Hi Pingskills , 

I really want to improve my forehand cause my coach says I dont use my waist enough and my hand tends to fall back a little . Apart from going to his trainings , I wanna go online and search for videos on forehands from the real professional players . However , I am not sure who has the best forehand .
If I'm not wrong , the 3 best players with forehands are Ma Long , Wang Liqin and Joo Se Hyuk.
Is there any other player's forehand that I should learn from?

Hi Justin,

If you watch any of those players you will learn good technique.  Your coach is right, you do need to keep your hand and waist working together to have good coordination on your shot.

Forehand Counterhit

The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:

  1. Your feet position
  2. Your start position
  3. Your finish position

If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
