Another great video. Here's another fundamental mistake in my opinion...Posture. I played badminton for 50 yrs and still am whacking the shuttles. Perhaps do a video on the importance of posture for beginners and even intermediate players... That is if you agree with me.

The concepts and values here apply 1000% to all other fields. As a professional musician, I spent many of my early years feeling the “suck” and doubling down on the fundamentals to improve my music game. As for badminton, it took me a while to find some friends at the badminton gym who wanted to drill instead of play. Now I have a small group of partners who look forward to our drills. And you can tell it’s slowly causing some others to be a little jealous-you can tell that they would like to drill as well. 😃

Hey there, thanx for this video. You really hit the nail on the head! I can clearly see myself in some of those mistakes. One thing that is ever so important to mention: Getting the basics right and moving from there gets you much further than practicing some fancy shots you never get to use anyways b/c you lack the aforementioned.

@BadmintonInsight

Жыл бұрын

Your welcome Christian! That is definitely the case yeah 😀

Watching my own games over the pros really helped me for your point 2. By comparing their techniques to mine I discovered what I had to unlearn and relearn in my weakest shots.. and its hard to break the decade old habits. I would say with only average club time (4-5hours per week) you can only improve few areas during the season so it is best to focus on them consistently. My biggest mistakes and the most time consuming ones was to play only matches during free time instead of doing some drills. Focusing on winning instead of LEARNING is an universal flaw, in badminton this learning is however still an enjoyable process. For a long time I did not progressed, not bc I couldn't learn, but bc I was distracted from my long term goal and once I realized that things changed quickly. (improving faster than my mates that they took notice).

These tips came at such a good time! I'm joining a tournament on Oct. 22nd and preparing to try out for my university in May 2023, so I'll make sure to take note of these! Badminton Insight never fails to deliver. P.S. the cardboard Jenny cutout caught me off guard 😂😂😂

Thank you! Really needed a reminder to identify the things that make up most of the points. And to play less games, practice more :D

Ah thank you so much! That’s great to hear 😀 Which are your favourite videos?

Great advice! My serve is one of my strengths. I'm constantly practicing. If I don't it will become average. Serves help set-up winning rallies. When I was a beginner, coach encouraged us to play additional sports (soccer; track, or cross country running). Why? For conditioning, team work, communication, & to take a break from badminton. He probably knew none of us had enough natural talent to make the national badminton team. He was correct! 😏 As a singles player, who also ran track, it definitely helped with my endurance on the court. Badminton training was still the hardest. Now that I play MD & XD at social clubs it is so much fun to play 2 against 1 when my partners' strings snap or they run off court. They mistakenly think I'm tired. Let's just say the longer the rally, the more of an advantage I get (our skills are equal).

Thank you for the Video Coach Greg and Coach Jen. I always struggle on closing out games when me and my partner are ahead and yes the real reason why we play is because it is fun playing Badminton :)

The first mistake I think can get so much more complicated. It's not just moving forward when people are forced to hit the shuttle from an awkward angle, but also about how players need to know how to position themselves according to the situation in general. For example, where to stand when the netshot was very tight or when it was not. It's certainly not something that can be squeezed into a 10 min video, but I feel like the first mistake should be less about 'not moving forward' and more about 'positioning appropriately according to how well the last shot was played'. I feel like once players understand this concept it's like an 'aha' moment and even if they don't have a 1 hour video to explain it to them, they will pay more attention to the positioning of the pro players when they watch them. I think this is a good video, but I'm also worried that some players could oversimplify things like how this video presents the first mistake. Afterall, many coaches still make new players train by making them move to all 4 corners and the players are expected to return to the base after every single shot, but In a game this is not really how people play badminton.

Hi Greg and Jenny! I really need your advice. I bought a new racket three days ago and its string tension was 31. I used to play with rackets having tension around 23-25. So, on first day of playing with new racket, I was feeling good, although I had to hit the shuttle a little harder, I had more control. Second day, I wake up and my shoulder was aching, but I played anyway and on third day(today) pain is a bit less but its there. Also I'm getting tired earlier. Do I need to lower the tension or my shoulder will adapt eventually? Can the racket be an issue? Please help me!

@Optiblue

Жыл бұрын

It will adapt eventually, but just ease into it (aka raise the tensions 1-2lbs at a time). You went 8lbs higher overnight! At higher tensions you're going to be swinging harder and faster, thus putting more strain on your shoulder. If it's painful, I suggest resting and just get it restrung to your settings.

@BadmintonInsight

Жыл бұрын

Yes as Optiblue said, this is a big difference! Try reducing your tension back to 25lbs and increase it slowly if you like. For a lot of players we wouldn’t recommend increasing it any higher than 26lbs until you have improved your technique as often it can lead to pain as you’re describing!
