Table tennis meets fitness
THREE WAYS TO GET MOVING.
Play at the Table
Use the bounce of the ball to time your stroke and recover for the next shot.
Shadow the Stroke
Practice your forehand, backhand, and footwork in a clear space, using music to keep time.
Build a Routine
Combine familiar moves into a short exercise sequence and repeat it at your own pace.

A FAMILY GAME BECAME A FITNESS METHOD.
Jules grew up in a Hungarian table tennis family. His father, Gyula Apatini, wanted to see the sport become as popular in the United States as it was in Hungary. Jules carried that idea forward with Aerobic Ping Pong and his Aerobic Progressive Exercises.
