Forehand and backhand push
Strokes
Il Ill Asked 9 years ago
Master Rosario,...
When I play forehand and backhand push , I have to use my wrist in the moment of the contact or not always?
Sometimes only arm and forearm?
Thank you in advance.

Hi Il,
When you are starting it is best to not use your wrist for the push. As you develop you can start to use the wrist more. It is like most strokes as you develop you can use more parts of the body. Initially it is good to keep it as simple as possible.

The Push in Detail
The humble push does not sound like an exciting stroke but it is one of the most important shots in Table Tennis. Having a great short push can be the difference between being an average player and being a great player. Make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of practice to mastering the push.
