"When you first announced that you were going to offer CARDIO tennis, I was skeptical to say the least. Boy, am I now impressed. The last time I gave blood at the Red Cross, my sitting heart rate was 58! That is an all time low for me. I have to attribute this fantastic result to your Cardio Tennis. Not only has my tennis game improved, my physical well-being has dramatically improved. Thanks again for all you and your staff has done for me, my health and my game." |
