I used to get bad forearm stiffness during table tennis, and warm mustard oil massages after play really helped. Just make sure you warm up properly before hitting the court.

If you are talking about tennis or badminton, analyzing your swing using slow-motion video apps really helps. I tracked my wrist angles and motion, which made my backhand strokes much cleaner.

My racket strokes are fine, but my stamina is completely gone because of late-night screen time. Honestly, getting actual sleep is the best way to not look like a zombie on court.

To improve power in your strokes, focus on building your shoulder and core strength in the gym. A solid core transfer is where actual athletic power comes from, not just your arm.

If you are experiencing persistent wrist or elbow pain when trying to improve your racket stroke, consult a sports physiotherapist. Playing through joint pain can lead to chronic tendonitis.

For mild muscle soreness after playing, a warm Epsom salt soak works beautifully. However, if you experience sudden, severe joint pain, please stop playing and consult a doctor immediately.
