Difficulties while playing Offence
Strokes
Shyam Prasad Venkatesh Asked 8 years ago
Hi coach !
I'm a beginner in table tennis and I feel I'm quite good at defence. I'm easily able to chop or block the fast and heavy topspins. But whenever occurs a moment where I need to smash the ball or do a fast topspin, I don't feel confident enough and I pull back. So how can I overcome this fear?
Thanks in advance,
Shyam Prasad

HI Shyam,
Do the stroke slowly at first. Make sure you are getting the feel of the action. Take a look at the Forehand Topspin Against Block video first and get their correct. Then as you feel more comfortable after a week or more then you can start playing a little faster ensuring you keep the same stroke technique. Look at the video on the Advanced Forehand Topspin for help with this one.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…
Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:
✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
