hi,

What should i do with my other hand when i play table tennis (the hand that doesn't hold the racket) ?

Hi David,

Your free hand should be in a balanced position to keep your whole body balanced.

If it is down beside you, it will tend to mean that your non preferred side will not be helping your strokes.

Forehand Counterhit

The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:

Your feet position
Your start position
Your finish position

If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
