Stretching and other exercise
Training
Dan Meils Asked 8 years ago
Where can I find recommended stretching/exercise routines for intermediate level play?
I'm slightly over 60 and not as nimble as I'd like to be. My stamina is good. I try to play two hours a day, 4-5 times a week.

Hi Dan,
We do have a tutorial on Physical Warm Up that might be of interest for you. We also have two Blogs on Strength Conditioning for Table Tennis and Strength Conditioning for Table Tennis Part 2.

#8 - Fast Footwork
In this session you'll focus on increasing the speed of your footwork. To do this we ask you to forget about consistency and concentrate on speed. You should be playing at a pace where you can get around 4 or 5 balls on the table. If you are getting 10 or 20 balls on then you need to up your pace again. It's important to play right to the edge of your ability to actually increase your skill level. We also continue to develop the new serve you have chosen to work on.
