Penhold techniques
Strokes
Joseph Park Asked 9 years ago
Dear Alois,
I have watched your videos and I'm wondering if all of the strokes you've covered is also the same for pen holders. Since I am one, I think it is important to ask this question.

Hi Joseph,
There are a lot more similarities than differences. The main difference is with the backhand block or counterhit.
We have a lesson on the Penhold grip that will help you to understand the relationship between the two grips. Penhold Techniques for Table Tennis

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…
Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:
✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
