Table Tennis

Check the space around the table and clear any balls from the floor. Warm up your wrists, shoulders, and ankles before you start.

Start with gentle forehand rallies at a comfortable pace. Stay slightly crouched and move your feet to reach the ball.

Slow the rally pace and loosen your shoulders and wrists as you finish. Let your breathing settle, then check your workout duration.

Quick footwork and short rallies work your cardiovascular system and whole body. Use your legs for balance and your torso and arm to swing the paddle.

Step toward the ball instead of reaching with your arm alone. Watch for balls on the floor so you do not step on them and slip.

Exhale lightly as you hit and keep breathing between shots. Use breaks between points to settle your breathing.

Record the time spent playing table tennis. Do not enter scores, rally counts, or distance.
