The Wall

The steadiest player I know, never misses, never complains, and unless someone else has gotten there first, is always available. Of course I’m talking about a wall. Walls are undervalued practice partners.

I think many players don’t consider seeking out practice against the wall for two reasons. First, it is not as valuable or realistic as practicing against an authentic opponent. Second, it is really, really, boring.

It is worthwhile, however, to find a wall and practice with it on occasion. It can be a valuable and intense alternative workout.
