thats a LOT of training. I wonder what the wear and tear is? I reminds me of my chiropractor 2-3 years ago. we were talking about tennis and he predicted that Nadal would be out injured a lot, he could see it on his style of playing and the way he moved around. It had a distinct lack of "flow" to it. he also mentioned the flowing way Federer was moving around and said he would be OK. I think his point has been proven?
