FREE GUIDE FOR PLAYERS 55+

Stay on the court.

The Pickleball Body Guide: seven body parts, seven ways players over 55 break down, and exactly what to do about each one.

Almost every player I meet over 55 has the same story. They found the game, started playing four or five days a week, and then something started hurting. Elbow. Knee. Shoulder. Low back.

Very little of that is bad luck. It comes from a short list of specific, fixable patterns: how you load your legs on the third shot, what your shoulder does on the overhead, how much your hips actually rotate when you reach wide.

I'm a certified personal trainer and corrective exercise specialist, and I compete and coach on the court. This guide is what I've put together for players our age. For each body part: why it breaks down, the exercises that hold up in the research, and the gear that's genuinely worth the money.

Put your email in below and I'll send you the first section right away, then one body part at a time. It's free, and it stays free.

    Inside the guide: knee, shoulder, elbow, lower back, hip, wrist and hand, ankle and foot. Each one gets the same treatment. The movement pattern that causes the problem, the exercises that hold up in the research, and the two or three pieces of gear actually worth owning.
