fitness level! I used to play tennis on my high school team, and I was never great at it, but it was always fun. The camaraderie of being on a team and working towards a common goal makes the time fly and strengthens social bonds while you’re getting exercise. It’s a real 1-2-3 punch! Here are some other awesome benefits of tennis:
Increase aerobic capacities and reaction times
Improving muscle tone, bone density, strength, and flexibility
A great way to meet people and spend time with friends
An excellent way to build assertiveness and confidence
Reinforces the value of practice and hard work (you really do get better over time no matter where you start)!
