Based on the type, duration,intensity,direction of pull/push,bio-mechanical specificity these qualities as per the demands of the game/sports can be developed.It is up to the coaches to define the sports skills; determine the strength type requirements and design the strength training program for an athlete/tennis player/a decathlete etc.

Winning sports personality

ROUTE MAP FOR A WINNING SPORTS PERSONALITY:
Player's total integration of personality is important for a good performance.One may not be able to think one way and show an expression the other way.Every session of class is important for the development of personality. Classes should be enchanting and accomplishable. Coaches should fix a daily target at a rationale which is preconceived and the students should be homogeneously classified so that their daily tasks are fixed at an accomplishable level. Consequently the tasks/goals are elevated and raised for higher levels of performance.
This phenomenon will develop a personality which is sports oriented and developed with sports accomplishments.THIS KIND OF PSYCHOLOGICAL GROUNDING is important for future success in tough situations and equal competitions.

OPTIMUM AROUSAL AND BETTER PERFORMANCE

OPTIMUM AROUSAL AND BETTER PERFORMANCE.
In sports /game competition situation,depending on the type of game/sport,duration,intersity,nature, the level of arousal should be kept well guided and under control.More than the optimum arousal will result in co- contraction of the reciprocal groups and will end in uncoordinated movements and consequently loss of accuracy,poor performance.Less than the optimum arousal will result in lethargy and boredom to perform the event and consequently poor performance. Researchers in this area have empirically proved optimal arousal is associated with higher level of performance. Coaches,parents,players should be able to monitor the the level of arousal and keep it well balanced in the tough situations of the game-deciding sets,tie breakers ,break points etc. This habits should be inculcated very early stages of sports training,so that future problems can be avoided.

READINESS FOR SPORTS PERFORMANCE.

READINESS FOR SPORTS PERFORMANCE:Sports trainers may have to be aware of the fact, that the physiological,sociological,psychological readiness are inter-dependent on each other. A change in one aspect of readiness will definitely affect the other domain.It will be a waste of time and futile exercise for one to teach /coach a person who is not ready to receive the contents of the day's work. The preparation for readiness should have long term,intermediate and immediate objectives.The fulfillment of these objectives will make an athlete ready in a state of personality,physical condition,and psychological development/readiness for winning the game /sports.

INDIAN TENNIS -SINGLES PLAY STRATEGY

A PROUD TIME FOR INDIAN TENNIS:See in a major event like US open we have have half a dozen players enduring/sustaining to the second week of play, mostly in doubles, The happy news is that the playing skills of this players are as good as any top players in the world,one may have to realize and understand the reasons, why these players are not doing well in singles.I feel/think that the first reason may be the aspect of exposure to futures and challengers tournaments at the appropriate stages of tournament participation.I think the corporate bodies can adopt players for the tour expenses. 
The second and the foremost reason is that these players lack in on court movement skills to cover the entire court in singles play,This can be overcome by using suitable track and field coaching know how with appropriate modifications.DO YOU AGREE?
