Many players asked me where to buy the training tools (ball holder and the string) after reading my article “How to train table tennis alone at home”. This trainer, robot, ball holder will help you improve quickly the timing, the acceleration at home (without any partner, coach). You only need a table, these cheap tools, and practice.

Training Kit For the Back

This training tool can be found in any store of “Body Build”. It’s a huge string to practice the physical force of the back and the legs.

Until now, I can’t find a similar article on this training device. The closest one I’ve found on Amazon is the “[easyazon_link keywords=”Multi Grip Heavy Duty Trainer” locale=”US” tag=”ert06-20″]Multi Grip Heavy Duty Trainer[/easyazon_link]” (Check price)

Training String Device

This string is used to improve the power of the hip and forearm.

This tool is useful to improve the force of the forearm or the acceleration of the backhand strokes. Again, I can’t find the exact article on the internet. Maybe it’s the local product in China. I found a similar article on Amazon: [easyazon_link keywords=”Elastic Athletic Stretch String” locale=”US” tag=”ert06-20″]Elastic Athletic Stretch String[/easyazon_link] (Check price)

Review of Table Tennis Ball Holder Device

The ball holder is the main kit that you should buy to train alone at home. Using this tool, you can learn to impact the spin to the ball at the right moment (timing). Some players have feedbacked about using these tools:

“Good training kit, helps with timing and wrist action.”

There are several types of ball holder on the market that you can choose. The price varies from $13 to about $30. Here are some of them:

The first one is the cheapest [easyazon_link keywords=”Gracefulvara table tennis” locale=”US” tag=”ert06-20″]ball holder of Gracefulvara[/easyazon_link]. The prize is less than $20. You can find it here.

The second model is from Huieson (check price). The [easyazon_link keywords=”Huieson Professional Table Tennis” locale=”US” tag=”ert06-20″]Huieson model[/easyazon_link] is the best ball holder that I’ve found. Because you can plug this one to the dining table and practice alone. The holder is also flexible and long enough, so you can change the position of the ball (high or low). The Gracefulvara model is too short, and it holds not very strong. It can be detached off the table if you hit too hard. While the Huieson model has the slug that you can fix it tightly to the edge of a table.

The last one is the ball holder from LanFire (FREE Shipping). You can find it on Amazon here.
