Core rotation and sideways movement improve padel shots.
What Your Guru Thinks
The coach makes a very strong point about the importance of being sideways for almost every shot in padel. They explain how this position, combined with core rotation, is fundamental for generating power, control, and efficient movement around the court. Understanding how to use your core for preparation and follow-through is key, and the coach shows how being square limits your options. It's a core concept that applies across many different types of shots you'll hit.
