Hi Alois and Jeff,

This days, I like to watch videos about table tennis matches besides training. Just wondering, do videos help me to improve my skills? Sometimes I like to watch your videos about serving and I found it very interesting. Yours and Jeff's serves are incredible, so I watch them many times and I don't get bored watching them. I also watch table tennis rallies.

Thanks a lot
Regards, Archel

Hi Archel,

I think watching matches of the best players in the world is also a great idea.  It gives you good images that you can copy.

Also by watching the lessons we will try to explain what those best players are doing with their skills and why they are so good.

#32 - Effective Returns

In this training plan we put together all of the different returns we've learnt and focus on producing an effective return. You should be aiming to topspin all long serves and then weighing up your options on the short serve. A good short push is a great option but you also need some variation with either a flick or a long fast push. Go out and put this training plan into action and work on improving your return.
