Play at padel is a constant learning for the player who loves this sporting activity. The psychological factor also has a notable influence on sports performance. This is why, in this column, we give you the keys to improve your game.

Remember the four fundamental pillars of padel :

  • Technical
  • Tactical
  • Physical trainer
  • Psychology (it's the one that's most lacking in amateur players, so spend some time there.)
  1. Organise : get a quality game request from the organization, not a daily improvisation. Having a plan of action allows you to focus your energy on achieving a specific goal.
  1. SolitudeSport is important, however, it is not everything in life. Also cultivate moments of loneliness. Do you spend time for yourself?
  1. Learn from his opponents: observe your opponents to learn something from them. Avoid placing yourself in a position of inferiority. Analyze your weaknesses, your strengths in your game padel, and compare them to other players. You will only progress by doing this.
  1. L'optimisme: Use stimulating sentences as an emotional anchor. Sentences starting with "I can", "I am able to", and "I can do it" are essential to move forward.
  1. Know and learn: a player of padel is also playing a game deep down, as evidenced by the negative thoughts we feel during our games. Take care of this internal dialogue, you can improve your game, and your mind by knowing yourself better.
  1. Rest: rest is health. The body and the mind are not a machine, therefore rest areas become the ideal opportunity to harmonize the physical and mental plane.
  1. Ask his coach for help: energize your communication with your coach who can be a good mentor by acting as a guide, and a reference when he advises you during your training.
  1. Share your illusions: share your sports illusions with your friends, as your level of motivation will also increase.
  1. Form: make a training schedule part of your training routine padel (book, articles, etc.). It has to become a habit.
  1. Always want to improve: life is learning. At padel, you've never reached your limit.
