ive played tennis for about a year. i dont have huge muscles o.o;;

maybe it depends on how much you play and how much arm movements you do & running you do

Just look at tennismen, they do not have bulky arms (which is hideous to me). But their arms are muscled, which is not a bad thing. Of course, it won't grow bigger in a matter of weeks, probably in a year or so I think. But beside Nadal, I've never ever seen a tennisman with huuuuge triceps/biceps or whatever.

It'll make your arms look healthier and.. hotter? xD

But not that much.

it will definately tone, but not make them bulky. the part that gets muscle-y is the part right below the side of the elbow...i dont know how else to explain it, but yeah. it's not like it looks hideous and most people can't tell except on guys.

i think one of your arms get a bit bulkier than the other.. it depends if you're a righty or a lefty. and yea i think your legs do get a bit muscular.. as for me, i need to get rid of the fat and get in shape which means i hafta work hard this year. it's my last year for tennis too so i'm planning on working hard & try to win as many games as possible! :) ... and i need the workout T__T;;

i've been playing tennis consecutively for like 3 years now...

and there is a slight difference between my right and left arm,

but nothing that big.

you cant really notice it.

but then again...i have really skinny chopstick arms TTTT___________TTTT

my brother however is a LITTLE worse, but i think it really depends on girls and guys....

wellz, i think in any sport (unless u work out both equally) one side becomes bigger tahn others, if u want the best bod, do water polo, tan and great ab workout (six pack~) but i also did tennis a lot and it was hella fun. i did taekwondo for a long while and my right leg is bigger than my left, and so is my right arm -_____-;; but only i can notice it

i played tennis for 6 years.. and then i quit lol. but i was never more fit and in shape than when i played tennis, so i say keep doing it!! your arms will be toned and stronger, but it doesn't mean you'll have humongous, muscley arms lol

no

from playing tennis i dont think ive seen any of my friends become more built

but the pro tennis players work out obviously to be stronger which lets them hit the ball harder

I've been playing tennis since I've been about 5, and my right arm looks a bit stronger or w/e compared to my left.

Back when I was younger I would be playing tennis everyday, and my friends and classmates at school would always be asking me how I had such big looking muscles for my age, haha.

It's true, your dominant hand will be a tiny bit thicker but it's not noticable at all. Don't fret it if you love tennis so much.

well hes a guy, guys develop more muscles. Girls don't get super buff like guys do -_-, im not sure cuz i don't play tennis but if you look at the atheletes their arms are really toned and strong, it won't make ur arms look bulky, anyways theres always stretching and pilates
