Easiest is to ask your partner to use their hands to put their hands on your upper back and slowly increase the resistance until you find it difficult. The other way is just using a backpack with weight plates on it, or a weighted vest. Another way to increase push up difficulty is simply to...

Not sure if you watched the same competition but there were a huge amount of upsets involving CNT players losing or being close to losing this tournament... Sun Yingsha survived a 7 game scare against Joo Chenhui, Fan Zhendong had a serious challenge from Truls, Chen Meng losing to Elizabeta...

Definitely take the time to recover and see a physio if possible, aggressive overuse after injury will only make it worse. On a side note, I personally hate bench presses because you have to be quite careful on elbow positioning to avoid shoulder injuries, and without a spotter I always had the...

Dude wait till you try all wood blades with Hurricanes xD.... everything will die into the net

Wow what a match by Fan Zhendong proving everyone wrong. He thoroughly decoded all of Ma Long's tricks this time. But Ma Long didn't use his entire arsenal of tricks - the high toss is missing and so is the hook serves and the killer heavy underspin/no spin serve.

That BH fade short block by Ma Long looked nasty af...

Sun Yingsha looking really muscular and strong now, I feel like she looks like she would belong in the "Physical 100" cast. Such a huge difference from when she debuted!

I don't think it's a sign of mental weakness, it's him trying out a lot of stuff that doesn't work against Ma Long for eg push-push and short game, even quick BH-BH blasting didn't work, and playing for speedy rallies trying to jam Ma Long also didn't work, neither did loopkilling balls from...

These rubbers are simply an attempt to capture the mid price market without cannibalizing their top end product (ie Tenergy, Dignics)

Fan Zhendong is close to unbeatable in topspin to topspin rallying - nobody really wins against him there. Wang Chuqin really needs to bamboozle Fan Zhendong in the serve/receive to have a chance, but unfortunately for him Fan Zhendong decoded all of them....

It's the tackiness too, it makes the ball stick to the rubber which makes the rebound weaker thus making it "lower throw". It's the same effect for eg when you drop a ball on a very tacky rubber it doesn't bounce much...

Fan Zhendong vs Wang Chuqin - whom would you bet on in the semis?

The more tacky a rubber is, the more incoming underspin bites on the rubber, thus the more effort you have to put into looping underspin. However if you do loop it, then it results in an ultra spinny ball even more so than non tacky rubbers. It is a double edged sword in a sense. But it could...

Moregardh had some chances there - his BH sidespin chopblock was amazingly effective - FZD even went to the extents of just looping to his FH to avoid that chopblock... Damn that sidespin chopblock is such a good stroke to have!

They can have all the autograph sessions they want if they can give us videos in good angles xD

Finally!!!!!!!

Harimoto doesn't have the shot quality of Calderano, those opening loops were absolutely loaded and too hard to counterloop, and Hugo was exploiting the wide FH corner of Aruna real bad unlike Harimoto. But Ma Long is a real hard opponent to face unfortunately. Hugo would have better chances...

Yep you're right.... You need to be good at both wings, can't be unbalanced these days...

Aruna looks to be faster in this tournament though...

Yang Xiaoxin gives me some PTSD about facing skilled long pips attackers... damn those balls are weird af!
