Pickleball is a stress on your body… not a solution for it.

The sport is repetitive, fast, and demanding on your joints — especially your elbows, shoulders, knees, and ankles.

And if all you’re doing is playing more to “get in shape,” you’re just increasing load without building capacity.

That’s where most injuries start.

Off-court training is what actually:
• Builds strength to handle volume
• Improves joint stability and control
• Increases your tolerance to longer matches
• Keeps you playing consistently (not constantly recovering)

Play as much as you want — but if you want to last, your body needs more than just reps.

Train for the game… not just in it.

“Should I stop playing if I have Pickleball Elbow?”

Not necessarily.

In many cases, you can keep playing as long as the pain is managed and you’re addressing the real issue.

A lot of players assume the answer is complete rest.
But tendons don’t rebuild by doing nothing.

They adapt when they’re progressively loaded the right way.

That means dialing in:
• the right rehab exercises
• the right amount of play
• and the right progression back to full intensity

When you combine those things, you’re not just masking pain — you’re actually improving the tendon’s capacity so it can tolerate the demands of the game again.

That’s the difference between temporary relief and long-term change.

This is why your pickleball elbow exercises aren’t workin👇🏼

People choose weights that are way too easy‼️

If the forearm and grip aren’t being challenged, the tendon has no reason to adapt.

That’s why exercises sometimes “feel good” but don’t actually fix the problem.

With movements like suitcase carries, the goal is to gradually increase the load until the grip, forearm, and elbow are truly working.

That’s how you rebuild the tendon so it can tolerate the demands of pickleball again.

Elbow pain from pickleball?

It’s not random — and it’s not just “getting older.”👇🏼

Pickleball elbow is quickly becoming the new tennis elbow… but most players are managing it the wrong way.

So what actually is it?
Why does it happen?
And more importantly — how do you fix it and stay on the court?

As a physical therapist, here’s how I explain it:

It’s typically a load issue. Too much stress through the wrist and forearm in too short of a time frame → irritation at the tendon that connects those muscles to your elbow.

The goal isn’t just to calm it down❌

The goal is to build your capacity back up so you can RETURN to play — and STAY there✅

If your elbow hurts after pickleball… it might not just be your swing. Every mish*t sends vibration up the arm — and over time that adds up.

As a PT, I look for ways to reduce stress on the elbow without telling people to stop playing. Paddle feel, sweet spot, and vibration control make a bigger difference than most players realize.

Less harsh feedback = happier elbows and more comfortable reps.

If you play a lot and your arm feels it… your paddle might be part of the problem.
