Have not posted in a while. Since my friend OldSchoolPenholder is posting, i might as well get back into the party. Been injured with a severe case of shoulder scapula tendinitis and have been out for about 6 weeks(took a anti inflamm shot 5 weeks ago). Went to my club on Saturday and did about 1 hour of light yoga to warm up the body. Took a lesson with one of my coaches(former Beijing womens provincial player) and went about 60 to 70%...boy i was out of breadth...(note remember to bring oxygen tank next time) Felt ok afterwards, iced the hurt parts and did some light stretching & muscle loosening exercises afterwards(using a foam roller to roll out my back and shoulders).
Also have been very conscience of making sure not to tense up too much and try to relax when playing. Only apply greater force when about to contact the ball. Playing loose so i don't tense up and tighten my bad back(2 herniated discs and sciatica down my left leg)...Since i was only going 60 to 70%, i felt like i had some insight into my game and where i should be heading. Relax and take it easy.
Since i was coming back and wanted to try something new. I normally play with Stiga Clippa 2.0 short pips and saw on MYTT great reviews on the Spinlord Waran short pips. Spinlord Waran is a little faster and maybe a tad spinnier than Stiga Clippa unboosted. I also found the Spinlord Waran has alot of gears and gives you that speed glue popping sound that we all used to like...(those were the days) But i always played with Stiga Clippa 2.0 boosted with special sauce therefore i get more speed. As of right now i still may prefer the Stiga Clippa. I will try some special sauce on the Spinlord Waran to give it a extra kick and it may turn out to suit my tastes.
Got home...iced again... just in case....hope i am not too sore tomorrow.
