Hi Ankit,

Blocking is a skill that you should practice.  If you are practicing with a partner use the time when they are practicing a routine to practice your blocking.

It is something that a lot of players overlook.  The best players have a very good defensive block.

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.
