Defense in padel is about survival and smart decision-making, and understanding the three types of defensive balls will help you become a better player:
🔴 Red Balls – When you're under pressure and have no time, just keep the ball in play
🟡 Yellow Balls – When you have more control, start building the point and create opportunities
🟢 Green Balls – When you get an easy ball, use the lob to take the net and switch to attack

I think it was also a good way to breakdown the defense as how pressured you are feeling, it emphasizes how the type of ball is in relation to the player's skill level, meaning the same rebound from the class might be a yellow ball for more advanced player and a red for an intermediate player.
Haven't seen the lob video, but I would also break the lob down to different types based on risk / aggressiveness. So actually with yellow balls, you'd do more of a defensive lob rather than aggressive, take the net type of lob. Similar that you hit in 2-1, where you hit lob while your weight was going backwards / towards the glass.
A small suggestion on English. “Hacer un globo” in English is “to lob”. So instead of “don’t make lobs” it’s better to say “don’t lob”. Lob is both a noun (e.g. Great lob!) and a verb (e.g. Don’t lob red balls).
