How can i practice the endgames?

How can i practice the endgames? (Any other way than playing normal games)
You can set up a position of 7 men or less and then see how you would play that and then look at the exact table base solution.
Buy some books about endgames. For example "Dvoretsky’s Endgame Manual"
ChessTempo has a really good endgame trainer - it's essentially doing what @tpr describes except that it's all online, the computer does the setting up for you, it'll pick positions that are about the right level of difficulty for you, and it'll deliberately target your weaknesses to help you improve. You do need to cough up for one of the premium memberships to get significant numbers of problems per day, but it's fairly cheap.
For understanding "practical endgames" - ie all the complicated strategic stuff with significant numbers of pieces and pawns on the board - the St Louis Chess Club's Endgame Class videos on Youtube seem good. They typically involve analysing a few endgames from real games with some really good insight into the decision-making process.
Two types of endgame, first combining all pieces to mate king. Second pawn endgames. Practice both
