The thumb and index finger are straight and closed, just to hold the front and back of the racket, respectively.

The unreasonableness of the backhand grip is that the proper upward movement of the thumb makes the shoulder of the racket handle not close to the tiger's mouth to leave some gaps, which will lead to the instability of the forehand shot, commonly known as the racket is a little shaky.

3. The unreasonableness of the forehand grip.

The sharp forehand grip is also known as the deep grip. When holding the above method, the thumb is appropriately moved down to hold the racket handle, and the index finger on the opposite side of the racket is appropriately moved upward, so that the racket is more stable when hitting the forehand and is more conducive to the overall force of the body.

5. Traditional shallow grip method: fingers are held upward, and the index finger and shoulder are patted to form a hollow, which is called a small embedded grip method, and the wrist is flexible, which is convenient for playing the ball in the table.

6. Traditional deep grip method: the fingers are held downward, and the distance between the thumb and index finger is very large, which is called the large embedded grip method, which is convenient for exerting force.

7. Shoot straight and horizontally.

Grip method: from the traditional middle finger against the racket, to the middle finger and ring finger against the racket, after the forehand defeat force and backhand horizontal force, the index finger is relatively relaxed, a little straighter.

Different grips are required to play different balls

To sum up, when playing table tennis, there is generally more than one way to grip the racket, and it is necessary to change the grip method according to different balls, which is more conducive to receiving and serving, and can better cope with various situations in some competitions.

The common grip methods of table tennis are divided into two categories: horizontal grip and straight grip, and the straight grip method is the most common in the middle clamp grip and the straight grip of the curved ball.

1. Straight grip method: Clamp grip method.

To grip the racket, place the second knuckle of your index finger and the knuckle of your thumb on both shoulders of the racket. The middle finger, ring finger, and little finger are naturally bent behind the racket, with the first knuckle of the middle finger on the back of the racket. This grip is suitable for fast attacks near the table.

2. Straight grip method: Straight board grip method of arc ball.

The thumb is firmly attached to the left side of the racket, the index finger is buckled to the handle, forming a circle, and the other three fingers are naturally bent against the middle of the racket, and the three fingers should be in contact with the racket and hold hard. This grip is suitable for playing curveballs.

3. Horizontal grip Horizontal shooting figure-eight grip.

The index finger is in front of the shot, the thumb is in the back of the beat, and the other three fingers hold the handle of the beat. This grip is also known as the figure-of-eight grip. When guarding the ball, the grip should be looser, and when attacking the ball, it should be tighter to facilitate the force.

When it's time to hit the ball with a forehand, move your index finger slightly upwards. When hitting the ball with a backhand, move your thumb slightly upwards to facilitate power and control.

Precautions for gripping the racket in table tennis

When playing table tennis, I always like to hold the table tennis racket very tightly, and the main reason is that I am afraid of throwing the racket out during the game. In fact, if the racket is held too close, if the body arm hits the ball at the wrong point when hitting the ball, the probability of error is very large, and holding the racket too close will cause stiffness of hand muscles, and the error rate will also increase when hitting the ball.

The looseness mentioned here is not the overall looseness, but the middle finger, ring finger and little finger should be relaxed during the stroke, and the three fingers should not be held in the racket when hitting the ball with the backhand, and the racket should be held lightly when hitting the ball with the forehand.

The key is the grip between the thumb and index finger, because the rest of the fingers do not need to be used hard when hitting the ball, so the thumb and index finger must grip the racket hard to avoid the racket falling out of the hand.

If this is the case, you can try to use only the thumb and index finger to hold the racket during the hitting process to practice pulling the ball with the forehand and backhand, and the remaining three fingers are naturally bent, so you don't need to lean on the handle of the racket, but you can't exert too much force to avoid the racket getting out of your hand.

Straight Grip The Straight Grip is characterized by flexibility, fast shots, fast and powerful forehand attack, and when attacking oblique and straight balls, the paddle surface does not change much, and it is difficult for opponents to judge. The backhand can be both pushed and smashed.

Chipping Ball Playing The thumb is bent close to the left side of the racket handle, press down firmly, and the other four fingers are naturally separated and supported behind the racket.

Fast-break style of play: Use the second knuckle of the index finger and the middle of the thumb to buckle the beat, and bend the three fingers to the upper end of the beat.

Horizontal grip method.

The horizontal grip method is characterized by the large power of the forehand and backhand attack, the small change in the grip when attacking the ball, and the easy force of the backhand attack and the easy to pull the arc circle; However, when hitting the ball alternately with the forehand and backhand, it is necessary to change the batting racket surface, and the amplitude of adjusting the racket shape when attacking obliquely and straight lines is large, which is easy to be seen by the opponent. It is not as flexible as a straight shot but has a large care surface, and the handling of the ball in the table is not as flexible as the straight shot, and the holding ability is high.

Note: 1) Regardless of the grip, the grip should not be too tight or too loose. Too tight will stiffen the wrist and affect the wrist movement when exerting force, while too loose will affect the power and accuracy of the shot.

2) The grip should not be too shallow. When holding straight, the pincer formed by the index finger and thumb should not be too large or too small, so as not to affect the flexibility of the wrist movement.

3) When changing the surface of the shot and adjusting the angle of the racket, it is necessary to make full use of the role of the fingers.

4) The grip method should not be changed frequently, otherwise it will affect the formation of the type and style of play, especially for beginners.
