The basic movements of table tennis were as follows: 1. [First Incantation: The incantation cannot cover all situations. It only provides the key points. You have to rely on analogy to deal with the various changes in speed and rotation.] 2. Prepare for the match: The distance between your feet should be shoulder width and your heels should be slightly raised. Your knees should be bent and you should bend over but not raise your chest. The racket should be placed in front of your abdomen. Your eyes should be focused on the ball. Your body should be relaxed and ready to move. 3. Serve: Open your palm and throw the ball upwards. There are many ways to hit the ball after it falls. You can create up and down side spin by rubbing the ball surface. The length, weight, speed, and strength of the ball are different. 4. Receiving the ball: Use the preparation position to receive the ball. Return it according to the direction of rotation of the incoming ball. Push and block the topspin ball, rub the ball with the backspin ball. You can draw the long ball, hang the short ball, and actively compete for the attack. 5. Forehand attack: avoid lifting your elbow and relax your grip on the racket. Move your forearm forward and upward, slightly forward with your left foot and turn your body to the right, tilting the racket to hit the middle of the ball. 6. Backhand attack: Place your forearm on your abdomen and your arm close to your chest. Use your elbow as the axis to move your arm and wrist. Move your left foot back and turn your body left. Tilting the racket to hit the upper-middle part of the ball. 7. Pushing and blocking the ball: It is mostly used in the backhand direction. The action is similar to a backhand attack. The forearm forces forward and downward, tilting the racket to push and block the middle and upper part of the ball. 8. Rubbing the ball: The racket first slightly leaned back and then sent horizontally. It rubbed the middle and lower part of the ball forward, and the wrist cooperated with the forearm movement. Whether the ball turned or not depended on the wrist movement. 9. Chop: First judge the incoming ball and move, bend your legs and turn your body to lead the racket to send the ball, then lean up and rub the bottom of the ball, and make an arc motion forward and down. 10. Loop drive: swing the racket forward and rub the middle and upper part of the ball. The thinner the rub, the more the ball turns to form a loop. The rub surface is wide and the force is increased. 11. Return loop: Tilting the racket to cover the middle and upper part of the ball, adjust the center of the racket in time to relax, and move the racket from top to bottom when cutting, so that the position of the short intercept is in the middle. 12. Put the ball high: leave the table to shake the middle and lower part of the ball, send the ball forward with a high parabola, and hang the opponent's left and right corners far away. The higher the ball, the farther it is, and the more successful it is. 13. Kill the high ball: Don't be anxious when the ball bounces high. Move your position until the ball falls in the air above your forehead. Turn your arm around and press forward. You can also cut the middle of the ball diagonally. 14. Skateboard ball: The racket looks like it's hitting the ball to the right, but the wrist suddenly sends the ball to the left, and the left side of the ball is slanted to hit the ball hard to achieve the effect of diversion. 15. Short ball: When the opponent leaves the stage, it is suitable for short hanging. When it seems like a long ball, it is suitable for light delivery. The racket is flat to reduce the force and light pass the ball. The vertical board can also be used for light blocking. 16. Footwork: Footwork cannot be neglected in basketball practice. Before hitting the ball, you should move your feet first. The key is to move first before hitting. Footwork confusion will lead to failure of the technique.

The basic movements of table tennis can be divided into five types, namely, the forehand and the backhand. The basic movements of the forehand were as follows: 1. Short Throw: It is used to put the opponent's backspin or no-spin ball in front of the net and land in the front half of the opponent's table, making it difficult for the opponent to attack. It is more effective against the backspin ball near the net, but it is difficult for the long ball or the no-spin ball. 2. [Long Hack: Hack the opponent's backspin or no-spin ball behind the net. The ball will land on the back half of the opponent's table. It can give the opponent pressure. It has fast speed, long line, strong spin, low arc, and fierce shot. It works better with short swing.] 3. Pick and Play: Use a combination of impact and friction to touch the ball. The backspin ball touches the middle and lower part of the ball, and the friction is greater than the impact. The topspin ball touches the middle part of the ball, and the impact is greater than the friction. When hitting the ball, the forearm and wrist are forward and upward or slightly upward. The ball is picked up to produce a certain upspin and the speed is faster, hitting the opponent's weak point. 4. Forehand attack: Attacks the opponent's topspin or no-spin ball, causing the ball to produce strong topspin and speed, hitting the opponent's empty space or scoring directly. 5. Forehand Loop: Pulling up against the opponent's topspin or no-spin ball, causing the ball to produce an arc and topspin. The speed is slow and hits the opponent deep or on both sides. The basic movements of the backhand were as follows: 1. Put short: Use the backhand to place the opponent's backspin or no-spin ball in front of the net, landing in the front half of the opponent's table, forcing the opponent to make it difficult to attack. 2. Hack Long: Use the backhand to hack the opponent's backspin or no-spin ball behind the net, landing on the back half of the opponent's table to give the opponent pressure. 3. Backhand Pull: Pull up the opponent's topspin ball or no-spin ball, producing a certain topspin and faster speed, hitting the opponent's weak point. 4. Reverse Tear: It can be seen as a horizontal board backhand or a straight board backhand reverse fast belt, tearing the opponent's topspin ball or no-spin ball, producing a strong side spin and speed. The landing point is low, hitting the opponent's empty space or scoring directly. 5. Backhand Loop: Pulling up the opponent's topspin or spinless ball, causing the ball to produce an arc and topspin. The speed is slow and hits the opponent deep or on both sides. While watching the Olympics, you can also read the wonderful novels related to the Olympics!

Table tennis was mainly distinguished according to the tactical characteristics or tactical methods of the athletes. Before the 1960s, it was divided into two categories: offensive and defensive. After the 1970s, it was further specified. Different playstyles belonged to different types, and the distinction was based on technical characteristics, technical methods, and tools. The characteristics of the fast attack style were speed, speed, close range, initiative, and preemptive strikes. Penhold fast attack was a traditional China style of play. It had gone through different stages of development. The technical style had evolved from "fast, ruthless" to "fast, accurate, ruthless, change" and then "fast, accurate, ruthless, change, turn". The straight (horizontal) two-sided attack method is to stand close to the stage, attack quickly, attack fiercely, and have strong attack power of the forehand and backhand. The play method is active, and the attack is in front. It is necessary to master a variety of techniques of the forehand and backhand, such as quick speed, fast attack, and so on. Pen-hold, left push, right attack method, standing close to the stage, small movements, fast speed, flexible footwork, strong attack power. From a technical point of view, for beginners, in addition to the basic technical movements, they should pay attention to the adjustment of mentality and the accumulation of actual combat experience, including cultivating patience and perseverance, and participating in actual combat. When training offense or defending with a topspin, you must find the right spot to hit the ball. For serving, one had to master the relevant rules, such as throwing the ball vertically as much as possible, the ball must not spin, and the distance of throwing the ball must be no less than 16 centimeters.

The preliminary teaching of table tennis covered the following aspects: 1. * * Gripping Method **: - * * Penhold **: - * * Fast attack type **: When holding the racket, the thumb in front of the racket is close to the left side of the racket handle, and the index finger is clasped on the racket handle to form a small ring. After the racket, the three fingers naturally bend to support the middle of the racket. - * * Loop type **: It is roughly the same as the fast attack type, but the back fingers are naturally straight, and the first knuckle of the middle finger is placed on the middle of the back of the racket. - * * Chop Style **: Before the racquet, bend your thumb and press it against the left side of the racket handle. After the racquet, the other four fingers will naturally separate and support the back of the racquet. When chopping with the forehand, rotate your forearm to make the racket lean back. When chopping with the backhand, the four fingers behind the racquet will shake flexibly to make the racket handle face down. - * * Horizontal Racquet **: The middle finger, ring finger, and little finger naturally hold the racket handle. The thumb is on the front of the racket and lightly sticks to the middle finger. The index finger is naturally straight and diagonally placed on the back of the racket. The thumb and forefinger of a shallow grip were slightly attached to the racket, and the thumb and forefinger of a deep grip were tightly attached to the racket. 2. * * Basic posture of playing basketball **: Prepare for the action of slightly bending the knees of both legs, pulling the right leg back, standing with both feet slightly wider than shoulder width (the center of gravity of the right hand holding the racket is inclined to the right foot, and the left hand holding the racket is the opposite), holding the racket in front of the abdomen, relaxing the body and holding the racket tightly. 3. [Basic Steps]: - Single Step: With one foot as the axis, the other foot moves forward, backward, left, and right in different directions. The body's center of gravity falls on the moving foot. - * * Step **: With one foot on the ground, the other foot takes a big step in the direction of movement. After the foot is pushed off, it will follow half a step or a small step, and the body's center of gravity will shift to the step foot. - * * Parallel Step **: One foot takes half a step or a small step toward the other foot, and the other foot takes a step toward the ball after the parallel step falls to the ground. In addition, there were also important points in terms of strength: 1. * * Braking process **: When you swing the racket, you must have a process of braking from loosening to tightening. You can experience the instantaneous explosive force by practicing the sudden loosening to grasping the ball when you lose the ball, so that the swing has the feeling of catching the ball instantly and letting the power hit the ball. 2. * * Combined force **: To improve the quality of the ball, the swing must be combined with the incoming ball. In other words, the direction of the swing must collide with the direction of the ball. 3. * * Hit Point **: The rate of hitting the ball on the stage is higher during the high point period. In the later stage of the rise (during the rise), the strength can be used to make the return ball of higher quality. High-level athletes usually hit the ball during the rise period. 4. * * Force exerting part **: The force exerting part of the table tennis ball mainly depends on the forearm and wrist. The forearm plays an auxiliary role in guiding the racket and exerting force. It is very important for the forearm to suddenly retract. The wrist plays a decisive role in the force exerting part of the table tennis ball. 5. * * Wrist state **: The wrist should be relaxed to avoid stiffness. A relaxed wrist will vibrate quickly to enhance the hitting effect. High-level athletes will have a relaxed wrist when handling the ball, which will allow them to better rub, hit, and fine-tune the route. 6. * * racket tightness **: When the player can stabilize the movement, the forearm can exert good strength, and the wrist can be relaxed appropriately, the racket can be slightly loosened before exerting strength. The quality will be higher. While watching the Olympics, you can also read the wonderful novels related to the Olympics!

For children's table tennis teaching, the following aspects can be used as reference: ** 1. Selection of educational videos ** 1. ** Beginner Stage ** - The children could watch 50 episodes of Good Ping-Pong. This educational film had a strong lineup, with Xu Yinsheng, the former president of the International Table Tennis Federation, and Li Furong, the former deputy director of the General Administration of Sports, as technical advisors. Zhang Xiaopeng, China's first table tennis doctor, was the on-screen coach. It showed the history of table tennis, basic movements, mainstream styles, common footwork, classic tactics and other aspects in a panoramic manner, so that children could have a comprehensive understanding of table tennis. - The "Table Tennis Basics" series was also suitable for children's teaching, helping them lay a foundation in table tennis. - Also, from 0 to 11, you can choose the content of Guo Yan's table tennis lessons. 2. ** Advanced Stage ** - When the child had a certain foundation, they could watch the Gu Yunfeng teaching series of Sticka V table tennis, which would help the child further improve his table tennis skills. ** 2. Basic Skills Teaching ** 1. ** How to hold the racket ** - Penhold Racquet (Fast Attack): When holding the racket, the thumb in front of the racket is close to the left side of the racket handle, and the index finger clasps the racket handle to form a small ring. After the racket, the three fingers naturally bend to hold the middle of the racket. - Penhold Racquet (Loop Racquet): It is roughly the same as the fast-attack type, but the back fingers are naturally straight, and the first knuckle of the middle finger is placed on the middle of the back of the racket. - Penhold Rap (Cut Ball Style): Before the racquet, bend your thumb and press it against the left side of the racquet handle. After the racquet, the other four fingers will naturally support the back of the racquet. When chopping the ball with the forehand, the forearm will rotate backward to make the racket lean backward. When chopping the ball with the backhand, the four fingers behind the racket will shake flexibly to make the racket handle downward. - ** Horizontal Racquet **: The middle finger, ring finger, and little finger naturally hold the racket handle. The thumb is on the front of the racket and lightly sticks to the middle finger. The index finger is naturally straight and diagonally placed on the back of the racket. When the grip is shallow, the web between the thumb and forefinger is slightly close to the racket; when the grip is deep, the web between the thumb and forefinger is close to the racket. 2. ** Basic postures for playing basketball ** - When preparing for the action, bend your knees slightly, pull your right leg back, stand slightly wider than your shoulders (the center of gravity of the right hand is inclined to the right foot, and the left hand is the opposite), hold the racket in front of your abdomen, relax your body and hold the racket tightly. 3. ** Basic Steps ** - Single Step: With one foot as the axis, the other foot moves forward, backward, left, and right in different directions. The body's center of gravity falls on the moving foot. - ** Step **: With one foot on the ground, the other foot takes a big step in the direction of movement. After the foot is pushed off, it will follow half a step or a small step, and the body's center of gravity will shift to the step foot. - ** Parallel Step **: One foot takes half a step or a small step toward the other foot, and the other foot takes a step toward the ball after the parallel step falls to the ground. ** 3. Teaching of force exertion techniques ** 1. ** Braking process ** - When the child exerted strength, the swing should have a process of braking from loose to tight. For example, by practicing how to suddenly grab the ball with his hand and feel the instantaneous explosive force, he could hit the ball with the force when he swung the racket. 2. ** Problem of working together ** - The swing had to combine force with the incoming ball to produce mass. The flying direction of the ball and the direction of the swing had to form a joint force to meet the collision. 3. ** Hit Point ** - Children should be taught to find a good hitting point. The higher the chance of hitting the ball during the high point, the higher the quality of the ball. High-level athletes usually hit the ball during the rising phase. 4. ** Power Point ** - Inform the child that the strength of the table tennis ball mainly depends on the forearm and wrist, and the big arm plays an auxiliary role. It was very important for the forearm to suddenly retract and exert force, and the wrist played a decisive role in exerting force in table tennis. 5. ** Relax your wrist ** - Children should relax their wrists when playing. Many children had great strength but no quality because their wrists were too stiff. Relaxing the wrist would allow rapid vibration, which could increase the strength by 5 - 10 times. It could also better rub, hit, and change the route. 6. ** The beat is tight ** - After a long period of training, the child could stabilize his movements, exert strength in his forearm, and relax his wrist appropriately. He could loosen the racket slightly before exerting strength. While watching the Olympics, you can also read the wonderful novels related to the Olympics!

For table tennis beginners, the following are some basic points: ** 1. Basic Rules and Awareness ** 1. ** Understanding the basic rules ** - The table tennis match was played on a table with a net between the two players. The ball had to bounce back and forth on the table. The players had to hit the ball after it bounced up and before it hit the ground, hitting the ball to the opponent's table. If one side cannot hit the ball, return it out of bounds, or drop it into the net, the opponent gets a point. 2. ** Basic Awareness Cultivation ** - He had to develop the awareness of moving to the right position before hitting the ball. According to the direction, speed, and landing point of the ball, he quickly moved to the right position to hit the ball. ** 2. Basic Skills Learning ** 1. ** Batting Skills (Basic Skills)** - [Forehand attack: This is one of the most basic hitting skills.] The horizontal racket user had to master the correct movements, including turning the waist, leading the racket, hitting the ball, and swinging the racket. He had to learn to control the direction, strength, and speed of the ball. - Backhand Attack: Similar to the Forehand Attack, you should pay attention to the standard of the movement. You should be able to hit the ball effectively in the backhand position to improve the stability and aggressiveness of the shot. 2. ** Footwork and movement techniques ** - [Small Steps]: Adjusts the body's center of gravity and position, allowing the body to be ready to move at any time. - ** Single Step **: Used for short distance movement. For example, when the ball is close to the body, you can quickly adjust the position of the ball with a single step. - ** Parallel Step **: It is often used for large movements in the left and right directions. When moving, both feet will move in the same direction to maintain balance. - ** Step **: When the ball is far away, take a big step forward, backward, or to the side with one foot to hit the ball. After hitting the ball, you must return in time. - ** Cross Step **: Mainly used for large movements in the side position, such as when hitting the ball from the backhand position to the forehand position. 3. ** Serve ** - One had to learn a variety of serving methods, such as serving sideways and serving with the backhand. The changes in the serve's rotation were also very important, such as backspin, topspin, side spin, and running ball. For example, a backspin ball could cause the ball to sink on the opponent's table, making it easier for the opponent to return the ball to the net; a topspin ball would make the ball feel like it was rushing forward, making it easier for the opponent to return the ball out of bounds. 4. ** Defend ** - Ask your teammates to carry out targeted practice, let your teammates use the same offensive means to attack continuously, and you continue to defend yourself. Experience the key feelings of defense, such as controlling the landing point of the ball, controlling the speed of the ball, etc., and try to make the ball return to the position on the opponent's table that is not easy to attack. ** 3. Training methods and mental adjustment ** 1. ** Training Method ** - ** Wall practice **: This is a good way to practice your hand feel. By hitting the ball against the wall, you can get familiar with the ball and improve your control of the ball. - ** Dual training **: Practice with your partner. You can practice both backhand and backhand attacks, pulling, serving, and receiving. - ** Single movement practice **: Practice each basic movement separately, such as serving, receiving, sideways attack, backhand shot, etc., to practice each movement skillfully. 2. ** Mentality adjustment ** - He had to maintain patience and perseverance, because the improvement of table tennis skills required a lot of repetitive practice. At the same time, he must maintain a positive attitude, work hard to overcome difficulties in training and competition, maintain calmness, confidence, and concentration, and avoid affecting the hitting effect due to mental fluctuations.

The basic skills of table tennis beginners included many aspects. The first was the practice of basic postures. Correct postures were the foundation for mastering basic movements. For example, standing posture, footsteps, and other aspects needed to be maintained correctly. If a beginner could get the guidance of a table tennis coach or the help of a friend with standard movements to correct his movements, his level would improve faster. In terms of hitting skills, the one-point attack of the forehand was the first training subject that many people came into contact with. Although the movement was simple, it was very important. The two-point attack of the forehand required the movement of the feet on the basis of the one-point attack of the forehand. The backhand fixed-point/two-point attack and the forehand attack training method were basically the same. In addition, he also needed to master basic hitting techniques such as sideways attacks and backhand shots. Serve was also an important part of basic skills. One had to practice using different ways to serve the ball at different speeds, with different rotations, and with different landing points. Receiving the ball was also crucial. It required accurate judgment, quick reaction, and reasonable control of strength to return the ball to the opponent's uncomfortable place. As for the pace, you should pay attention to avoid problems such as the center of gravity not leaning forward. Tilting forward (the left foot is in front of the right foot, the forefoot is exerted, and the body is tilted forward by about 45 degrees) helps to relax the balance when starting and standing. If the body is not tilted forward enough, it will cause problems such as slow movement and insufficient shooting distance. In addition, beginners need to master the correct grip, the wrong grip will affect the performance; they also need to master more skills such as rubbing the ball, picking, pulling the loop, etc.; practice with more friends can make the practice more close to the actual game; and pay attention to the control of the rhythm and power of the ball. If it was just amateur practice, the basics of attacking the ball with both hands, footwork, pulling the ball with both hands, and rubbing the ball needed to be mastered. It was also important to shape the movements. This was the cornerstone of stable performance. One could use people with solid basic skills to feed the ball, serve the ball, feed the ball (it was better to practice more balls), imagine the ball, and other methods to shape the movements. During the practice process, one technique should be the main focus, and at the same time, it should assist in the comprehensive practice of the techniques that one already knew. Finally, the various technical movements would be shaped. While watching the Olympics, you can also read the wonderful novels related to the Olympics!
