Hi Dulguun,
You can use what we can "Shadow play". You do the action of the stroke without the ball. Stand in front of a mirror if you can and watch what your stroke looks like as well.
Then you can also use any table, it doesn't have to be a proper Table Tennis table to hit on if you have a partner or if you put it up against a wall you can hit it on there as well.
Take a look at our lesson on Practicing Alone for some more tips.

Our advice is to avoid the backhand smash and play the forehand smash instead. However if you do get caught out and need to play it, watch this video to learn the right technique to use.

You can do what I call a shadow multiball (it's less ridiculous than singing in the shower). That way you have to move around a lot in order to exercise your legs.
