Reading table tennis instruction books
Discussion
Justin O'Toole Asked 12 years ago
Hello Alois how are you my question to day is a very interesting one. Is it good to read table tennis instruction books.?
Books like: Chester Barnes modern table tennis, table tennis now B.J Hayward and P.H Burwell, Dennis Neal way to the top, Winning table tennis Dan Seemiller-Mark Holowchak and How to play table tennis by Peter Simpson.
These I have and a few more especially some uptodate modern ones. Is it really good to read them or is it too much of an information load. Just interested and maybe other table tennis players might be too if they are reading instructional books, to improve their game.
Personally i think you can never learn too much and can never stop learning, as you never too old to learn. What do you think Alois you're the professional.? Thanks Alois for your time and advice to us table tennis players. Cheers Justin.

Hi Justin,
I think it is always good to try to learn. Everyone learns in different ways. I find I learn best by watching rather than reading especially sporting activities. I do though find biographical material about players really interesting.
For technical help I think it is important to be looking at players from the modern game. The game has changed a lot.
What do others feel about this?
