My point is that focusing on mechanisms and using them to demonize foods is a bad approach to nutrition. The Atkins diet is only idiotic in the context of your conditioning.

This is wrong. In fact, lots of people are reversing atherosclerosis and diabetes by eating exclusively meat and reducing or eliminating sugar and all carbohydrates especially starchy and sugary vegetables and fruits including grains. If what you were saying were true, people would be dying of...

Fastarc G1.

Every pro I have ever watched usually takes the ball a very slight bit after the top of the bounce and calls it the top of the bounce or earlier. Mind and reality don't always match up.

These are the problems of TT all over the world. Not enough culture and support to in financial consideration to make the top player base well funded.

Understood. You made the comment about drills vs matches and the key difference is the ability to read the ball. It is why I encourage people to play matches slowly and with proper technique rather than with power. Let the other person hit the ball and learn to touch it with the proper...

People don't realize that Jim Butler was still capable of beating 2700 Chinese players in the US after he came back from retirement. So his highest level wasn't low, it was mostly his energy and consistency that suffered.

It is not as different as you think. The point is not about the level of play, but that a world class player after retiring and coming back from injury was still capable of playing at a high level many years after he came back. This is easier in TT than in other sports because a lot of TT is...

Doing a stroke vs a robot is different from doing jt in multi ball which is very different from doing a stroke in practice drills which is again different from doing it in practice matches which is again different from doing it in real matches. Each scenario adds something important that is a...

5 out of 5 rating for G-1 This rubber was likely the best of the generation of ESN tenors that came out almost a decade ago (Baracuda, Hexer, Genius, Xplode, Energy Xtra, Vega Pro) and one of the very last to be released. Nittaku rubbers tend to be sold at a price premium in most parts of the...

What blade did Jon Persson switch to?

The Rossi Emotion and the Aruna use it just below the Hinoki. I don't know any blade that uses it as the core ply but you can check the resources provided by G_Zhang.

It is a good idea, but remember that coaching adults has its own issues as well. You have to work hard to make what they are learning meaningful and if they want it to translate to matches, you have to watch them play and continue to adapt the training to their weaknesses. You also have to...

I really like the blade and may do a more complete review soon. People who like all wood blades like Timo Boll W7 but more linear will like this.

Thanks! Table tennis has opioid effects on my brain. Not sure whether it is a good thing but when I enter a TT hall, my brain suddenly shuts out pain (I suspect it is secreting huge amounts of endorphins). It is my ability that let's people know that all isn't what it appears to be.

For the ankle.just be careful. It is easy to think that playing causes it when it can be a symptom of something unrelated to or just made worse by playing .

Somewhat. I have accepted that my technique and my movement are not going to improve as my body is too injured to support real training so I just have to play a lot and get smarter. And rest for long periods of time.

They are similar but G1 feels a bit harder and more controllable/linear. That doesn't align with everyone but it works very well for me.

That combination was the best one for me as well... O7 pro with Aruna blade.
