• First tennis session in six-months

Today’s tennis session was the first after a six-month long hiatus from the game. It was only an hour of casual hitting. Even so, it felt back breaking literally. Today’s hitting session wasn’t really enjoyable for me. I had trouble finding my form, timing and footing nevermind the strokes. I’m not surprised how badly I played considering I’m spending more time at computer desks than any other places combined. Day in day out.

To add to my trouble, I woke up this morning with a pretty bad backache. Despite changing several chairs, each promising to be more ergonomic than the other, I still couldn’t shake the pain off my back.

I’m expecting a stiff and achy back tomorrow when I wake up. Perhaps I should heed what my body is telling me. That is get off the chair, hit the courts and get active at least twice a week. Closing in on mid-30’s agewise, I’m feeling more like 50 right now. Pathetic.
