Working out?

Question

Alright, so I'm a pretty skinny guy and tennis player. I can play tennis fairly well, have 'good' control over the ball, and mostly always get my serves in on the first try (even though they are a little lame). I think that I have a shot at varsity next year and I want to have more power to guarantee me a spot which means that I'm also going to need more muscle. What kind of exercises can I do to strengthen which muscles?

((Good answers only. No single-line responses, eg 'go to the gym' or 'steroids.'))

Thanks.

***WARNING, LONG ANSWER***


Pushups, obviously. 3 sets of 33 everyday. If it seems impossible, try at least two sets of 33.

Jumping jacks. 75 a day

Squats. Hold your arms in front of you and put your hands together. Squat down, back straight and keep your feet shoulder width apart. Do 2 sets of 20.

Crunches. Do 3 sets of 33 and a different kind of crunch for every set. Start by laying on the floor and propping your legs up on the mattress (cross your ankles). Do a set of 33 crunches that way. Scoot back and hold up your legs in the same position as before. Do a set of 33 that way. Now do bicycle crunches (a set of 33).

These will help your flexibility and tone your muscles.

Sit on floor and spread your legs as wide as possible. Lean forward, lean to the left, and lean to the left hold each for 30 secs.

Pull legs together into a Pike stretch. Lean your head as close to your knees as possible and point your toes; hold this for 30 secs. Repeat with flexed toes.

Lay on your back and do 10 kicks. On the 10th kick, hold it and pull it close to your head; hold for 30 secs. Pull leg, to the left and then to the right. Repeat with opposite leg.
