Became 4d on the tourney, top 3 guys were all with 10+ years of experience, and they about 2000+ Almost able to beat the guy who became 3d (after first two sets score was 1:1, then I lose two games on a deuce) and i actually have a wins over him, but today he played little bit better So there...

If to be fair, amount of training should be little more than a year. In two years in total i was off totally for 5 months bc of war, and after that another surprise - got heart catheter ablation and I was able to train only my serves at home for about 4 months. Anyway, getting my ass to the...

I’m agreeing with you guys, there is nothing bad trying to find something new or interesting about TT on internet. Many can find some really good insights and parts of the TT puzzle that will work for them. But nothing will beat qualified coach, his advices, and a good competitive team mates...

That mostly a joke, am I right? So I will keep it as joke too. Pretty girls actually come to me by their own desire, but I’m a loyal husband and a family man😉 If we talking bout TT balls there is a different story 😁 As I can see from your videos, I spin the ball levels above you. So I can give...

I was starting at 32 I’m 34 now. I was playing full time (six time per weeek 3-4 hours a day with a coach, some times two times a day) for 8 months, then war is started, and I was off for 4-5 months, then i coming back to training. I totally agree, that “people who start not as youngsters...

Thank you, the main playing part of the TT player is legs. And more wider stance will give me more benefits for sure - coach always saying me - go lower. Actually when I do drills, some times I tend to stay higher (dunno the reason mhy), but when I play a real game or doing drills on a score i...

Thank you, you points is right. I’m not in the best shape of my life, and a bit rusty. And I’m a little bit tall - about 182cm. Last month I was not able to sleep normally, because of rockets shelling every night and sometimes in day. But regardless of it I’m still trying to keep training, but...

My coach is telling me, that spin is everything, and I’m trying to doing what he saying. Other coaches talking that if you not started from the childhood - you should play flat until you came to about 2000 usatt ( it’s about 15-20 in our Ukrainian rating, but soon we will change it to the same...

Thanks a lot, I put a huge effort and work in to it, doing various sports from young age is helping too. Plus I have really good coach (I can see the deference, bc I’m a coach as well with 15+ years of exp) But I’m little bit stuck now in terms of progress, maybe bc of the surgery and medicine...

I’m pretty sure Roman is from Odessa, our hall is in Kyiv - and it’s one of the best here. We have players of all calibers in it. After the war is over, we will be very glad to see all the TT enthusiasts in our beautiful city. I was in a lot of cities: from New York to Tokyo, but there is...

I didn't really tense at all. Maybe the type of my build lead you to this opinion. I can hit gazillion balls without breaking a sweat. This is hard asf to continuously loop with tensioned and squeezed body, I don't even believe its possible. Im doing TT for a little more than a year, so my...

Yeah loosening the wrist is always good thing especially for backhand exchanges, chiquitas etc, but with 09c on forehand I really feel that I need to hit hard. In reality I never played with soft rubbers, so I’m used to loop like that. I feel like I have more control on a harder loop shots

There is a moment on that thing, before TT I was doing martial arts whole my life so for me, weight transfer technique is little bit different than for the most people, mine is more compact and not so obvious, im bouncing my right foot when I do forehand - this helps me to take the energy from...

Thank you for the kind words and a support, I heavily appreciate that The whole video was about 2 and a half hours hours, I don't really think some one would be interesting in looking this arthouse table tennis movie in whole:). I have more content if some one is interested - basically two more...

yeah, there was no TT for first 4-5 months of the war. Glory to heroes that keep holding back hordes of orcs that coming to delete our nation from the face of the planet Earth. Yesterday's when I trained, two rockets was exploded near the gym, the sound was really shocking. Two dudes about 70+...

No, buddy, its Kyiv - the great capital of Ukraine

the best way to understand what exact number of stress that you body goes trough the training - is to using heart rate monitor. It shows how fit you are, how much nervous and you are during the play etc. Other than that we can just guessing the amount of exhaustion that you going trough

This one is really good, have already sold mine, but it was super nice for a first carbon blade So, for people, who wants carbon blade but afraid that it will be too fast - just buy this beauty from Wrighty with no doubts

I played with dignics 80 on a backhand for about almost a year myself. I have tried all the dignics series besides 64 - durability of them is just the best. My coach played with two sheets of D05 for a year and he can spin like a maniac with it even after a year with an ez, he played for 10...
