Points to look for:
- The player is standing over in his forehand court since he is practicing a diagonal forehand loop to forehand block drill, and his training partner has been consistently placing the ball near the left sideline of the table.
- The player is facing towards the direction the ball is coming from, with the tip of the racket pointing about a foot or so to the left of the current ball position, from the camera's point of view. This puts the player in a standard neutral position, where he is able to play a forehand or backhand with equal ease.
- The racket angle is slightly tilted to the player's left, since the player is expecting to play a forehand stroke. It would probably be better to have the racket edge pointing straight up and down, which would be equally suitable for forehand or backhand strokes.
- The player is watching his training partner play the ball, but he is not yet committing to any particular stroke.
