Dear Sir,

What is Core of our body in table tennis? 

Why does it need to be low?

Hi Oscar,

The core of your body is usually referred to the stomach area.

If this is low then you have a lower centre of gravity which means that is it easier to remain balanced when moving around.

If you are up high and try to move it is easier to tip over.  If you are low you will find it easier to move and also easier to balance yourself.

Strawberry Flick

The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
