The 5-Minute Warm-Up Every Pickleball Player Needs

One of the biggest mistakes pickleball players make is skipping the warm-up or doing way too much before they play. In this video, Coach Mark breaks down a simple 5–7 minute pickleball warm-up routine you can do before any session to help your body move better, feel looser, and get ready for the court. This warm-up is simple, practical, and easy to follow. No complicated exercises. No overdoing it. Just the key movements your body needs before pickleball. In this lesson, you will learn: - How to raise your heart rate Start with light walking around the court, gentle sidesteps, and easy movement to warm up your muscles before play. - How to loosen your joints Coach Mark walks through shoulder circles, elbow bends, wrist rolls, hip circles, and gentle knee bends to get your body moving safely. - How to prepare your paddle motion Use slow, relaxed forehands, backhands, and overhead motions to warm up your swing without focusing on power. - Why easy movement matters Cold muscles are not ready for sudden pickleball movements. A quick warm-up helps your body feel more prepared before you start playing. - How to keep it simple This routine only takes a few minutes, but it can make a big difference in how you feel on court. Try this before your next pickleball session and notice how much better your body feels when you start moving, reaching, swinging, and reacting. 👉 Visit: https://obsessedpickleballerscamps.com/camps/?utm_source=marketing_team&utm_medium=organic Subscribe for more simple pickleball tips, drills, coaching breakdowns, and player improvement videos from Obsessed Pickleballers. #PickleballWarmUp #PickleballTips #PickleballDrills #PickleballCoaching #ObsessedPickleballers [pickleball warm up, pickleball warm-up routine, pickleball tips, pickleball drills, pickleball coaching, pickleball for beginners, pickleball over 50, pickleball movement, pickleball injury prevention, Obsessed Pickleballers] 0:00 - Intro 0:30 - Warm Up & Raise Your Heart Rate 0:49 - Light Walking, Sidesteps & Warm Swings 1:16 - Joint Mobility Routine 2:00 - Paddle Warm-Up Swings 2:23 - Smooth Motion & Balance 2:33 - Outro
