Training
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.
The forehand and backhand topspin strokes are two of the most important strokes in table tennis. In lesson 6 you start playing these strokes first by getting someone to throw the ball to you. This makes it easier to get into the correct position and concentrate on the correct start and finish position, and the essential brushing contact. You can then progress to using this in a rally where your training partner learns to block the topspin back.
