The purpose of this research is to assess the impact of hydrodynamic training, a novel approach involving aquatic exercises, on the aforementioned fitness variables crucial for tennis performance. The control group adheres to their regular training schedule without the addition of hydrodynamic exercises. To achieve the purpose of the study 40 tennis players from a specified population is randomly assigned to either the hydrodynamic training group or the control group. Pre-test measurements are taken for cardiovascular endurance, flexibility, and explosive strength. Subsequently, the hydrodynamic training group participates in a structured aquatic exercise program, while the control group maintains their usual training routine. Post-test measurements are obtained for both groups after the six weeks of intervention period. The collected data were analyzed statistically through analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) to find the significant difference. The 0.05 level of confidence was fixed to test the level of significance difference. This study sheds light on the potential effects of hydrodynamic training on cardiovascular endurance, flexibility, and explosive strength among tennis players. The results have implications for training strategies in the realm of tennis performance enhancement and could pave the way for further research into innovative training modalities for athletes.
