Basic station:
When pulling the ball, the body turns right (taking the right hand as an example) and the center of gravity is on the right foot. In the process of turning the waist, the upper arm, the right shoulder and the forearm are controlled by the waist. Use the wrist to control the board, and the board leans forward (the thumb presses the ball board hard, the index finger relaxes slightly, and the middle finger presses the ball board), and the board leans forward.
Hitting principle:
Take the right hand as an example when hitting the ball. First of all, you should exert your strength on your leg, kick your leg to the left, shift your body center of gravity from your right foot to your left foot, exchange your center of gravity, and face forward, consistent with the direction of hitting the ball. Then the waist exerts force to drive the big arm to rotate and transmit the force to the forearm. At the moment of hitting the ball, the forearm contracts and hits the ball hard. According to the principle of mechanics, the greater the angle between forearm and forearm, the better. This is to increase the radius. The larger the radius, the greater the initial velocity. At the moment of hitting the ball, the forearm suddenly contracts, making the radius smaller, gaining acceleration and accelerating speed and strength. When hitting the ball, the angle between the forearms should be changed according to the needs of coming and hitting the ball. Many athletes often only pay attention to recovering the forearm while pulling the ball forehand, ignoring turning the waist, controlling the strength of the arm with the waist, or paying attention to driving the arm with the strength of the waist and ignoring recovering the forearm. There is little or no change in the angle between the forearm and the arm.
To sum up, forehand pull should pay attention to four points:
1, be sure to pay attention to the exchange of the center of gravity, and the direction of the center of gravity should be consistent with the direction of hitting the ball.
2. Be sure to control the big arm with the waist and replace the arm with the waist. Pay attention to the coordination of your legs, waist, big arms, small arms and wrists when pulling the ball.
3. At the moment of hitting the ball, the forearm and wrist must contract quickly. The faster the forearm contracts, the greater the strength.
4. The hitting point must be kept in the right front of the body. The closer the hitting point is to the body, the easier it is to control the ball. It is worth noting that no matter what kind of pulling action, it must conform to its own physical conditions, as long as it does not affect the force of the action, there is no fixed action mode. In addition, there should be a certain distance between the ball board and the ball before hitting the ball. Try to hit the ball actively, don't let the ball hit your racket, or the distance between the ball and the racket is too small, which is easy to be resisted by the incoming ball and affects your strength.
Coach Wu Jingping's article —— The structure, methods and skills of forehand pull (II)
Structural changes of forehand racquet;
For most amateur table tennis fans in China, the straight board is in the majority. With the continuous development of table tennis technology, more and more people are playing straight and reverse glue. Because China's straight-board anti-glue play evolved from straight-board glue, the training methods and playing consciousness are all carried out according to the way and consciousness of straight-board glue.
Therefore, in the structure of the action, it is mainly based on approaching the stage, with small movements, fast hitting speed and fast swing speed as the guiding ideology. In the training method of forehand attack, there is little training of pulling the ball vigorously, and more emphasis is placed on the continuity between movements. For many amateur sports school trained fans, forehand pulling is even more difficult. This is the main reason that affects the forehand pull strength of China straight anti-glue athletes. In recent years, I have gradually realized this problem in the training of penhold players. Therefore, in the training of Marin and Wang Hao, the previous training methods were changed, with special emphasis on the training of forehand curling, and this problem was solved in the primary position of backhand training. Change the consciousness of training forehand pull from small movement, fast speed and good continuity to stretching, large running range, great strength and good continuity. Emphasis is placed on improving the continuity and lethality of pulling the ball on the basis of vigorously pulling the ball. In the usual footwork training, Marin and Wang Hao are required to increase the intensity of pulling the ball and practice the connection after pulling the ball with great strength.
In actual training, I mainly use the backhand half-high ball from the middle platform, asking Marin and Wang Hao to hit the ball with maximum strength, mainly to train the flexibility of pulling the ball, gradually let them get used to pulling the ball, master the skills of strength, coordinate the strength of legs, waist, arms, forearms and wrists, and mainly emphasize the transformation of waist and leg strength and body center of gravity. Secondly, the whole table is trained to pull the fist topspin, which mainly solves the continuity and footwork movement after pulling the fist. Through training, Ma Lin and Wang Hao's forehand racquet strength has been greatly improved. Judging from the effect of the competition, I think it is successful at this point, which is also a breakthrough in straight back glue training and breaks the old frame of straight back glue training mode. For most amateurs, in order to improve the lethality of forehand pull, it is necessary to change the consciousness of playing in the past and try to carry out some powerful pull training.
Methods and skills of forehand racquet;
Forehand pull is a very complicated technique, including near-table pull, middle-near-table pull, far-table pull, topspin pull, near-table fast belt pull, reverse loop pull, half-table pull and so on. No matter how complicated it is to pull the ball, one thing is the most important foundation, and that is footwork. The quality of footwork is directly related to the hit rate, strength and adjustment ability of forehand pull. If you want to practice forehand, you must first practice your footwork. At this point, it is the biggest difference between professional athletes and amateur athletes. Amateur athletes can't do a lot of high-intensity footwork training like professional athletes. But one thing is the same, and that is the skill of hitting the ball. As long as we can make the best use of the situation and give full play to the existing conditions, we will also receive certain results.
Below, I will introduce some practical training methods and skills to you:
1, pull the fixed point to spin down:
Pulling down the spinning ball is the most basic basic skill of straight back glue. In addition to the basic action essentials mentioned above, pay special attention to the wrist force method when pulling down the spinning ball. Rub the ball with your wrist at the moment of hitting the ball, and the hitting point is in the middle and upper part of the incoming ball. When rubbing the ball with your wrist, you should add a certain impact force according to the rotation strength of the incoming ball. It's what people often say: bump. When the spinning ball is pulled down, the weakly rotating incoming ball will hit the friction belt, and the impact force may be slightly greater than the friction force. A strong spinning incoming ball must be rubbed hard to hit the ball, and the rotation of the incoming ball can be offset by the force of pulling the ball. At the moment of hitting the ball, pay special attention to sending the ball forward when hitting the ball, and don't touch the ball hard. This is what we often call "eating the ball". Try to keep the ball on the board for a long time. If you often train the ball like this, you will feel better and better about the ball, and your awareness of the ball will become stronger and stronger, and you will gradually achieve ease of use. Training methods, in the absence of multiple balls, can be used to pull the ball to the opponent's backhand position to let the opponent rub the long ball to the sideways position, and then pull the ball hard. When pulling the ball, you must pay attention to pulling it with all your strength, regardless of whether the opponent can defend it in the next cricket match. The important thing is that you can't prevent it. If you train like this often, your pull will definitely improve. In the case of multiple balls, you can let the opponent serve the spinning ball to your side and pull the ball at a fixed point. Grasp the hitting time when pulling the ball, and it is best to hit the ball before the opponent jumps to the highest point or falls. The hitting time must be relatively fixed, so that it is easy to master the hitting rate of pulling the ball and adjust it. Send a little forward when out of bounds, and rub a little more when off the net. When there are quite a lot of backspin balls in the fixed-point pull, the impact point of the incoming ball will expand to the fixed-point pull of the whole table, so the difficulty of pulling the ball will increase and the level of pulling the ball will improve.
2. Pull the fixed-point topspin:
The difference between topspin and backspin is that the hitting point of topspin is above the incoming ball, and the friction ball is bigger than the impact ball, so it must be sent forward at the moment of hitting the ball. The training method is basically the same as grasping and pulling down the spin ball, but the rotation of the incoming ball is different, which is the top spin ball. Pull the cricket sideways after pushing the block, or when the opponent changes your forehand position, pull the cricket sideways and practice again and again. Under the condition of multi-ball training, the opponent can directly serve the topspin to your forehand and sideways to grab the fist, and the landing point can be from fixed point to non-fixed point, which gradually improves the difficulty of hitting the ball.
3. Practice backhand loop:
Backhand loop is an advanced technique, especially for amateur athletes. If you master this technology, you will be like a duck to water, and you will have the initiative in competition. Because ordinary amateur athletes pull the loop ball more times, you have mastered the technique of pulling the loop ball backwards, and you are at a higher level than your opponent. The main point of anti-pull loop ball is to exert one's own strength, try to use the opponent's rotation as little as possible, and use one's own strength to offset the opponent's ball rotation. Secondly, the friction ball must be thin when pulling back. To rub the upper part or even the top of the ball, we should not only use the rotating force from the other side, but also use our own force to rub the ball. The farther back, the higher the hit rate. The more afraid of the opponent's rotation touching the ball, the easier it is to eat the opponent's rotation. Training method: the opponent sends the spin ball to your backhand position, you rub the ball to the opponent's side position, the opponent pulls the loop ball to your backhand position, and you pull it sideways. Practice repeatedly like this. After basically mastering the law of loop ball, the reverse pull is extended to the whole station and non-fixed point reverse pull.
4. Close forehand fast loop ball:
This technology is very advanced in defense and difficult to master. It was gradually adopted in the late 1990s. Prior to this, people's forehand defense was flat, and the ball was blocked by the rotation of the opponent's incoming ball, so it was easy to make mistakes because of nervousness at the critical moment of the game. Even if there is no mistake, the past ball is not threatened, and it is easy to be attacked by opponents in succession. By the late 1990s, Chinese athletes had applied the anti-pulling technique to the defense near Taiwan Province, especially those who used the straight bar and anti-sticking technique, which accelerated the pace of attack and defense conversion and achieved good results. Marin is very prominent in the application of this technology. This technique requires athletes to judge the incoming ball very quickly and accurately, and requires very high feel of the ball in their hands, because many balls completely complete the technical action with the help of athletes' efforts when they lose their body center of gravity or are not in place. I think that although there are not many amateur athletes who can really master this technology at present, there are already some athletes with a certain level who can try it, and maybe you will have unexpected gains.
The skill of this technique mainly lies in mastering the hitting time and wrist strength. The hitting time should be as early as possible in the take-off period (rising period). When the footwork is really inappropriate, you can also hit the ball with a jump. When hitting the ball, the waist and wrist exert force and touch the top of the ball. When touching the ball, you should not only use the opponent's strength to make the ball spin, but also use your own strength to rub the ball as thin as possible, so that it is easy to get off the net when the ball is thick, and you must push the ball forward at the moment of rubbing the ball. The training method can be to rub the spin ball to the opponent's forehand position, let the opponent pull the loop ball to his forehand position, and then the forehand is close to the fast belt. This repeated practice will gradually master the basic method of hitting the ball, and then when the opponent's downward spin is more skilled, push the line to let the opponent pull the loop to his forehand position. In this way, you will gradually master the technique of forehand fast loop ball in defense. The key point of this technique is that the friction ball must be thin when hitting the ball, and you must take the initiative to bring the ball.
Coach Wu Jingping's article-Matters needing attention in forehand ball pulling (3)
Precautions for forehand pulling:
Amateurs should pay attention to the following points when practicing forehand pull:
1, forearm:
When pulling the ball forehand, be sure to take back the forearm. The angle between the big arm and the small arm must not be fixed, and the size of the swing arm should be determined according to the incoming ball. However, it should be noted that the retraction of the forearm must be controlled by the waist.
2, turn the waist:
Because table tennis moves in a circle, it is very important to control your hands with your waist when hitting the ball. When hitting the ball, the backswing of the racket is not done by holding the hand backwards, but by turning the waist. The waist is used to fix the big arm, and the speed of turning the waist is much faster than that of shaking hands. That is to say, before hitting the ball, the swing arm turns around first instead of holding hands first. However, many of our fans hold hands first and don't know how to turn their backs, so when hitting the ball, there will often be physical disharmony, which will lead to inattention or lack of effort.
3. Hit point:
The best position to hit the ball is in the right front of the body (such as the right hand). To maintain the best hitting posture, you must learn footwork well and keep your body center of gravity. The height of the center of gravity depends on the incoming ball. Marin's side-to-side blasting was a last resort. The opponent's ball is low and long, and it can't be recovered after being pulled, so it can only be played. Marin pulls the ball with a low center of gravity, but the hitting point is the highest point or the early stage of the ball. The hitting point of a large angle ball in forehand position should be determined according to its own footwork. Generally speaking, the ball is played in the middle and late stage.
4, the use of the wrist:
When pulling the ball, the wrist should be relatively fixed and not shake too much. At the moment of hitting the ball, put your middle finger on the ball board and rub the ball. In addition, the wrist also has the function of adjusting the hitting moment. For example, when you suddenly feel that the ball is spinning much more than you expected, you can adjust the strength of hitting the ball and rub the ball with your wrist. If it is not in place, stand up by yourself and be sure to adjust the hitting point with your waist and wrist. Especially in the game, many balls are not very regular, and the landing point of the incoming ball is also the most uncomfortable place for you. At this time, you need to adjust your wrist. The adjustment of your wrist mainly depends on your thumb and middle finger. Secondly, when pulling the ball, the shape control also depends on the wrist. Many straight players hang their wrists badly when pulling the ball forehand, which affects their strength. In general, the wrist and forearm are almost in a straight line, and the included angle between the handle of the ball board and the wrist is about 45 degrees.
5, eat the ball:
We look at the quality of an athlete's pull, mainly to see whether he eats the ball when he pulls it. Eating the ball means that the ball stays on the board for a long time instead of going out as soon as it touches the board. In order to eat the ball while pulling, you should take the initiative to rub the ball every time you play cricket, and try to play the borrowed ball as little as possible in normal training. The quality of pulling and eating the ball is not obvious in normal training, but it is very different in the competition. Many balls are pulled when you are not in place. You just need to rub the ball with your wrist to adjust it. You are used to actively pulling the ball, so you can control the adjustment of strength and hitting position in the game and pull a lot of difficult balls.
6. Grasp the difference between topspin and backspin:
There is not much difference in action. The difference is that the hitting point is in the middle and upper part of the ball when rushing down the rotating ball, and you can click and hit it according to the rotation of the incoming ball when exerting force; When catching the topspin, the hitting point is at the top of the ball, and the center of gravity moves forward when hitting the ball. Especially when the loop ball is pulled back, it is easy to pass when the friction is thin, and it is easy to make mistakes when the friction is thick or has a certain impact.
7, fine-tuning:
Many fans and friends have raised this question, and I think it is difficult to do this in the game. This first depends on your personal sense of the ball, that is, the feeling of the ball in your hand. Secondly, in the training, I constantly cultivate my understanding of the rotation of the ball, and clearly know what kind of rotation the ball I played in the past and what kind of rotation the ball the opponent returned. Only in this way can you hit the ball back by manual adjustment according to the different incoming balls, in the case that it is difficult to hit the ball normally, in the case that the incoming ball is very irregular, and in the case that it is difficult to hit back when the ball falls on the corner. So for amateur friends, the most important thing is to ponder the rotation of the ball. If you basically master this law, you will have the ability to fine-tune.
Forehand loop ball technique is one of the most basic and important techniques in table tennis. The three elements of a good loop ball are leg, waist and hand; Only by coordinating the three can we give full play to the greatest strength of the loop ball.
From the style of loop ball, it is mainly divided into European school and Asian school. When European players pull the loop ball, there are many impact components, so the ball is fast, powerful and low in arc in flight; When Asian players pull the loop ball, there are many friction components, so the ball has fast speed, strong rotation and low arc in the process of bouncing. With the development of loop ball technology, players from all countries are learning from each other, so there is no obvious difference in style, just using different skills according to different balls.
The basic technical movements of the loop ball are not difficult, but if you want to pull the loop ball well, you must study hard and practice hard, so that your skills can be greatly improved. How to master the basic loop ball technique? (Take right-handed players as an example)
First, the technical action decomposition
1. Prepare for action:
Before pulling the ball, the position must be reasonable. Generally speaking, the station is about 1.5m away from the edge of the table. In front of the left foot, behind the right foot, the distance between the two feet is slightly wider than the shoulder, the tip of the right foot is flush with the left foot socket, and the inside of the forefoot of both feet touches the ground. The legs are bent, including the chest, the center of gravity is lowered, and the angle between the body and the edge of the table is about 45 degrees.
2. Pull the ball:
When pulling the topspin, the right shoulder sinks slightly, while the right arm naturally relaxes and the side waist rotates to complete the racquet process. At this time, take the right foot as the axis and focus on the right leg. Then, push your right leg to the ground, rotate your waist horizontally and drive your right arm. Note that the right arm is still relaxed at this time. When the waist turns to be basically parallel to the edge of the table, the forearm is contracted to hit the ball. The center of gravity shifts from the right leg to the legs, and the shoulders are flat. When you hit the ball, you should find a good hitting time. The hitting time is divided into rising period and falling period. The rising period refers to the time when the incoming ball is about to reach the highest point, and the falling period refers to the time when the incoming ball just falls from the highest point. Generally speaking, when the incoming ball is located more than one foot in front of the right abdomen, it feels best to hit the ball and can send out strength. Pay attention to rubbing the ball when hitting the ball, mainly by pushing it forward. Immediately after hitting the ball, pay attention to the relaxation and reduction of the arm and forearm. The pictures related to this theme are as follows: There is a difference between pulling and rubbing about the hitting position. Players who mainly pull the ball usually hit the ball at point B or between point B and point C. For players who are mainly friction, the hitting position is generally point C.
The action essentials of pulling down the spinning ball are basically the same as those of pulling up the spinning ball. Only when the spin ball is pulled down, the right shoulder sinks lower, the hitting position is generally point B, and the direction of force is more upward.
footwork
When pulling the ball, you should always run according to the position of the incoming ball to adjust the best position of hitting the ball. When running, try to keep your center of gravity stable and don't shake your body.
Second, high hanging arc suppression coil and forward arc suppression coil
The high hanging loop is generally used to pull down the spinning ball. High-hanging arc coil has good rotation, but the arc is slightly higher and the speed is slower. The hitting position of high hanging loop ball is generally point B, even between point A and point B, depending on the rotation of the incoming ball. When lifting the arc ring, the right shoulder sinks lower and the force direction is more upward. First make an arc higher than the net, then push forward, and then make a forward arc. If you pull it hard, the ball will easily go out of bounds. The forward arc coil is fast and powerful, but it rotates less. Before the loop is pulled, the hitting position is generally between point C or point B and point C. The right shoulder sinks slightly and the direction of force is more forward. If the downward rotation of the incoming ball is strong, it is necessary to increase the range of waist rotation and the speed of forearm contraction to increase the friction on the ball.
Third, the table loop ball technology
The technique of loop ball in the table is more difficult. First of all, we should judge the position and height of the incoming ball, and determine the height of the racket according to the height of the incoming ball. Generally, the height of the hoop ball on the bench is higher, which is often equal to or even higher than the height of the desktop. The hitting position is usually point D, because the friction ball is very thin, so it is very difficult to deal with table tennis with strong backspin. For the backspin ball with poor turn, the loop ball in the table still poses a great threat to the opponent. For the loop ball on the bench, pay attention to the direction of force, then move forward and shorten the arc.
Four, rubber ball and loop ball
The performance of imported rubber is different from that of domestic rubber, which has certain influence on the style of loop ball.
Europeans pull the ball mostly because the rubber in Europe has poor viscosity, and the sponge is soft, but it has good elasticity. With imported rubber sleeve, after the ball touches the racket, the sponge is squeezed deeply, and the compressed stroke of the sponge is long, which reduces most of the rotation and strength of the incoming ball. Therefore, the method of pulling and hitting can control the incoming ball well. In addition, Europeans are tall and burly and explosive. This kind of pulling is not small. Asians pull the ball with greater friction, because the domestic rubber, such as the rubber of hurricane series, is very sticky, and the elasticity of the sponge is very real and great. When the ball hits the racket, the rubber has great resistance to the incoming ball, and the sponge is not compressed to a great extent, resulting in the board falling off quickly. Therefore, only with more friction and rotation can we pull out the high-quality loop ball. Therefore, the use of domestic rubber sleeves has higher technical requirements for pulling the ball. With the development of table tennis equipment, many new products have been produced in China, which have many advantages of both domestic and imported products. For many table tennis lovers, there are more choices.
Five, the common problems of pulling the ball
1. Center of gravity recoil:
Sitting back with the center of gravity naturally prevents the exertion of leg strength, moves the arm up, and reduces the speed, strength and rotation of pulling the ball.
2. Stiff arms:
Muscle stiffness in the process of leading hands greatly reduces the ability to control the ball and locks the strength. After hitting the ball, the muscles are stiff, so that the strength cannot be fully exerted and the speed is reduced.
3. Insufficient waist rotation:
Pulling the ball only with your arms will cause great losses in speed, strength and rotation.
4. Lift elbows and shoulders:
So that the legs, waist and hands can't be coordinated. When the power is transferred from the legs and waist to the hands, the energy is interrupted.
5. Slow pace:
Wait for the ball, so the hitting point is so low that all the strength of the whole body is not used on the ball.
Five important links of exerting strength when playing loop ball
Many amateur table tennis lovers are close friends? I've always wanted to improve the strength of that gripping loop ball. However, many friends also have a misunderstanding: they always think that a board will win or lose, but the more brute force, the higher the error rate, or occasionally they can play a few very violent balls, but overall the technology has regressed. Here, let's discuss several problems of pulling the loop ball together.
1. Push the ground
Many golfers are very clumsy in the process of pulling the ball. Some people don't lift their right heel when kicking the ground, but only think about kicking the ground with their right foot, but they ignore a very important place, that is, the purpose of kicking the ground. The main purpose of kicking the ground is to move your center of gravity. Generally speaking, after the right foot hits the ground, the center of gravity will shift to the left foot that supports the foot, and the center of gravity will also move forward to the left.
Twist the waist
Probably now that life is rich, many amateurs have big stomachs and round waists, so they can't see their waists. But if you want to pull out a high-quality curling ball, you must borrow the strength of your waist. Maybe practicing table tennis really has the effect of slimming and waist-thinning. Don't simply twist your waist during the waist twisting process. It's hard to flash to the waist if you encounter a big move. At this time, you must use the power of pedaling to twist your waist conveniently.
Swing arm
Here we mean the big arm. The amplitude of the swing arm varies according to the position of your racquet. For table tennis fans behind the racquet, the swing of the big arm is larger than that in front of the racquet. No matter how big the swing amplitude is, the swing direction of the big arm is generally at a fixed angle from the front to the top, generally parallel to the outside of the body. Don't lift your elbow when you swing, otherwise it will deform the action and lead to the ball being caught.
Close your forearms.
When the big arm swings parallel to the outside of the body, the forearm tightens forward quickly, but it should not be too tight when retracting the forearm. It should be retracted according to the inertia of the arm twisting on the ground. The stop position of the forearm is probably in front of the body, and the height is generally flush with the eyes. Don't shake your head, because after pulling a hoop ball, you should quickly resume your actions and continue the next hoop ball.
5. Wrist adduction
This technology is very demanding for players. Ordinary amateurs can pull out a high-loop ball through the above four steps, but the arc of the ball is generally longer. If you want to make the loop ball shorter, you must add wrist strength. You can refer to the forehand loop action of German player Bohr.
