Increasing hand power

Training

Tushar Rajguru Asked 12 years ago

Hey coach , my of my collegues told me frequently that to strength my hands and to make my topspins and other strokes more powerful I have to do push ups regularly ..... so can you tell me the right manner to do push ups or any other drills to increase my hand power .

Hi Tushar,

I am not sure of the value of push ups specifically for Table Tennis.

I don't think hand power is a huge factor. Push ups may be good for general strength. If you want to do things more specific for Table Tennis take a look at Strength Conditioning for Table Tennis and Weight Training Specifically for Table Tennis as a guide.
