Hi Alois and Jeff,

Last month I prepared for my national exam, so I couldn't practice table tennis. Now I've done the national exam and I want to restore my strokes and my services. I found that I couldn't do the pendulum serve again and my strokes were awful. How to restore them?

Thanks in advance
Regards, Archel

Hi Archel,

Just take it slowly.  Do some controlled hitting until you feel comfortable.  It won't take long till you are feeling back to normal again.  The most important thing is to not try too hard and not have large expectations to start with.  It will all come in time.

Long Returns

By throwing in some long returns you will keep your opponent off balance so when you do return the ball short they can't just be standing there waiting for it. But your long serve needs to be effective so they can't attack it too strongly. Watch this master class to find out all the important information about returning long.
