What kinds of exercise do you need before you play a match, tournament.

Hi Raaquib,

The main thing is to get your heart rate up.  You can do this with some jogging and side stepping.  Then you need to warm up the specific muscles that you use to play Table Tennis.  Think about the arm and waist and legs.

If you gain access to our Premium membership you can take a look at the lesson we have in our Training Secrets Lessons.  Take a look specifically at the Physical Warm Up lesson.

Initially when you are learning a new serve you can just get a bucket of balls and serve over and over again. But at some stage you need to practice your serve exactly as you would play in a match. In this session we focus on this. It's important that you try to make this practice as close to a real match as you can so that when you are in the real thing, you feel comfortable.
