The secret is out 🫣. Taking a bit of time away from your opponent makes a HUGE difference to their physical demand in match. Volley every chance you can - your opponent hates it! Betcha never heard that before... So, adding some self-imposed pressure into your training will not only help you absorb your opponents best efforts, but you'll be able to send it back with interest. These pictures show a fun ghost & solo. If you have access to reactive pods (or a kind-but-honest friend), ghosting becomes a lot more “entertaining” and predictable. I used BlazePod's. The two circles ID two separate timings of a 2min rep with 1min rest - the first circle is 3 reps of a 5s corner (leave the T, swing through the corner, return to the T), and the second circle is 3 reps of a 4s corner. That a difference 24 corners vs 30 in 2 minutes. You can see I was able to hold effort in the first group, with demand levelling off between 2nd and 3rd. I held shape, stayed balanced, had time to focus bw reactions. The second group shows a continual increase in demand, and I felt that everywhere. I started breaking down, losing balance out of some corners, getting sloppy w racquet prep, losing focus and slow from the middle. Turn up the pressure on yourself in training. You’ll reap the matchplay rewards 🎯🏆💪 Coach DV

Squash players are famous for their backsides 🫣. Big lunges. Deep squats in the back corners. Squash-butt anyone? The glutes are 3 'separate' muscles that together make up the biggest muscle group in your body and are essential to playing your best. But that amount of muscle often needs some extra attention. It doesn't take long to feel a bit achy and stiff after a good amount of squash. Good news for you - a massage gun treatment can really help you relax your glutes, find some movement freedom, and have you feeling ready to go get that next ball from the front left. The video below is part of a 6-video series in the Members Zone under "Self Massage". Pick your spot, watch the video, feel better. If you like this, please share this with anyone else who you think may like it too 🤩. Thanks for being a member 🏆 DV

The bad news: your aerobic ceiling is probably limiting your match performance. The good news: the PLANtoWIN.ca Squash Court Beep Test has been updated to include better instructions, a video demo of movement, and an easier-to-read display. Getting to level 23 is the best I've witnessed. I've reached level 22. Most only can touch level 21. What can you get? You'll have the exact result you need to start playing your best after taking the test. There's no time like right now to lift your aerobic ceiling. It starts with a test, then you gotta hit the gain train 🚆. There's a program for that HERE. Comment for questions or bragging! 🤩 Coach DV.
