Quarantine is not an excuse to remain inactive. Every day we offer you a session to do at home in order to arrive in great shape when resuming padel.

We attack well the week with a special weight training session for the legs. As we know, it is essential to have a good leg strength at padel, for low bales, but also for smash, and of course for moving.

We will start with a good warm up : running if you have the possibility, if not a little jump rope, jump rope without rope, in short, what you want but you must have hot legs so as not to injure yourself during the first exercise. It is also interesting to do a little bit of sheathing warming up.

Today the session is composed of 4 specific exercises to strengthen your legs. Obviously, if you do not have a lot of equipment at home, and already a good level of strength, it will be difficult to work on the strength itself.

We therefore offer you today a session that will allow you to improve a little in strength and volume. So you can perform for example 3 to 6 sets of 8 to 12 repetitions for each exercise (for each leg in the case of lunges and one leg glute bridge), with 1 to 2 minutes of rest between sets.

We will start with a squat two legs start bench, and we will perform the slowly descend on one leg. Then, the kettlebell swing that you already know. Possibility to replace the kettlebell with any other object that weighs a little. We continue with fentes, avoiding leaning forward. And we end up one leg glute bridge : you bring your heels closer to your feet and you go up on one leg while contracting your buttocks.

Good session !
