Pickleball , it ’ s everywhere !
T he sport that blends tennis , badminton , and pingpong together , has quickly become a favorite activity for many , offering not only exhilarating gameplay but also a vibrant social scene . Its allure lies in the strategic , fast-paced matches that can be enjoyed regardless of age or athletic ability . However , despite the fun and communal spirit of the game , pickleball can also be demanding on the body , particularly impacting knees , hips , elbows , and ankles .
The Physical Toll of Pickleball Pickleball requires constant movement — sudden stops , quick directional changes , and repetitive arm swings — that can challenge even the most conditioned bodies . Here are some of the common areas of concern :
knees : The swift , abrupt movements required to volley and serve can strain the knees , leading to conditions like patellar tendonitis or exacerbating existing issues such as arthritis . hiPs : Players often experience hip pain from the rotational movements and lateral steps that are frequent during a game . elbows : Much like in tennis , pickleball players are prone to developing tennis elbow , a painful condition caused by repetitive use of the muscles around the elbow . ankles : The sport ’ s quick-paced nature can lead to ankle sprains as players pivot and turn to keep up with the fast-moving ball .
