Balls of fury ex Macina

Updated: Jun 11, 2020

As some of you might already know I have created some drills for the Eleven VR ball machine.


First of all a warning. These drills have not been created with beginners in mind. They would even push most pro players. So warm up well and stretch a bit before taking a bite out of this tasty drill cookie.


At the moment I only have a version adapted to me, but you can easily increase the seconds per launch on the last tab in game to make the drills more manageable and get a taste of some good table tennis exercises.


And as always. Having a coach to help you use these exercises correctly can help you avoid injuries and reduce the amount of bad habits you can pick up by just trying to get the ball back without knowing the proper strokes. In my next video I will give you an introduction to the drills presented here, how to install them, how I use them and how you can adapt them a little bit.


I will leave the list of drills here as well as next to the json.


If you enjoy my drills feel free to buy me a drink. I do get quite thirsty after a session.
