any type of athletic shorts/tshirt is fine, whatever you’re most comfortable in, and of course tennis/running shoes. tennis will physically built your upper body strength along with your stamina and probably strengthen your legs [from sprinting around the court]

I personally wear a white skirt and a pink top. I am very girly,but for you they have all diff colors of skirts. Buy a black one or black shorts wear all black. You really don’t have to worry about this if your arn’t going to a private club. Just go have fun. Tennis for me gives me great cardio and I just feel great. Go have fun!!

Practice is a hard work. So, you should be comfortable and alert at the same time. To much concerns about the look could take away the purpose of the training itself: improvement of the technique and self-assessment.

For me, Tennis, as many other activities, is another form of self-improvement and passion. One must overstep his fear and enjoy the process of being a part of the GAME. For athletes sport is a lifestyle and work. For fans – pure joy.

I’ve been playing tennis for 7 years, and I am NOT a fan of the preppy, cute little sporty outfits at all! =] But I usually wear a basic t-shirt (not to baggy) and a tennis skirt for everyday practice and tournaments.
But if you are looking for actual tennis outfits (not just tshirts), go with Nike. I find that their clothes fit the best of any brand, and they have the best shoes. Try tenniswarehouse.com, but you’re going to need to know your size.
Tennis works so many muscles in your body, especially legs (by running around the court and putting more spring in your serve) and arms (the part below the elbow near the outer side of your arm).
I would also suggest toning your ab muscles because there is so much rotation in tennis, strengthening your core helps prevent lower back problems. 1 in 4 tennis players quit tennis because of back problems.
Good luck and I hope you enjoy it!
