bw = 173
soreness = shoulders/forearms somewhat
aches/injuries = right hand

Session: lift & shadow tennis

S1: neutral grip pullups or chinups
- BW @ 3 x ~7

S1: ssbar deep squat:
- 165 lb. @ 3 x 10
- felt good

S1: tennis form stuff


still want to squat pretty much daily.. just had lots of soreness last week, but that was from RDL's. rdl's always wreck me. So RDL's messed up my lower body lifting last week. I need to eventually perform rdl's (light) near-daily too for more bionic hamstrings.

the one-handed backhand is so beautiful. him and wawrinka both. grip strength must be off the charts to pull that off the way they do. i occasionally switch to it and it's so much harder than two-handed.

ya fed's one handed backhand is the one i'm "studying". I use a single handed backhand, so he's pretty much the prototype.

as for grip strength, dno.. alot of these pros hold the racquets pretty relaxed, very loose. I hear lots of differing opinions on it. when my arm is stiff/locked on my single arm backhand, it's alot easier to get alot of power out of it.. if i have some bend, seems to be much harder to get that power.
