Hi coach, 

I am working on staying lower with a slight forward lean stance during rally

Are there weight training exercises I can do to improve physically?

Thanks,

Hi Andy,

I think that skipping and squats are 2 good exercises that you can start with.

That forward position requires some strength and it is often also just a matter of getting used to being in that lower position.  The skipping will help you with the explosive movement from that position.

#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.
