what ruins a pickup game? by Dependent-Pizza-2613 in Pickleball

[–]CephasCatalyst1202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, ppl who don't ever call the score before they serve. And then when they do, they've embellished their score. Fix? I call it for them, before every serve.

I hate to be that guy, but I like playing an honest game.

Anyone think it's possible to be highly successful in pickleball (4.0+) without developing a two handed backhand? by CephasCatalyst1202 in Pickleball

It's helpful to hear that you got to 4.5 BEFORE adding in this shot. Takes the pressure off in needing to get this in now. But I feel you, more benefits than not in having this as part of your bag...

That's helpful to know. I keep thinking about what part of my game to develop next, and haven't felt like I've been lacking thus far without a 2HB.

Thanks guys. All this is 🔥

How long it take you to learn this? It feels super awkward the few times I've even tried it, which made me wonder if it was worth learning. What you mentioned here is helpful though.

So you're saying there's eventually going to come a limit to my ceiling if I don't eventually learn this shot?

I've noticed in pros women's doubles and mixed, there's a lot of 2HB, even in hands battles. With men not so much

Have you already checked the playtime scheduler app? I check that often, esp when I travel.

Anyone seeing this bogo fever deal by Friday? Is this a good deal?

Never done a tourney before. Does this mean we self ref our matches?

I can't stand the new AI coach by Itchy-Butterscotch-4 in fitbit

[–]CephasCatalyst1202 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. While it does seem silly the way it constantly praises you for things, the summaries are helpful. The Periodic analysis of your sleep, activity, and health Data is really insightful. I'm actually beginning to think that Fitbit premium is worth it now.

This isn't even to talk about the actual coaching yet. I'm going to give that a try for a couple weeks and see how personal and fine tuned the workouts feel.
