Reaching - Move behind the ball Hitting to hard - Placements are more important Ball watching - Hitting shots and not moving. Expect that every ball will come back Tight grip - The grip must be loose so you can move ur wrist very flexibly. Mindless serving - we should think what we gonna serve so we can know where the return gonna possibly be. Pushing long balls - Play top spin on long balls instead of chopping or backspin. Predictable ball placement- we should not be predictable while we hit the ball. Try cross courts and be not predictable. Standing upright - we must bend low on knees. When we bend it adds energy rather standing upright.

You broke the whole secret. You didn't leave anything that shouldn't have been told. Bad news for coaches :))

not really, there is so much that coaching can entail, stroke devolopment, proper footwork, serve/serve return and sequencing to name a few. What he covered is extremely important but also very fundament.

Always good to have a buddy to throw balls,correct you stuff in the moment without any bias,teach you new techniques,teach you their secret ti their succes and many more,a tt coach can't be beat.think about it when im training im not thinking about doing things right but a coach can tell you and you csn correct it immediatly

One of my biggest mistakes is not watching the ball too close when it is coming towards me. I use my peripheral vision a lot which makes me loose around 20-30% of the points. It is a really bad habit which I am trying to fix. Thanks for the video!

I had training yesterday, near the end of the training I started to pay more attention to the ball by actually looking at it and it immediately made a difference!

Thanks a lot Tom, I am guilty of nearly all those bad habits...I've blamed recent defeats on my racket, but deep down I knew it was bad and lazy habits that defeated me. I have a lot of work to do, thanks for sharing!

Thank you coach ❤ 1. Reaching 0:34 2. Hitting too hard 1:28 3. Ball watching 2:33 4. Tight grip 3:22 5. Mindless serving 4:23 6. Pushing long balls 5:32 7. Predictable ball placement 6:23 8. Standing upright 7:24

Yes!!!! I get 8 out of 8!!!!!

I never really thought too much about ball placement because what I was doing seemed to work well. That was until for the first time I played a left handed player and I found I kept setting him up for forehand topspin winning shots, it really threw me off and it was hard to kind of break my habits and change out of my normal groove

Thats funny. As an absolute noob player, my randomly placed balls seems to upset many trained players

Yep - all great tips - excellent work, Tom. I mention a lot of these when I'm coaching but serving and playing with purpose, and pushing long pushes are two things I don't teach enough so that was interesting for me. Cheers.

I used to play backspin only and assumed everyone would beat me if we ever got into a topspin rally. The only time I'd break that rule was if I thought I could hit a winner. Nowadays I fear topspin rallies much less and incorporate a lot of loops into my game, but I think something that is left over from my previous style is that I put everything into my attacking shots. I'll try reducing the power and see what happens.

I wouldn't say I've mastered the reduced power topspin yet but I've incorporated it for awkward balls that I can't play a full power loop against because I'm out of position. It works differently against different opponents. Sometimes I get a purely defensive block return which is a great opportunity to play a finishing shot because it's harder for them to control the height. Other times it leads to a topspin rally and I either need to just hold my nerve and place the ball well or play a backspin shot placed where they can't loop it. Overall I'd say learning this has improved my game, although it hasn't necessarily been reflected in my results as I feel there's a learning curve.

Tom has a video on how to return services. Same concepts can be pulled into rallies as well. Solid video 🤌🏼

Best table tennis tips video... Ive been playing tt from last 3 months and I've made almost all the mistakes mentioned here ... Thankfully I have overcome few of them and am progressing everyday ... Hopefully I'll be able to correct all of them soon

fantastic video; spot on in sooo many ways as just started playing again..& yes, im guilty of several of those bad habits..now pointed out so clearly, i can set about eliminating them...SUPERB..

Thank you for this. Excellent video! Just subbed.

Now how much more spot-on is a tutorial video ever going to get?! Great concrete tips dealing with cause and not consequence of playing bad. Kudos!

Everybody makes mistakes but most of them didn't knows where are they making the mistake. you are like a teacher who is teaching us about our mistakes and correcting them . Thanks alot ❤️

Good video, good advice, thanks.

Excellent, thank you.

Excellent video with good tips! As a beginner, I probably make all the mistakes, but I've already been able to successfully improve on the topic of "Standing upright". I think if you focus on certain habits instead of "just playing" you will progress much faster.

Thanks for the wonderful information and instructions . Excellent Video.

Thank you very much for all these advice I indeed am guilty of some of these mistakes Will try to improve on them Cheers

Morning! its 6am here in sydney! really enjoyed your video, hope to put it to good use later this am, thanks, Denise

Nice explanation. Very helpful.

You are an excellent coach. Thanks for the tips👍

Well done. Most informative.

Thanks buddy that's really helpful 👌

Thank you for a very helpful video.

Very good video. The advices can be applied in practice. My bad habits are n. 1 and 8. Foodwork should be improved. Greetings from Italy

I want the same setup for practicing...great video. Thanks

I’ve been Gripping too hard and mindlessly serving for 20+ years! Thank you!!!😂

Thanks for this reminders. It helps a lot.

Great content!! Thank you

Very informative. I do have atleast 3 bad habits which you have mentioned. I will try to correct it to get to next level. Thanks

Great tutorial! Thank you so much.

Excelent!! Once again, thanks Tom :D

Great video Tom 👍definitely grip to tight, also having bad grip.

The best video!! A must watch for everyone! Great observation!!

You nailed it sir. Thank you so much for this absolutely fantastic video.

Thank you, nice video. : )

Thanks sir for your this video all this bad habits I do in my practice and my matches thank you sir

Very helpful!

All very good points, thank you so much.

Thanks for this ❤

Great video - sad that I have to say that - you just pointed out a lot of things I still need to work on. Of the 8, I still need to really work on 5 of them. I'm pretty good at varying ball placement. I start low but soon I am pretty upright again (so still working on that). I vary serves (and try to think about them) but I tend to give tail-tail signs of where I'm going to serve (very bad!). I don't try to kill a lot of shots but I'm better at a kill if I do it with a little less force (and therefore more control). So, yes, it was a timely and great video! Thank you!

One of the best vedios I came across on TT

On point no.5 on mindless serving: just to add on that on top of thinking through what serve we will execute, it is generally useful too (esp. at amateur level) to observe the position and focus of our opponent, so we can serve a type or to a position of his/her weak part at that point in time. But yes, the more advanced our opponent is, the less effective is this approach.

@Ilicet

Жыл бұрын

I like to duplicate serves if the opponent can't return it, or they hit it into the net, watch to see if they think they have figured out how to return it properly, and then switch the serve up so they still can't return it. This usually deflates their confidence which makes it easier to win. I.E. my main serve is a back spin corkscrew to the right, if they figure it out I switch to a top spin to the left.

@@Ilicet 4 weeks ago I played against a player who had trouble with my backspin, I noticed it and stopped using it because I felt bad, my coach then said to me that I should keep on using it so ended up using it anyway (still lost the game sadly). Did feel better about using it because he had a serve that destroyed me, so we traded points for a while depending on who served.

I didn't know even I have many of these bad habits. Thanks to Tom Lodziak.

Great observations, and a nice ball-spitting machine too, never seen this before...

I have all those bad habits at times. Thanks for pointing them out!!!

Very interesting the way you teach. Thank you very much.

Great tips, thank you !1

I did enjoy your video thanks 👍

I'm a winner. At least half if bad habits, but trying to improve. Great video!

Thank you so much Tom! I predicte every of this bad habits 😉

Fantastic tips . Really helped me in my game

Thank you so much❤❤❤

I learned the very basics from my coach ages ago, when I took coaching for hardly half a year. I got back into the game more than 8 years later with hardly any attacking power but it felt like recieving and serving were two things i could get decently right. Watching this confirmed that my coach did indeed teach me well, cus i only make one mistake mentioned: and that is pushing

Great to see this. You revealed.

thanks for this video it was so helpful

Thank you coach for your tips.

Zo goed en duidelijk weer gegeven. Als trainster van 50 plussers, wijs ik hen ook elke keer op deze 10 punten. Dit zijn echt de belangrijkste basis punten, om goed tafeltennissen te leren.
