The principle that correct biomechanics generate more effective pace than muscular effort
Definition
The principle that correct biomechanics generate more effective pace than muscular effort. Padel coaches consistently find that players who try to hit harder with poor technique slow down their development, while those who prioritise technique find that pace comes naturally.
Almost always no — soft shots usually stem from poor kinetic chain sequencing. Fix the technique and the pace follows automatically.
At elite levels (P1/P2 WPT), explosive power matters significantly. For recreational play up to P4, technique and consistency beat power every time.
