Hi Alois!, i have gone to a table tennis ranking last month!, i reached 1/8 finals and lost to one of the best players of Costa Rica! It was only 2 sets. I lost the first 11-8 and the second 15-13! I have won alot of points on short service, The reason why he lost so many points on the short service was because i varied the spin and placement very well.

Question: When i train my consistency on my strokes, can i improve on making as much as i can on the table without making a mistake? like for example: i try getting to 100 this week on the table without making a mistake, 200 next week without and making a mistake.

Do you think this is effective?

Hi Pasquale,

You have come a long way since we first had contact. Well done.

I thin consistency training is a good way of improving technique. It is also important to be able to implement your strokes in to a game situation which usually only requires you to make the shot once or twice in a rally but also coming from different positions to make the shot.

#33 - Defending with the Block

One thing you can be sure of is that every top player will be able to keep the ball on the table with a solid block when under pressure. It seems that this is a pre-requisite to becoming a good player. That's why in this training session we focus on improving your block. If you can absorb your opponent's attack you will be in a good position to win a match against them.
