Cleaning the house while sweeping with a broom kind of feels like TT-practice lol

[Windkanal]

i know the title sounds really bizarre but, the other day while taking my broom out to sweep the kitchen and stuff i noticed, there are quite some similarities with tabletennis form. i used to sweep with my arms, how most people clean. but when stand a little deeper and just hold the broom and generate the sweeping motion from hip rotation...

it takes so much less effort to sweep the kitchen lol.

take with that whatever you want. (besides gozo who prob. has some weird stupid philosophy quotes on swinging brooms, he let us all know about, without anytone asking. Gozo is prob. some broom sweeping enthusiast or something so just ignore that weirdo)

I am not laughing at this. It's just a fun topic that you relate sweeping to TT strokes.

When I worked at a fast food shop, I had to hand whip hundreds and hundreds of eggs a day. After a month of doing that, my pendulum serve became much tighter and spinnier. Causation or correlation?

Try working with a shovel using hands only and then using core&legs. Big difference. Table tennis teaches a lot, same as martial arts and other sports where kinetic chain is used.

technically speaking, table tennis racket can be of any form and shape, as long as it meets the wood spec for the blade, and put on ITTF approved racket covering.

So you can use your broom to play too!
