PBall signs of Dimentia?

A friend at our club just turned 70 and several of us have noticed he gets confused by score, who is serving, side of court... Also has deteriorating footwork so that it's getting dangerous for him and those he plays with. He often crosses court to poach well beyond one shot.

He's a great guy and was a wall street trader and CFO. What would we recommend our approach be to in spirit of kindness and concern, approach him w a message? Is it to slow down play? Only drill nor open play or doubles? Or just let it play out?

Thx as tough call. I've talked to his wife who is very kind and also concerned. He agreed to get an MRI and they found a "lump" that likely is also causing random migraines.

My father suffered from dimentia and I recognize some of the patterns.

Peptides for PBall Players

Controversial perhaps and have been cautious w non-FDA approved and this category for many reasons

However, seems pharma changing rapidly as evidenced by GLP and other drugs in market having substantial impact to lives.

Some friends and I (over 59) comparing thoughts on whether there are some we should consider w our Dr (recovery, focus, sleep,...).

Again, cautious bc of side effects, unproven track record... don't need to grow 6th finger or spawn cancer cells).

Thoughts on taking, which "safest", which w real impact to lifestyle and positive results?

Attending MLP & PPA

Played a year and have watched these on tv. What are tips on attending live? Pick a category or make up one...

How to Pick:

Which locations better viewing and up close? Better to see PPA or MLP? Good interaction w Jr or Ametuer leagues?

Location/Tix

Value for $ w hotel/location? Discounts, package deals? Fun venue w surrounding city near the event? time of year (too hot)? Is grounds pass GA good or need dedicated seating?

Event:

What location on court? Strategy for watching? Practice sessions and warmup viewing? Bounce around or stay focused? Guessing this kinda like going to pro golf event? Sponsor tents, concerts, player interaction...?

Thx

Discussion w friends moving from upper 3 into 4 skills. We've discussed that it's like a pitchers in baseball going through a slump and just gotta play thru it.

Are there certain things to do to help break thru? Where do you concentrate? Does it happen less the better you get?

More solo drills (eg. wall)? More w partner/s?

Physical non-play training? Yoga, body weight, cardio?

Playing w better players? Similar skill for confidence?

Play more? Less? Take mini Vaca from play?

Coaching (trainer, YouTube, PBall TV...)?

Thx!

Do you find sound settings lost some control in new release (eg. balance front, center)?

Any hacks for when seats down in back and speakers covered?

Are you successful q Android or Apple audio products?

Have you found way to add LLM voice command for ChatGPT or others? This allowing conversational agent dialogue as you drive.
