Rafael Nadal is now an official legend! At the age of 35 he made an absolute comeback. After losing the first two sets, he finally won the Australian Open after a 5.5-hour match in the fifth set. This makes Rafa the first tennis player to win 21 Slam titles.
In addition to Rafa's innate talent and tremendous fighting spirit, his athletic training has also played a significant role in his athletic longevity and achievements. Otherwise, he would hardly have been able to win, as he did in the Melbourne final, for example, after a match that lasted more than five hours against the favorite who was ten years younger.
Rafa Nadal has been choosing Technogym for his athletic training for years. The long-standing collaboration between the tennis champion and the reference brand for training athletes - Technogym has been the official supplier of the last eight editions of the Olympic Games - began in 2008 during the Beijing Olympics and has been consolidated over the years.

Technogym has set up its own gym in Mallorca for Rafa's training. Of course, with a selection of the most innovative products he needs for his athletic training. Among them is Kinesis. The patented technology allows to experience a 360° freedom of movement to train stability, flexibility and posture in a single session.
It can simulate movements that are essential in sports such as tennis or golf. With the Skillrow (indoor rowing machine), Rafael Nadal improves his anaerobic performance, aerobic capacity and neuromuscular skills.
In addition to Rafa's athletic preparation, Technogym is also the official supplier of the Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar. This is located in Manacor (Mallorca), Rafa Nadal's hometown. Many tennis players play golf as a balance.
