Table Tennis Forehand and Backhand Movement Essentials

The essentials of table tennis forehand and backhand movements are as follows:

Forehand Attack Standing position and preparatory movements: stand near the center-right of the table, left foot slightly in front, body diagonally facing the table, racket hand naturally relaxed in front of the abdomen, racket semi-transverse.Lead the racket slightly to the right side along the route of the incoming ball, about the same height as the table, the racket surface is about 80 degrees from the table, and the forearm is basically parallel to the table.

Swinging action: When the ball bounces off the table, the racket hand swings from the right side to the left front top, the forearm quickly closes with the wrist turning along the ball to do the arc swing, in the rising period of the ball in the middle of the upper part of the ball.The position of the ball is one forearm distance in front of the right side of the body.

Center of gravity shift: When hitting the ball, the center of gravity is shifted from the right foot to the left foot, and after hitting the ball, the center of gravity is quickly restored to prepare for the next stroke.

Backhand Attack

Position and preparation: approaching the table with the right foot slightly in front, the racket hand naturally bent in front of the abdomen to the left, the center of gravity inclined to the left foot.Lead the racket backward along the line of the incoming ball.

Swinging action: when the ball bounces up from the table, the racket hand accelerates the swing from the left back to the right front, the forearm is the main force, the wrist turns outward, the racket is tilted in front of the face, the center of gravity is shifted to the right foot, and the ball rises up to the middle and upper part of the rising period of the ball in front of the left and right chests.

Power skills: backhand "toggle ball" is the basic technology, need to pay attention to the combination of striking and friction and small arm skillful swing speed.The backhand "fast rip" technique requires keeping the racket surface parallel to the table and accelerating the friction on the basis of the pivot.

Grip Forehand Grip: Imagine the racket is flat on the ground, with the index finger clasped around the handle and the tiger's mouth pressed against the handle.When you are ready to hit the ball, turn sideways and lower your center of gravity, pull the racket to the point of impact, stomp your legs and turn your waist, finger the ball, and collect the racket after completing the stroke.

Backhand Grip: Hold the racket with the right hand like a chopper, and do the same with the left hand.The two feet of the hand should be close to the handle to increase stability.When you are ready to hit the ball, stand up the racket head, pull the racket to the hitting point, push the racket head forward, and dominate the ball with the left hand, with the same downward and backward wrists, and do not clip the racket.Collect the racket after finishing the stroke.
