When it comes to padel training, fundamentals are important.From grip and swing, to fitness, to technique, everything has to stick.
The first is physical strength.
This is very important.The physical demands of both men and women are undeniable.The training method is very simple.Gym work and running.Good physical fitness is the foundation of all sports.
Second is the pace.
There is no flexible pace, is no matter how good physical fitness also has little effect.People with poor footwork are likely to cramp up in order to save the ball, to fall, to make the reflex arc suddenly longer, splits and so on, all because of poor footwork.This is the traditional exercise.The practice of footsteps will make you more able to grasp the ball landing and the rhythm of the shot.Don’t stand on your feet when you’re ready. Be ready.Which brings us back to prediction.Anticipation is based on strong footwork, especially when receiving a serve.
The swing also plays a big role.
The first thing you have to do is hold your racket correctly, and when you actually practice your swing, you go from the swing to the swing.A spot shot is when your coach, friend, classmate, etc., throws the ball to you, you don’t move much, you stay ready to hit the ball, and you hit the ball.A return shot is when your coach, friend, classmate, etc. stands across from the king of the ball and serves it to you with the underhand of the racket, and you return it.It may involve the movement of the feet, the anticipation of the landing point.And so on.If you have someone who can record training videos for you, then go back and watch them against each other.
When your fitness, strength, and footwork have been developed to a certain extent, you can practice an upgraded version of the air swing, the iron swing.Add iron pieces to the hitting point of the racket to increase the weight of the racket head.But make sure you do your swing correctly.This allows you to control the racket head more, to hit the ball more smartly, to improve your arm strength better.By the way, the racket is a big arm with a small arm, do not use the wrist power, which is very different from badminton.
If you have all these, you can start to practice, persevere, in time will become a padel master!!
