Okay, so the other day I was looking for some inspiration for my workout routine, and I came across this guy, Carlos Alcaraz. I mean, I’ve heard the name, but I’m not a huge tennis follower. But I started looking for some workout stuff, saw his name, and thought, “Why not?”
So, I started digging around. Found a few things, not a lot. Then, I came across these pictures of him practicing for the U.S. Open. Let me tell you, this guy is ripped! The pics were of him shirtless, and I was like, “Okay, now I see what all the hype is about.”
- I kept looking for stuff on Carlos.
- Found some pics of him taking his shirt off after some match in Australia.
- Dude was smiling, the crowd was loving it.
- I was just there thinking, “Goals.”
Then, I got this brilliant idea. I decided I was going to try and find out what this guy does to get in such great shape. I mean, he’s only 19! What’s his secret? So, I went down this rabbit hole of trying to find his workout routine, or at least pieces of it.
I started searching for any related information. Videos, articles, social media, anything I could get my hands on.
It took a while, but I started piecing things together. Turns out, tennis players need a crazy amount of stamina and strength. It’s not just about hitting a ball, these guys are athletes.
I watched a bunch of videos, some in slow motion, just to see how he moves, how he prepares for a shot, and what his body looks like when he’s in action. It’s insane the amount of power they generate.
I started incorporating some of the things I saw into my own workouts. More core work, more agility drills, and definitely more focus on explosive movements. It was tough, I’m not gonna lie.
The Result?
Well, I’m not exactly looking like Alcaraz yet, but I’m feeling stronger and more energetic. It’s been a fun process. Still trying to find more details about how he trains, to modify my workout. I think I need to improve my diet too. It’s a work in progress, but it all started with those shirtless pics of Carlos Alcaraz.
This whole thing was quite the adventure, but I guess that’s the beauty of finding inspiration in unexpected places. Just goes to show you, you never know what you’ll find when you start digging around!
