Pickleball players, this one's for you!
Here are 5x exercises you can use to up your Pickleball game by improving strength, coordination and helping to prevent injury:

🏓Crab walk / side shuffle: with a resistance band around your feet, adopt a squat position and step sideways while maintaining your squat form
🏓 Bulgarian split squat with weight pass: with one foot behind you raised on a bench, hold 1x dumbbell and perform a single leg squat, at the bottom of your squat pass the weight from one hand to the other (can also use your paddle instead of the weight)
🏓 Skater side hops: hop from one foot to the other in a side to side motion, each landing must have hip/knee/toe well aligned
🏓Split stance single arm row with rotation: Adopt a lunge stance, using a cable or band for resitance pull into a row action, add some rotation from your trunk to the same side
🏓 Pallof press: Stand side on to your band or cable with firm stance and core muscle engaged, with resistance throughout the exercise, press the band or cable away and toward your body, using your trunk muscles to avoid rotation

Did you know: some people have muscles that other people don't?? This is human evolution taking place before our eyes!

Here’s an interesting anatomy fact:
💪 You might have muscles that your friends don’t — and vice versa. These are called vestigial muscles, they are evolutionary leftovers from our primate ancestors. Some of the most famous examples are:

👉 Palmaris Longus (forearm muscle)
Helps flex the wrist (a little)
Present in ~85% of people
Totally missing in the other 15%!
Needed when we used to climb trees

👉Plantaris (behind your calf)
Used to help our ancestors grip with their feet
Missing in up to 20% of people

👉Pyramidalis (tiny abdominal muscle)
Found in the lower abs
Completely absent in 20–30% of people
