when practising my forehand topspin against a partner should I just get them to block or should I get them to topspin back?

Hi Dave,

You can do both.  I would start by getting them to block for you so that you get the feel of the stroke.  Then you can get them to start using topspin back to you.  This makes it more difficult but you can adapt to that.

#8 - Fast Footwork

In this session you'll focus on increasing the speed of your footwork. To do this we ask you to forget about consistency and concentrate on speed. You should be playing at a pace where you can get around 4 or 5 balls on the table. If you are getting 10 or 20 balls on then you need to up your pace again. It's important to play right to the edge of your ability to actually increase your skill level. We also continue to develop the new serve you have chosen to work on.
