LOLOLOL not truly sweating it (well, physically sweat as i exercise lol) -- just progress report for the Chit Chat thread. I have what i call the 'new video game' attitude. Brand new video game, I expect to 'die' many, many, many times until I finally get the nuances of the video game and...

BWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!! The Sleeping Dragon has awakened!

LOL I'm a dunce at times... I totally get you and thank you for spelling it out! At work, as i leave the desk and go to the men's room, i do the stroke, as i walk in the streets, i do the stroke --- lol at me. BTW, I blame 42andbackpains for jedi mind tricking me!

ah yeah, lol at me, didn't think of that... wish we had a full-length mirror though

Last night, had my gear with me, intending to hit the club after work. Wife calls and says we have to go do something. So after we finished, saw it was only 8:30, i went and hit for 45 mins. My friend M2 weds night reglued for me. Last night i hit with him, he wanted to see me loop to see if...

We as players/fans on the outside see their games and marvel at their skill (any world-class competitor, not just China's) but some of us sometimes don't think of the hours upon hours of training they do. The road to greatness is paved with hard work. Thank you for the service video you were...

Great routine ... thank you! Sadly i play at a club that is usually overcrowded. We do not have the luxury of a table to warmup and NOT hit balls. Someone that has next will see it and says I'm not playing and try to take my spot LOL But i'll adapt your routine somehow minus the chopping...

yeah, typed incoherently... meant i don't use a mirror for my martial arts shadowfighting, so i can do the shadow TT drills, but as it's a new technique for me, it would be better with a mirror will see if i can set up my phone to vid me as an alternative

Very cool Carl! Thank you!! I don't have access to a big mirror. I do 'shadow fighting' (i train Filipino martial arts) and do my stickwork along with the footwork, much like what you did in the videos. Sometimes i do the shadow fighting to feel the form (like you said), sometimes i do the...

kidney stones? drink plenty of water and .... WAITAMINIT!!!

"That was a wicked shot. Totally sick!" yeah, in that usage, i would know. read TTD during workflow lulls, so I didn't pick up on the sick with a 11-2 record meaning Shuki played well. LOLOL at me!

Thank you for the advice on bananas... i generally have 1 or 2 protein bars with me, but it was almost no break, and was so in the moment of playing, that i didn't remember to have one. Yeah, i'm a righty, as i rotate to my left mostly, i stretch by rotating to my right to 'counter' ... also...

Hello TTDers: Last night, played pretty much nonstop 3 hrs ... very tired and sore all over today... at my age, it takes longer to recover LOL ... normally while waiting on a table i would have a break, but it worked out as i finished on one table and called next on another, they finished and...

Actually i interpretted the same way, however, showing my age, 'sick' in this context doesn't mean he had a poor day as witness his 11-2 record. Sick in this case meant he played very well. I'm 51, and in my day, 'bad' was used in the same way... generation or 2 after me uses 'sick' ... 'phat'...

First off, speedy and healthy recovery! 2nd, thank you for the reminder, i've been in a little rut ... i didn't think to change things up. although my rut is mostly adjusting to new racket/rubber. 3rd, generally people respond better to positivity. some believe 'self-talk' should be framed...

i generally don't let that get me... i used to play with friends and we would regularly trash talk each other during the game, sometimes even during the point itself. they trash talked me more than i trash talked them. generally not my style, but we were a close-knit group of friends and ribbed...

Confirmed.

NL, Vid not appearing for me, may be set for private only?

I am 51 yrs old, stood in line to watch the original Star Wars movie, now called Episode IV: A New Hope. Although, it was the first instance of a Jedi Mind Trick by Obi-Wan Kenobi (Sir Alec Guiness) when he waved his hands in the air to say to the Stormtroopers, "These are not the droids you...

Thank you Der! 42&BackPains has clued me in on the shorter compact loop stroke before. It is the same as your advice. But knowing is different than doing. So I have to empty my cup and to taste your tea and sadly my cup is still half-full. I will get it sooner or later, knowing me, it will be...
