Training
Hi Alois/Jeff
Yesterday I was practising service for about 3-4 hrs with some breaks. Then I played a match with my grandpa. I couldn't even complete the match I was so tired and had muscle cramps. I was a bit fine before the match. But after the match I couldn't even walk properly. My parents said that you are playing too much. I don't quiet understand how much time should I spend on table tennis. Pls advice and thx
Hi Bhavesh,
I think the most important thing is that you are fresh and keen to learn. If you feel yourself getting tired and bored with the training, then it is probably time to take a rest. Feeling fatigued is part of training as long as you don't overdo it.
It is more about the freshness of the mind and willingness to learn.
Pushing short is a great option but you need variation in your game. When you push the ball long you want to make sure it is fast to try and get your opponent's out of position. Watch this video for some tips on how to play the fast long push with heaps of backspin.
