Most people are used to exercise the body, but how about exercising the brain to become a better and tougher tennis player? When you play a tennis match, you notice if your opponent is left handed or right handed. However, do you ever think if your opponent is right brained or left brained? It is harder to see but if you know what to look for, you can see that the playing styles are different. The two brain halves are very similar to looks but very different in function. It is well known that the left half generally controls the right side of the body, and vice versa. But the two halves also control different types of thinking – the left side is associated with the analytical thinking, while the right side is associated with the intuitive or creative aspect.
