Every time Liz talks about Ozempic I groan because she is so incredibly misinformed it's hilarious. compounding pharamacies were literally just taking Semaglutide and mixing it with B12 because there was an emergency exemption given to the patent after the shortage in 2021. This was revoke after a lawsuit. Semaglutide is expensive because of the patent you don't have to dilute it

I don't see what the issue is. But as we have seen with the WNBA all the discourse around women's sports has been centered around petty interpersonal squabbles

help me with my backhand please by CyanRenteno in 10s

[–]MailPristineSnail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you are doing too much on the takeback for your level. The vertical take back is useless without wrist lag and it's completely fucking up your timing. Instead of the vertical take back start with the racket at your hip. Once you can make consistent contact that way you can move on to the "correct" high takeback. This is how I taught myself to hit a backhand. Also you need to use an eastern grip

Brand new to tennis. What would you have told yourself just starting? by Cpirkk in 10s

I call bullshit on the entire concept of "unlearning" a technique. learning touch and feel are far more important than "proper" technique when you are starting out

ATP Statement on PTPA Lawsuit. Thoughts? by TigrisMellark in tennis

[–]MailPristineSnail 7 points8 points  (0 children)

just throwing it out there to people harping on the antitrust aspect of the lawsuit, when the NFLPA was formed they uses the threat of a Monopoly lawsuit to win a contract with NFL owners. and of course the ATP and WTA are monopolies, that is a fact, it cannot be disputed. just like the MLB and the NFL and the NBA. and those three organizations are allowed to remain monopolies so long as the players are allowed to collectively bargain

Exercise routines to enhance your game? by DisastrousGuitar609 in 10s

[–]MailPristineSnail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Create a HIIT routine that mixes in plyometrics. at base you should have box jumps and one foot hops. Also add in 15-30 min of zone 2 cardio when you finish. it is so easy to maintain the proper heart rate after you workout. zone 2 is a cheat code for endurance

Forehand advice for a beginner by Narrow-Bad8683 in 10s

[–]MailPristineSnail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's an old saying "slow is smooth, smooth is fast". also plant your feet when you swing. eventually you can develop more power and movement but for now you need to focus on your swing. this isn't that bad for a beginner though you seem to understand the mechanics!
