Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

Recovery is so important! And it's one of the reasons I want to play more compact. Better balance, staying within my radius of control, more stability in my own power and as a result, quicker recovery.
I don't have much youthful quickness in my feet so I have to mitigate that by just not tipping the balance of my upper body too far out.

Recovery is 90% mind + 10% body/muscle

No mate, in my mind I'm always so ready for the next shot but my body is nowhere near the right place

Mind + eye, then body. If you can't recover all the time, you are just playing against someone much better than you.

The unstated problem in all table tennis complaints about many things related to performance... the other player jus reads the game faster than you do, it might not be about the pips etc....
