If you want to improve as a pickleball player, it helps to know what is important - what you should focus on. This will avoid you from exerting efforts on aspects of the game that will probably not generate the same results. In this episode of the Pickleball Therapy podcast we will give you what you need to work on (spoiler alert - it is actually the easier side of the game). Focus on this side of the ball and you will see improved results when you play.

In the riff I will discuss whether you can improve your shot mechanics by playing - or is it practice you need?

Save/tag this Episode and put it on after your day on the courts.

Sometimes we have a good day out on the courts. Sometimes a not so good day. Perspective will help you maintain a balanced view of how your day went. In this episode we give you some tips to decompress from the day. Give it a listen and improve your perspective. You will feel better about the day, no matter what.

Plus we give you some tips to continue on the journey to improvement. We share the 3-2-1 and 1-2-3. These two techniques will give you the plan and path you need if you want to play better next time (and the time after that).

When you go out to play, avoid beating yourself up out there.

In this week's episode we give you 5 Tips you can use to avoid beating yourself up next time you play.

In the riff, we speak about picking the right game for you and give you some advice about avoiding those games that are not right for you, whether physically, mentally, or emotionally.

We all want to play to the best of our ability. These 3 tips can help you do that. They will also help you maintain your focus on the court. The third tip is a bit outside the box - let us know what you think.

Pickleball Tip No. 1 - Keep things simple out on the pickleball court. Over complicating your game is increasing the errors in your game. Simplifying things out there will help you win more rallies and, thus, more games.

Pickleball Tip No. 2 - Slow things down out on the pickleball court. You do this by picking one thing to focus on. This allows you to avoid overwhelm out there.

Pickleball Tip No. 3 - Extend the rally. Just extending the rally - no winner required - will get you the "W" in that rally. Remember, your opponents are having a hard time extending the rally on their side. Just make them hit one more pickleball. We share with you one technique here that is unorthodox - give it a try :).

To fix something you first must know what is wrong with it. To do this, you have to "see" it. You can learn to see the game by focusing first on a shot, and then another shot. And so on. Until it all becomes clear.

In the riff, we talk about your journey and the agency you have over it. We are focusing this week on a common paddle modification that is being made that may harm your game - or your arm.
