Pickleball for Life: Prevent Injury, Play Your Best, & Enjoy the Game

Description

Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in America, in large part because it is so accessible. It seems like everyone can play it, regardless of age or athletic ability. Bursts of high-intensity effort during a game, however, can lead to injuries. Overstretching to reach a ball, taking a tumble during a point, or not adequately warming up before a game is all too common.

While it is easy to pick up a paddle and learn to play, it can be challenging to know how to prevent an injury. For this reason, Pickleball for Life: Prevent Injury, Play Your Best & Enjoy the Game is an important resource for all pickleball players. Coauthored by a personal fitness trainer and a physician, this book offers needed guidance to players at all skill levels and entry points.

Pickleball for Life helps readers through everything from a proper nutritional plan, pickleball training activities, and a head-to-toe approach for injury prevention to a brief pre- and postgame routine. The book also points to additional helpful resources, like videos that demonstrate appropriate exercises. With its easy-to-read conversational tone, readers will feel as though a personal trainer is helping them reach their unique pickleball goals.
