Hi coach, 

I am working on staying lower with a slight forward lean stance during rally

Are there weight training exercises I can do to improve physically?

Thanks,

Hi Andy,

I think that skipping and squats are 2 good exercises that you can start with.

That forward position requires some strength and it is often also just a matter of getting used to being in that lower position.  The skipping will help you with the explosive movement from that position.

#34 - Chopping, a last defence

Unless you are a defender you won't be practicing chopping regularly. However the chop is a great way to stay in the point if you are out of position and is also a difficult variation for your opponent to deal with.
