Wrist and ankle weights
Training
Asad Jawa Asked 7 years ago
Hi Alois,
I have been thinking about using wrist and ankle weights to improve my reaction time, can you please guide me whether I should use them or not

Hi Asad,
They can be slightly useful but not something that I would recommend as they are placing a force in a different direction to what you want to train. The wrist weights are forcing the arm down whereas you want resistance in a backwards to forwards motion more.

#15 - Using Depth
In this session we talk about the length of your placement. Often we think that we need to always hit the ball deeper and faster however sometimes playing a shorter ball during a rally can catch your opponent off guard. If this happens to you, you need to ensure you are able to move forward and deal with the shorter ball.
