- sleep and eat well the day before (including meat) and good breakfast - if possible, sauna and massage the day before, and S.X the week before (not the day before) - try to have a run or swimming pool session in the week before , and one or two 1-1 coaching sessions. - warmup before the match...

I would let Ma Long and Xu Xin play in WTTC doubles

Spain just too strong for every other team… Except Capo Verde

Because of recent injuries , I try to have a warm up routine before playing which include stretching but also (lateral) planks , squats, chair, lunges. But I like to go to the outdoor swimming pool in summer. In other seasons , alas I always catch cold after going to the pool then I try to go...

I played with my fellow teammate who's all-Japan 50+ champion. He told me the biggest difference between people of his level and me (ie. you / us) is that he recovers from a shot much faster and is ready to play the next one. That is not just being able to play one good shot but 2, 3 , 5 , 8 13...

celebrating a W here. our team won our local division 2 championships, will move to div1 next round. I started playing in those champs more than 20 years ago, from the bottom rank (div6) and only moving out of div6 in 2014... It has been a long road. Although i'm only the 4th or 5th player of...

Now they cancel goals 5 minutes later and after play has resumed after the goal…

great to see Sidorenko in the entry list (as WR37)

It's a good topic. I think the answer is very personal for each player. Personally, 3rd ball is probably my biggest weakness , due to poor recovery so I try to put extra focus and to be very aware. I have my set of serves, and know whats most likely to happen with receives so i prepare for it...

First of all, wiki is not a source of truth and even in this wiki article, it suggest violations on BOTH sides not just on the Russian the fighting stops when there is not enough fighters or when both sides start to listening to each other sincerely. My 2c guess is after a while, seeing what...

unfortunately its more complicated than that. From the Russian PoV , Ukraine was supposed to be a buffer state (already a big loss from USSR days); not one hosting military bases to the benefit of hostile states which it had already started to become. They could not tolerate that there would...

Unfortunately I fear you are blinded and in denial. And the same can be said about Ukrainian side who wants to continue the war. They were many occasions to make a deal and reach a peace agreement but the refusal didn’t come from the Russian side… and here we are years later with millions...

I’ve got a hint for you. All wars are about money. Even Troy, they lied to us. In case of your country you’ve been played out by the US and your most corrupt government. Everyone involved plundering the (hundreds of) billions coming from EU and US taxpayers while your young people die with...

according to this logic the World Cup Should not even be held and all countries should boycott it. Which country is still bombing and killing civilians non stop including little girls of one team who participated in this cup. It has been almost in war non stop since 1941 and responsible...

what a match. what a match point
