There is a great program on the usta website that is aimed at juniors. If you go to usta.com and click juniors and high performance it is right there. I do some of the exercises on that along with playing tennis at least 5-6 times a week and running and biking as well to build my endurance. Good luck and have fun.

80 is low. But you can improve going to an Academy to study and play tennis there, there are some that have school in the afternoon and Tennis practice all morning. Nick Bolletieri in Brandenton Florida is one of the best, maybe they have some scholarship program for juniors. See another Academies near were your live too. This academies take you to tours around the world, to play in small tournaments, in order to improve your game and experience. To train to be a pro is not only a matter of ability but a matter of hard work and money.

From a personal level i would suggest a heavier racket overall. It will give you the power that new players seem to always want yet you wont kill you arm getting it. Instead you can focus more on placement.  With a lighter racket you need a faster, not necessarily stronger, swing. The absolute best thing to do would be to go to a tennis shop and try out the demos. It is the only way to try it. That is how i found my racket (babolat pure drive).\nDont listen to Lady, do not just pick a brand if you have any intention of continuing tennis past strictly recreational.
