Q&A ft Dr. Neeru Jayanthi
Q: What are your thoughts on recovery methods like ice baths?
Ice baths can be beneficial for recovery after matches, especially for more seasoned players. It's essential to manage recovery time effectively to enhance performance in subsequent matches.
Q&A ft Dr. Neeru Jayanthi
Q: Would you recommend taking one day off from training a week?
Yes, taking recovery days is important for both physical and mental well-being. Recovery allows the athlete to recharge and prevents burnout. The best timing for rest days can depend on the intensity of training and upcoming competitions.
Q&A ft Dr. Neeru Jayanthi
Q: What are your thoughts on teaching kids a kick serve and the back problems associated with it?
Teaching kids a kick serve should be approached with care, particularly considering their developmental stage and skeletal maturity. Recommendations suggest that if a player is skeletally mature and has developed necessary trunk stability, they may begin learning the kick serve. Proper progression is critical to prevent potential injuries.
