Hi Coach,

I want to know some exercises & training drills that can improve my reflexes (as my reflexes are very slow) and placement (my placement is average good)?

Hi Tushar,

Take a look at our Ask the Coach #188 which we did this morning where we talk about this. Take a look at Show #188 - Koki Niwa's Service Return.

Lobbing Tactics

If you get pushed back from the table don't just give up the point. Try and and get back into the rally. By lobbing the ball high and deep you give yourself time to get into position. If you can then get some topspin on the ball to force the smasher further away from the table then you are likely to get a weaker smash and then you can take your chance and try to counter attack!
