Too much table tennis

Training

Hi Alois and Jeff,

Simple question, how much table tennis would you say is too much? I want to try and play more, but am only a local league player. I know sometimes a rest can be as useful as a practice, but do you think there is such thing as playing too much?

Thanks

Hi Simon,

There is such a thing as playing too much.  If you are enjoying your training and are able to stay focused then you should keep going.  If you are not enjoying it and finding your mind wandering during sessions then it is probably time to rest.  This is really individual for everyone but take that as a guideline.

#46 - Tournament Preparation 2

In the first week of your preparation we focused on the consistency of your third ball attack. This week, since the third ball is so important, we are going to continue working on this. However this week we are going to focus on placement. It is really important tactically to think about where you are going to play the ball. We build upon the drills from last week so you can improve the effectiveness of your third ball through placement.
