It\u2019s Master Trainer JayDee and fellow pickleball fanatic here to share 5 exercises with 3 simple, practical goals:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Increase Your Pickleball Level<\/li>\n<li>Decrease Your Chances of Injury<\/li>\n<li>Increase Your Fun Factor!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It\u2019s simple math Team. 1 + 2 = 3.

Super Fun &#8211; Great Exercise, and my wife and I just realized we have over 50 new friends we didn\u2019t have just 2 years ago!<\/p>\n<p>Quick back story of my pickleball addiction! Due to competitive hockey and football injuries, as well as years of teaching high-impact exercise, I wore out my darn hips. Either that, or I joke I\u2019m part German Shepherd!<\/p>\n<p>The good news? 9 years ago, I got <em>New &amp; Improved<\/em> ones! Thanks to my <strong>Total Gym<\/strong>, I rehabbed quickly. Seriously, my Physical Therapists were astonished by my robust, swift recovery! Yep, I let them in on my \u201csecret\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Heeding my doctor\u2019s advice, I sadly gave up my beloved tennis and beach volleyball so I wouldn\u2019t wear them out again! The biggest bummer, my competitive outlets were now gone. And then, as if sent from heaven, along comes Pickleball. A lot less impact. More Fun! Voila! Competitive juices restored, and a new passion is ignited!<\/p>\n<p>OK, back to business. Check it out &#8211; <strong><em>any <\/em><\/strong>exercise you do on your <strong>Total Gym<\/strong> is going to improve your body and thus your pickleball game. The hardest part of this vlog was whittling it down to just the 5 that would have the most impact on your pickleball life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here we Go! Check out the Video for The Fab Five:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Pilates Side Skate &#8211; <\/strong>Caution here, kids: The <strong><em>lower <\/em><\/strong>the level is, the more precarious and challenging this exercise can be because there is less control. So start out at Level 5 and then play around with lowering the level to see which one feels best.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Low Back Hinge\/Extension &#8211; <\/strong>We often neglect training this too important muscle area, which is why so many people have low back issues! We chase this with a yummy, body-weight assisted stretch and then right into\u2026<\/li>\n<li><strong>Forearm Curls &#8211; <\/strong>Besides your legs, the most used muscle in your pickleball game.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Oblique Rotation &#8211;<\/strong> We demonstrate lots of \u201cTwist-n-Shout\u201d options!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pilates Pickleball Pelvic Peels &#8211; <\/strong>Strengthens your lower back and hamstrings, but the super benefit is a supple, flexible spine!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Enjoy TG Team!
