Hi,

I have a very slow arm action when I loop on my forehand.  How can I accelerate my arm more?

Thanks.

Hi Julian,

You could try to do some shadow swings.  This is swinging without the ball.  Focus on how fast your hand in moving.  Don't try to force your arm through because you will tend to tighten up your arm and shoulder.  Just let it flow and see how fast it can move.

The humble push does not sound like an exciting stroke but it is one of the most important shots in Table Tennis. Having a great short push can be the difference between being an average player and being a great player. Make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of practice to mastering the push.
