CAVIGLIA'S TRAINING PHILOSOPHY AND METHODS
Competition First: The Core Philosophy
Adrián Caviglia's coaching philosophy centers on one foundational principle: teaching players how to compete, not just how to play. As he himself describes it:
"intento enseñar a cómo jugar en competición puramente dicho"—"I try to teach how to play in competition purely stated."
With over 35 years of experience coaching World Padel Tour professionals Caviglia has developed a reputation for transforming talented players into fierce competitors. His approach emphasizes that success in padel requires far more than technical proficiency—it demands comprehensive preparation across technique, tactics, positioning, and athletic conditioning, all integrated with mental resilience and competitive intelligence.
Intensive, Competition-Ready Training Methods
Caviglia's intensive clinics at UNOmas club are meticulously engineered to replicate the pressure, tactical complexity, and unpredictability of elite competition—the exact conditions you face at Preier Padel level. Each session delivers uncompromising, high-intensity training designed exclusively for pro, semi-pro, and national-level athletes committed to gaining measurable competitive advantage. With a maximum of just three carefully selected players per session, these extended two-hour non-stop blocks ensure individualized coaching precision that transforms weaknesses into weapons.
The training progression moves systematically from specialized shots and tactical refinement through advanced defensive techniques, attacking strategies, and situational game intelligence—the exact skills that differentiate winners from competitors at the highest levels. Caviglia emphasizes that delivery, relentless work ethic, and a scientifically structured training plan form the non-negotiable foundation for players seeking to dominate their division. His proven methodology has shaped World Champions Cristian Gutiérrez and Fernando Poggi, guided Miguel Lamperti, and developed numerous World Padel Tour competitors.
Individualized Player Development
Rather than applying a universal coaching method, Caviglia analyzes each player individually to identify weaknesses and systematically convert them into strengths, believing that proper training is essential for players to differentiate themselves from their competitors. This bespoke approach recognizes that no two players have identical needs, and true coaching excellence lies in tailoring instruction to each athlete's unique profile and aspirations.
The Socratic Method: Teaching Through Questions
Known for his demanding yet understanding approach, Caviglia treats every student—whether a club monitor or a professional athlete—with equal respect and closeness, stopping play to ask players what they believe they're doing wrong and guiding them to self-correct rather than simply imposing solutions. This Socratic method builds both technical competence and mental autonomy, essential qualities for handling the psychological pressure of competition.
Legacy: A Mentor Beyond the Court
His philosophy of continuous learning and daily improvement has made him a sought-after coach across Spain, Italy, and Latin America, with players describing him as a "padrazo" or a "father figure" who demands excellence while motivating without pressure. This unique blend of rigor and empathy has proven transformative for generations of professional and aspiring padel athletes.

Training on Lanzarote's Beach:
The Endless Summer
Year-Round Perfect Climate
Lanzarote's subtropical climate delivers what no other training location can: consistent warmth with average temperatures of 21°C, minimal rainfall, and gentle Atlantic trade breezes throughout the entire year. This eliminates climate variability that disrupts training consistency in seasonal climates, ensuring every day of your intensive clinic becomes an opportunity for measurable improvement rather than adaptation to weather challenges.
Optimized Muscle Performance & Recovery
Warm conditions support muscle elasticity, joint lubrication, and optimal tissue pliability—allowing your body to achieve deeper muscular engagement and faster recovery between high-intensity sessions. The natural heat reduces the stiffness that cold climates impose on joints and connective tissues, letting you train harder while recovering faster.
Enhanced Healing & Inflammation Control
Warm Mediterranean waters and consistent sunshine facilitate accelerated muscle repair and reduce inflammation naturally. The year-round sunshine supports your body's natural production of vitamin D, critical for professional athletes recovering from intense competition or preparing for championship matches.
Beach Training Builds Injury Resilience
Training on unstable sand surfaces strengthens stabilizer muscles and ankle stability—exactly the neuromuscular demands that reduce knee, hip, and ankle injury risk in padel's rapid directional changes and lateral movements. This specific proprioceptive challenge gives you a competitive advantage against athletes trained on hard courts.
Optimal Training Intensity Without Heat Stress
The Atlantic breeze prevents the body from overheating during intense efforts, creating a perfectly balanced training climate that maximizes performance without the dehydration and heat-stress injuries common in hotter Mediterranean locations. You train at full intensity while staying protected.
Sleep & Recovery Optimization
Consistent warm temperatures support natural sleep cycles and recovery patterns that would be disrupted in cooler climates. Better sleep means faster adaptation to training demands and accelerated development of competitive skills during your intensive week.
