Pickleball Strength Training Phase 1

Glenn's Gym

Coach
Glenn Harris

As a strength and conditioning coach, who also plays pickleball, I recognize the importance of building and maintaining strength, mobility, and flexibility in order for to enjoy the fastest growing sport in the country. This program is intended to give you a ground level exposure to strength training that will help improve your movement on the court. You will experience a stronger core for more powerful shots. You will also gain strength in your lower body to help you get to those cross court dinks, as well as those baseline lobs. Finally, strengthening your upper body will increase that power needed for those hard to return serves. Are you ready? 0-0-Start!

Improved Agility
The small pickleball court requires a lot of quickness to get to your opponents shots. Improved strength will improve your ability to change direction better. You will be able to keep your hips lower which will help you change direction faster.
