What should I focus on after a long break?
Training
Ganesh Desai Asked 14 years ago
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.

We could have called this master class never give up. It's amazing when you are on the back foot in a rally how many times you can actually win the point just by making your opponent play one extra ball. Watch the video to find out how effective this is and how you can practice this skill.
