This session is designed for your paddle game such as a warm-up, recovery and/or prehab. Padel involves very explosive movements in various directions, so it can be beneficial to cup before playing to make the body soft and warm to minimize the risk of injuries. Feel free to cup your calves to make them soft and fast, and around the knees and shoulders to try to prevent stretching or other injuries. Preparing the body by warming up also makes you more present and attentive – which can lead to better games!
Cupping is also good for speeding up the body’s recovery after a tough match and for making your body more mobile and flexible. The program guides you to access the places on the body that take extra beatings from paddle games. For example, calves and shoulders. Grab your paddle partner and establish cupping as a rule of thumb/game rule.
Of course, the session works just as well for various racquet sports!
