Tips from Stéphane Penso: Protecting your wrist

Mr Stéphane Penso is offering you advice this week to protect or treat your wrist pain in padel. You may have already seen this hook and loop tape to apply to the wrist without really understanding what it is for. Take 2 minutes. Stéphane explains it to you.

Wrist

There are several models. This is an adjustable band that prevents injuries and relieves pain in the wrist. Ideal for protecting and strengthening the fragile wrists of players of padel initiation or players who are in the progression phase, that is to say who increase their number of training sessions and matches.

Benefiting from a last-generation thermoregulatory and hypoallergenic treatment, these wrists are breathable, light, and offer excellent compression that adjusts to the morphology of the wrist; the stronger you tighten, the less the wrist will "turn", thus avoiding some ligamentous discomfort.

Small tip: Place a cotton wrist and especially not nylon over it, to increase the heat at the joint, and why not wipe sweat from the face.
