Padel tennis, a racquet sport that originated in Mexico and gained popularity worldwide, combines elements of tennis and squash. Played in doubles on an enclosed court, padel tennis has become a favorite among athletes seeking a dynamic and engaging way to stay fit.

As shared by padel professional Jorge Rodriguez, Juan Lebron's coach, there are multiple factors contributing to why padel serves as an excellent workout. Rodriguez notes in his article for Babolat, a racquet brand, that engaging in padel helps enhance overall muscle tone, even affecting the muscles in the face due to continuous smiling during play. Additionally, the sport proves beneficial in refining coordination, mobility, and reflexes, aligning with various objectives individuals strive to achieve through their participation in physical activities.

In terms of cardiovascular exercise, Rodriguez asserts that padel can effectively burn between 700 and 1000 calories. Given its aerobic nature, engaging in the sport not only aids in calorie burning but also contributes to strengthening the heart and enhancing various aspects of overall health.

Longoria has elevated her involvement in padel, emerging as the latest celebrity to endorse the sport's inaugural tournament, the Hexagon Cup. The actress revealed the establishment of her franchise, ElevenElevenTeamUSA, set to compete in the tournament scheduled for January and February 2024.

In joining this venture, Longoria aligns herself with esteemed padel players such as Alejandra Salazar and Paquito Navarro, tennis legends Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray, and Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski, all of whom own teams in the competition. This move signifies Longoria's deepening commitment to and enthusiasm for the rapidly growing world of padel.
