Training
What weight training is necessary for table tennis? I heard people say weight training is necessary for table tennis like Xu Xin? What is it?
Hi Jason,
That is a big question.
The use of weights can help you to increase strength and therefore power with your strokes. I think that the legs are the biggest areas to improve with weights.
It is best to go and see someone specifically to help you with a program tailored to yourself.
If you look at all of the top players yo will see the power they possess in their legs to generate fast movement and also to generate power through their strokes.
Hit the ball faster and with more consistency. That is what we would all like to do. In this week's training plan we present several drills to help you work towards this goal. Each drill starts of consistently and then you are asked to increase the speed while still maintaining your technique.
