Weight loss, HIIT, and table tennis

Training

Erriza Shalahuddin Asked 9 years ago

Dear coach

Have you ever heard the term "high intensity interval training" or hiit? I'm kinda having a small weight problem and I found in internet that hiit is quite a good option for weight loss. Do you have any idea on performing hiit related to table tennis? Like footwork drill and shadow practice?

Oh by the way, there's no training facility nor pingpong table around, so I must practice alone without table.

Thank you :)

Hi Erriza,

You could do this using shadow play. Do a few seconds of playing the stroke quickly then have a rest. This is a simple adaptation of the High intensity training.

#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.
