Warm up
Before you step on court: calves, forearms and shoulders. Two minutes, both sides, paying attention to whichever one is complaining.
Make it a regular habit before every session.
For padel players
Stay quick on your feet through the third set.
Padel is played in short, explosive bursts — and the bill arrives the next morning in your calves, forearms and lower back. A weekend sport deserves a weekday routine.
Warm up.Wind down.
VITAS provides a warming sensation when massaged into muscles before training, and a cooling sensation afterwards. These sensory experiences are part of your active warm-up and wind-down routine.
Cool down
After the match — before the drinks, ideally — a cooling massage through the legs and forearms. It is a small ritual, and it is the one padel players skip most.
Other sports
Built into the session, not the medicine cabinet
The routine changes with the sport. Hyrox, padel, run club — three examples of how people actually train in Hong Kong. Your sport? Same ritual.
