Similar. Just no energy drink or memos.- sleep and eat well the day before (including meat) and good breakfast
- if possible, sauna and massage the day before, and S.X the week before (not the day before)
- try to have a run or swimming pool session in the week before , and one or two 1-1 coaching sessions.
- warmup before the match. Don’t even talk to my teammates or watch their match (even in a team event) if it’s my turn to play next. Warmup routine includes a bit of shadow play, serve feeling using my ball-fixed-on-a-stick
- energy drink. Boosts my focus and agressivity. One can usually lasts one or two matches
- I have got a notebook with memos, advice from coaches and notes from previous matches. So if I’ve played a guy in the past I can remember what worked and what didn’t last time
- watch your opponents play other people and look for their weaknesses and try to read their serves and understand their patterns
I used to be a chef and I never check recipes!
I believe in this approach to art and sport!
