We are guided by the belief that "Preparation is the key to success" in Pickleball
It is far safer and far more sensible to get fit to play Pickleball rather than play Pickleball to get fit
The Pickleball Power program is designed around, and implemented via our signature 3Ps approach.
PREPARATION - PREVENTION - PERCEPTION
PREPARATION
- Stay Strong and Active: Regular resistance training and physical activity increases strength, power and endurance. This will also improve stamina and better enable quick changes of direction.
- Practice Agility and Balance Training: Incorporating these exercises into your everyday exercise routine will enhance body awareness and improve performance.
- Prioritize Sleep: Good sleep hygiene enhances recovery, reduces fatigue and improves balance and coordination.
- Stay Hydrated: Learn about daily fluid needs and understand the role of electrolytes in supporting your body's systems.
PREVENTION
- Maintain a Balanced Stance: Keep your stance centered when waiting to receive the ball.
- Learn the Lateral Shuffle: When moving backwards to retrieve a shot, instead of backpedaling, turn sideways and shuffle backwards.
- Minimize Overreaching: In the heat of competition, overextending or lunging to reach a shot can be destabilizing and increase fall risk.
PERCEPTION
- Listen to your body. Take water breaks during the game. Don't push yourself when tired.
- Rest and Recover. Allow your body adequate time to rest and recover between games and workouts.
- Stay focused. Keep your eye on the ball and your opponent's actions.
