Strokes
Hi, I have seen some people do fake push movements that always tricks me. It looks like they are pushing one way but it goes the other way. I want to know how to do it. A video on how to do this would be nice thanks.
Hi Yoyo,
To make a fake movement you mainly use your head and shoulders to fake the direction. By moving those parts in one direction and your bat in another it gives the opponent wrong information. The movements only need to be slight to givve good effect.
Make sure though that you are playing the stroke correctly first before trying to add these fake movements.

Question actions
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.
