As well as table tennis in real life, I'm also playing in VR on a Quest 2. I signed up for a league in the beta version of the game, which uses the new Meta avatars. If you're very, very bored, you may enjoy this first league match, against a friend of mine.

The Sunday workouts continue, brief attempts to stop my bra size increasing. I've taken the squats out because I'm playing table tennis either "in real" or in VR almost every day, and that's more than enough for my poor old knees.

As you were.

Went for what I suspect was the first time this year - certainly in too long. A fresh start, then, just looking to support my table tennis and general wellness and metabolism. Bodyweight roughly 114-115.

First superset, 3 minute cycle: bench and pull-down
Second superset, ditto: squat, db laterals, db curls, face pulls

All the barbell and pull-down work went 20x12, 40x3, 60x3, 40x10.

Db work was all 8x10.

Finished up with some stretching. Enough for a first day back. I wonder if I’ll be able to move around the table tomorrow…

Thanks boys x

Session this morning, identical but without the DB work, as they still felt tired. Saw Andy K for the first time in many, many years, which was nice.

How does VR table tennis compare from the perspective of a decent player ? I have it for the VR and if i recall it made me feel a bit of motion sickness , probably due to age !!

I liked it a lot when I was doing it, but I only play IRL these days. I do know one of the country's top juniors (IRL), and I believe he's top ten in the world on Eleven now.
