Training
Hi, I am Toti, a boy from Italy, 28 years old. I have a ping pong table tennis at my home . Due to the covid 19 I can't join a TT club. So, I am training 4 hours per day every day. I became an advanced player, having a professional ping pong table at my home. Is it right 4 hours per day? How many hours per day should I train to reach a professional level? What type of training should I do? Thanks.
Hi Toti,
If you re able to train for 4 hours a day that is a lot. I think the most important thing in this situation is to keep the training interesting and relevant.
Think about always working on something specific that you are wanting to improve. Then focus on this skill by thinking about how you can improve it from just the stroke to then being able to incorporate it into a game situation.
When you are allowed to go back to the club then work on playing a wide variety of players and style.
Playing forehand and backhand strokes individually in practice is an important step in your development but to use them effectively in a game situation you must be able to switch between them. This sounds like a simple step but it's something you must practice. Lesson 10 focuses on ensuring you can quickly switch between your backhand and forehand table tennis strokes.
