I always assumed Serena Williams had an incredibly intense workout routine, but wow, seeing it in action is really something else. The tennis pro recently shared a glimpse of her at-home exercises on TikTok in what appears to be preparation for the US Open next month. “Did someone say tennis?” she captioned the video on Instagram.
At the start of stay-at-home orders, Williams took six weeks off of tennis and focused on letting her body heal from previous injuries. Recently, however, she has returned to the court (sometimes with her adorable daughter, Olympia, at her side) and it appears her training is ramping up again too.
I’m sore just watching her cardio-heavy routine, which features weighted jump squats, ladder runs, ab work, resistance band pulls, and more. Watch the full video above to get a sense of what a day in the life of a superstar athlete is like. She’s the most motivating workout buddy we’ve never had!
