RE: Restarting The Fitness Fire - Workout 3 Complete - Getting Back To My Daily Routine
Do you have one ping pong partner you beat to a pulp every time or are they giving you a good run for your money??
I play with 2 different people. The first one who got me to start playing. We were about equal but now I can beat him pretty easily if I want too. But it's friendly so I am not out for blood.
The other friend has been actively playing for decades and I can't beat him but I've been holding my own at times. He has had lessons at a Chinese ping pong club in NJ by a ranked woman table tennis player. So he gives me pointers and we practice and then play points. He enjoys this as I am the only one around here who can challenge him. And I enjoy the challenge and competition of playing someone better than me. It makes me better.
Note: I am really down on these pro basketball players who take less salary to join a super team so they can win a championship. Weak! They should be trying to compete and beat them. Not join them.
I just hurt my back again. Twisted the sacrum again after playing all weekend. So I will have to lay off for awhile. Getting old and the body doesn't heal so easily.
