Summary

This study tested two 8-week exercise programs in 45 amateur padel players to see if they could reduce risk factors for lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow). Both programs involved strength exercises for the forearm and shoulder. The goal was to improve wrist, grip, and rotator cuff strength, which are key to preventing elbow injuries.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
strength exercises
What this could lead to
If effective, these exercise programs could help prevent tennis elbow in amateur padel players.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with 45 participants, so results may not apply to all players. The exercises may not prevent injury in real-world play.
