Pro player shares 5 tips to improve padel defense.

PadelJo
🏆 #1 Takeaway - How can I improve my defensive consistency in Padel?
Improve defense by focusing on a proper waiting position, maintaining a low center of gravity by crouching, using short preparation on shots, prioritizing control and smart direction over power, and hitting the ball consistently in front of your body.

What Your Guru Thinks

This is very helpful if you are looking to strengthen your defensive game. The coach provides practical insights on key aspects like your waiting stance and how to position your body for better control. Understanding the importance of crouching and keeping preparation short is crucial for consistency from the back of the court. He also emphasizes strategic direction rather than power when defending, which is a common mistake players make.
