Which shots should I focus on in my training

 It's clear from your videos that Alois and Jeff have master all the shots -- forehand and backhand blocks, topspins, loops, flips and chops. That's why you are world-class players. But for the club player, should we focus on the few shots we are strong at or try to master all the shots? In other words, is it better to master a few shots or be pretty good at all shots?

Hi Mark,

I think it is important to be proficient at a wide range of strokes.  Certainly, you need to be able to counterhit, block, topspin, topspin against backspin, push and even chop.

If you don’t have one of these there will be a big gap in your technique that your opponent will be able to exploit.
