About this listen

Losing matches is part of padel—but knowing how to respond to those losses is what really defines your level. In this episode, we break down how to bounce back after a tough defeat, a match you feel you should’ve won, or even a frustrating losing streak.

We talk about why margins in padel are so small, how expectations and emotions can spiral after a loss, and why focusing on the process—not the outcome—is the key to long-term improvement. You’ll learn practical ways to reset mentally, reflect objectively, and step back on court with confidence for your next match.

If you’ve ever walked off court frustrated and wondered how to move forward, this episode is for you.
