Marius, you never cease to amaze me!!!

I like how you divided it up into 2, especially since whenever I look at your Fitness thread I am mainly am looking for wrist pain articles, so now its easier to find.

We are eternally grateful!!!!
 
Marius-can 1 REDUCE BALL Impact SHOCK by adding lead to Racquet, to less vibration of stiff frame to the hand/wrist /arm?
I look forward to your reply. Experimenting with 3oz.of lead inside handle of my 1990s Wilson
ProStaff HammerSystem (95sq.in.,purple&black,widebody)

I look forward to your reply. Experimenting with 3oz.of lead inside handle of my 1990s Wilson
ProStaff HammerSystem (95sq.in.,purple&black,widebody)

3oz is HUGE.

Which are the original:

- rackets weight (strung)
- racquet stiffness
- racquet balance

?

Instead of large lead jobs, buy another racquet, which does the proper job from the get go.

For many racquets, the customization is a loss of time. If the racquet is too stiff, you can't do too much about that.
 
Marius- did reduce to 2oz. then 1/2 oz. and have then reduced to Zero,All weights were inside my handle- using original 1990's Wilson ProStaff Hammer Systems, purple &black,dual taper widebody,now in original form(original wt. about11oz), with 17gauge Wilson NXT at 55lbs.
I have been told the conversion factor of metric to English is about 29grams per 1 ounce, and I did have the aches move totally away from the back of my hand/wrist, to some arm/elbow, and may've strained the shoulder & elbow some, from wild experimenting. I also road bicycle commuted 4000miles in 2006(in L.A.,CA traffic) and that , not my racquet probably caused the original minor hand/wrist aches, which were brought out by recent tennis.
DiD BUY a USED 2005 Nadal model BABOLAT Aero Pro,& had strung with Gamma Live Wire 17mm at 55, and it has a softer feel, than my Rocket Serve making 90s ProStaff.
WILL READ YOUR LINKS for Therapy on minor elbow/shoulder soreness

dead links

The first and fifth links under the wrist section are broken.
 
specifics

Where did you find it, in which posting of mine?

I think it's been changed to:

for quite a long time.

Hi Marius,
It's on the thread for body aches and pains II, the only link for patellar tendonitis? The new link just takes you to the two divided links, and when you choose aches and pains and scroll to that patellar one you get a Yonex racquet thread...unless I'm missing something;)

OK, I fixed it as in the above. Not sure if this is the best thread on this subject, but ...

Thank you.
 
updated thread

Thank you, Marius.
I did search the threads earlier and found some good info on exercises in a thread where you chatted with "Ronaldo", but he ended up having chondromalacia when all was said and done, so I wasn't sure if the exercises would be appropriate for patellar tendinitis as well. Can you recommend a better thread on the subject?
Thanks again,
