ARE YOU STANDING TOO CLOSE TO TABLE TENNIS
This is a bit of a follow-up of all the recent blogs today in this article the discussion will be all about are you standing too close or too far to the table tennis. So many beginners are having issues that they stand too close to the table. We will explore the reason behind this.
CAN YOU TOUCH THE TABLE
When you are in your most typical way in a ready position, you can reach out and touch the table with your free hand.
Some players even reach out and are able to touch the table before every point as their regular habit to check if they are having a good distance from their table or not.
CAN YOU TOUCH TOO MUCH OF THE TABLE
Most of the new learners and also the intermediate players are not able to stand far from the table and also not able to touch it. Instead of that they are standing so close to their table that they can also touch most of their own half from the table.
A CORRECT STANCE IS KEY
If you are currently standing in the right position and you take half a step back there and you are standing remain upright, you will feel that you are too far from the table. You will then end up moving your feet back in again.
But if you are currently standing upright and you take half a step back and then you start leaning back there your head is going to be basically in the same place. Also, after that you will feel comfortable there. Despite that your feet will come further back, and it will enable you then to play much better table tennis as you want to play. Hopefully this explains exactly what you need.
