The essentials of table tennis backhand and defense

The phrase "one minute on stage, ten years off stage" also applies to table tennis. Behind the infinite scenery of Malone, ZhangJike and Fan Zhendong are more than ten years of hard training. However, if you just want to get good results in a table tennis match, or if you want to beat the same level of golfers as soon as possible, is there any way to improve your actual combat ability quickly? The answer is: yes! Let's see how this article answers:

1. The attack begins with backhand practice.

Amateur step does not have professional conditions, emphasizing forehand will make you physically and mentally exhausted.

Practice backhand. Amateurs are almost always better at backhand than forehand (except for the first three boards). Amateur ball and professional ball are two different things, and the outstanding points are almost opposite. (professional forehand and amateur backhand; Professional emphasis on attack, amateur emphasis on defense; Professional short, amateur long ball to open the way; Professional advocates strengthen quality, and amateurs are best not to be given priority. )

1. Why is backhand attack so important?

Before the era of two kings and one horse, backhand attack was considered as an auxiliary technique and a feminine technique. In the field of table tennis, some people say that forehand wins the world.

From Wang Hao to now, ZhangJike and Malone's generation of men's table tennis are becoming the mainstream with the strength of backhand twisting, backhand tearing near Taiwan and loop balls on both sides of the forehand and backhand in the middle Taiwan.

If there is no first shot of backhand attack, the back will always be in a passive stalemate, so the national team has always regarded the advanced technology and tactics as an important symbol of inspecting players. The advanced symbol of skills and tactics is that there is no dead angle attack in the whole station and no weak edge attack and defense when leaving the station.

For amateurs, it is almost impossible to complete a continuous high-quality forehand attack because of the lack of footsteps, so the backhand attack is more important than the professional player.

2. Training steps of backhand attack

Starting from the flat gear, the main approach at this stage is the impact of the rising period and the recent high point period. The main training is to quickly find the landing point of the incoming ball and adapt to the appropriate hitting position of the backhand.

After mastering the flat gear skillfully, backhand hitting almost becomes a natural habit; In the next stage, you can try to play forward with friction in the late rising period or the high point period, that is, amateur quick tearing. If your reaction speed is fast enough, you can also tear it quickly in the early stage of rising. After mastering this technique, you can quickly take the initiative and serve your opponent's low-quality curveball.

After that, I practiced the continuous pull of the late high point, which is the main technique of backhand attack. The requirement of training is to try not to drop the ball. During the period when I don't drop the ball, I will experience the flat gear and the impact with friction in the rising period and the light pull (transition technology) in the falling period.

2. Practice defense and wipe the ball.

Practicing defense is the fastest way for amateurs to improve their actual combat performance, no one!

The defense mentioned here refers to the defense near Taiwan Province (upshift). Find a golfer who wants to practice attacking. If we practice together, his progress will definitely not be as fast as yours!

Scrubbing the ball is a necessary skill for amateurs. An amateur can't rub the ball just as a professional can't attack the ball forehand. Rubbing the ball is a compulsory course for amateurs and needs hard practice. Slow backspin speed can make amateurs see the ball clearly, increase strength and rotation, and create trouble for opponents' attack.

The comprehensive level of amateurs depends largely on the quality of defense.

1. Okay. What's the defense?

Good defense is to make full use of strength, change the system, give priority to strength, and gradually grasp the initiative through the change of landing point and rhythm. According to the rhythm and the opponent's position, you should choose to increase or decrease the force by force, borrow money or add rotation.

2. The specific analysis of defense

Borrowing can be divided into high-point borrowing card position and rising point borrowing block. After skilled in technology, you can add and subtract force, stick lightly, cut and squeeze under friction and push on the basis of borrowing power.

After the peak period, borrowing is delicious. What is needed at this time is to borrow and eat easily, that is, to go higher. Therefore, when borrowing, it is usually hand-turned, that is, reverse tape or encirclement. These techniques require great relaxation and feel, and almost belong to the category of attack and active defense.

3. The most basic defense

Straight push block and horizontal backhand block are the most basic defensive techniques.

Blocking needs to stand close to the table, and the hand is the best defense in the table. The lower the hand, the better. Amateur loop ball is generally weak in strength, slow in speed and strong in rotation, which leads to a short rising period. If the defensive platform is a little farther away, it may have passed the rising period and it is impossible to borrow it easily.

Don't think about the defense of the old baby for amateurs ~

The advantage of rising defense is that you are required to stare at the ball accurately, find it quickly and predict the line accurately. These are the keys to doing a good job in defense and preparing for practicing attack in the future.

4. Specific action essentials

Hands should not be stiff, wrists should be fixed as much as possible after fine-tuning their shapes, and they should not shake.

The body, forearms and arms are relaxed, and they are only nervous when touching the ball.

5. Precautions for practicing defense

Let your opponent pull comfortably and continuously, the higher the quality, the better (on the premise of stability), which requires that your return ball must be stable and the arc should be as low as possible. When you practice, you will know what to think and what to guard against. Do not guard. You can buckle carefully when practicing, and you can play it slowly and steadily in actual combat.

6. Try to avoid unnecessary actions.

Many people will add some lateral friction to make the loop turn sideways when practicing defense; Or add some "cut" and "push" actions, which looks fancy.

But in fact, when it comes to the game, as soon as the opponent attacks, your hands will be stiff, and you won't have a chance to do unnecessary actions. Only blocking is a subconscious defense, and if you don't have time to react, you will subconsciously shoot. If you don't practice this at ordinary times, you will basically rely on it.
