What should I focus on after a long break?

A player is very consistent having everyday practice but - When we do not play table tennis for a period of time for "say one month" and finally after one month without playing table tennis coming and playing on the table might be a little difficult task. At this stage, on what should we focus on? How to learn back the same strokes we were doing? Or is just a little wiggle which we can correct by ourselves? How?

Thank you,

Ganesh

Hi Ganesh,

After a break the thing I always stress is allowing yourself to adjust and get your feel back again.  Just hit a lot of balls consistently.  Allow yourself to feel the ball again.  Once you have that you will find your strokes will all come back very naturally.

Don't rush it.

The high toss serve is not being used by a lot of players and this can be your advantage. If you can learn this serve you will gain an advantage on your opponents who are not used to returning it. Watch this master class to learn how to do it and why it is so effective.
