My forehand is exceptional but my main weak point is my backhand.  I know most of the strokes which are played from the backhand but I don't use them even though i try to.This is why I am not consistent in my performance.  So,I will like to get a few tips so that I can improve my backhand and use it more frequently.

Hi Sarthak,

It is good that you are able to play the backhand strokes.

Now think about your position at the table. Often when you are forehand rented you will stand with your body facing your forehand side.  Try to stand more straight to the table and see if this helps.

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.
