So, I wanted to try to create some sort of material to learn from and that sums up important parts of Quanshibao ( and maybe other ) coaching and teaching videos.
This is my first attempt, using Gemini and the transcript from the video.
I will try to keep on improving this approach.

The summary:
- Grip: Maintain a steady grip on the racket with your thumb on the rubber. Don't grip too tightly, and avoid wrist movement.
- Body Movement: Focus on using your body's center of gravity for power, not your wrist. Keep your center of gravity stable and move forward with your legs and hips to meet the ball.
- Footwork: Use footwork to adjust your position and reach the ball effectively. Don't rely solely on hand movement.
- Point of Contact: Aim to hit the ball just as it starts to rise after bouncing on the table.
- Stroke: Keep your wrist fixed and use a pushing motion with your forearm to control the ball. Don't swing or flick.
- Defense vs. Offense: Both offensive and defensive skills are important. A strong backhand defense allows you to return attacks and gain opportunities to counter.
- High vs. Low Balls: A lower ball is generally easier to defend than a high ball. A high ball requires more adjustment of your center of gravity.
- Focus: Maintain focus on the incoming ball throughout the defensive stroke.
- Practice: Regularly practice these techniques to improve your backhand defense.
