Standing Leg-Strength Circuit: Paddle On, No Floor Work

Summary

Topspin Pro’s all-standing pickleball leg-strength session keeps the paddle in hand: side-step curls, star-jump lateral steps, shadow FH dink → BH volley (and reverse), single-leg taps front/side/back, plus core-balance holds.

Built for players who want court-relevant legs and balance without getting on the floor. Rep schemes are short blocks (≈10–20) so you can run the circuit at home before league night.

Key takeaways

• Standing-only circuit with paddle in hand
• Mix lateral steps, shadow dink→volley, and single-leg taps
• Balance + legs + light core in one home block

Action items

• Run the full standing circuit 2× this week before play
• Swap one gym leg day for this paddle-in-hand version
