Good work on improving the stroke. You may have to learn to activate the arm independent of the body a little to go further. Here is one video that gives one good way of doing it. https://youtu.be/hDupIHE-CO0

The thing is that learning to use equipment is like learning to play an instrument or mastering driving a car. The more you do it and the more you push yourself to the extremes doing it, the better you get at it. While a slower blade might help you in many ways, the most important thing is...

Fan Zhendong can make many strong players look bad.

Yeah. My friend back then used it to explain to me how bad the state of TT was in Pakistan. Such things are clearly not immutable. You just need someone to bring in the right level. Saudi Arabia is developing some really strong players. And for me anyone who plays in that top 200 strength or...

I am fairly sure from memory it was Rameez. But I will try to confirm.

The Pakistani #2 once came to train in the US and he was around 2200-2350. One of my very best friends is from Pakistan and said that Qureshi is their #1, 55 year old who kinda plays Seemiller but with his own take on it. It is just a remind that Chinese coaching hasn't permeated the whole...

As an American, I selfishly need the Houston event to occur. I am really annoyed by this. The World Champs has a special history. Throwing it away to copy tennis is very short sighted.

So better to just take zinc by itself? Part of the reason I am so curious is that a lot of people are really promoting Chloroquine in the popular media. Maybe one needs to take it with zinc early enough to avoid the trouble.

Does hydroxychloroquine plus zinc prevent virus replication in the cell and cure semi-serious cases of Covid 19?

A lot of data will come out in retrospect and we will get a better idea of what is really happening. The death tolls are large but all the projections of the experts so far have been wrong in just about every way, even on the effectiveness of social distancing, which seems to have made all...

The first video to me looks a bit better than the second video. Figuring out where to hit the ball relative to your body will be part of this. So will learning to use spin to control the ball arc.

What is really good is that you are getting your lower body involved and this is particularly hard for adult learners to do in a controlled fashion. As pingpongpaddy has pointed out, the structure of the use of the arm can be improved, and you can go in many directions there - he has given you...

I don't think it is minimization but we need to be clear about what we are really doing here. Is there something extra that a lockdown is getting us over just social distancing, face masks and enhanced hygiene? If so what is it and how long should the lockdown last? The virus is already all...

If you want something faster with more control than a Korbel, try the Carbonado 45 or Carbonado 145 or Acoustic Carbon. Harimoto makes sense too. They have Korbel like 5 ply feeling but because of the Carbon are faster. ALC blades are a different level in speed and control.

BMI is just an imperfect reflection of underlying conditions when looking at this issue. It is all relative. Maybe Asians don't gain weight in quite the same way when diabetic or insulin resistant. But you would find the higher BMI in just about every seriously ill coronavirus population...

He is Dutch. His flag is in his profile.

This is a weird post. When I have been writing for a while about comorbidities and diabetics and preexisting conditions and glucose metabolism, you think all these things aren't highly correlated with BMI? Hopefully you will get accused of blaming the victim just like o was or talking about...

You mean beating Xu Xin for the first time is not so amazing? It does take time to adjust... But your main point is right but it also means that the rubbers may not be that far behind Tenergy if at all...
