Hi Bernard,

It is about how much training and also about the quality of the training that will make the real difference to your level of play.

So if you are training regularly for 10 hours a week on average that is about 500 hours a year which will take you about 20 years to reach your 10,000 hours.

#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.
