7 Steps to Quickly Improve Your Badminton Skills

Badminton is the most popular event in every Olympics. Many people will be inspired to learn badminton when watching the athletes swinging their rackets and sweating profusely during the game. If you want to play badminton well, you actually have to find the right method. You can't practice blindly. This will not only be ineffective, but will also form some bad habits that are difficult to correct. Here I will introduce to you the 7-step method to quickly improve badminton.

1. Badminton is 70% footwork and 30% technique. Footwork is more important than technique. Correct footwork is the foundation for all technical performance.

2. Only with relaxed, fast and standardized steps can you move fast, easily and with less effort.

3. In many cases in badminton, it is unavoidable to be in a passive situation, that is, the ball has passed your body. This often happens, including in professional selection. At this time, only if your footwork moves faster than the ball can you catch up with the ball and get rid of the passive situation.

4. If you want to take the initiative in every shot, you can only keep the hitting point in the most comfortable position in front of your body with every shot. You must start and move quickly so that you arrive before the ball.

2. Some common problems in amateur players’ footwork

1. Lack of understanding and low level of attention to thought.

Every time they go to the court, most of the amateur players practice their skills hard, such as high lobs and push-and-rub shots. . . They practiced all of them, but few of them were practicing any specific footwork. I always thought that masters defeated their opponents by using tricks. In fact, a master doesn't defeat his opponent with his techniques, but rather with his footwork.

2. There is a lack of an atmosphere specifically for practicing footwork.

In the gym, apart from the younger brothers and sisters from the sports school practicing special footwork, you basically don't see anyone practicing footwork. They are either practicing techniques or participating in competitions. If an adult practices the cross-legged step in the gym, he looks like an alien.

3. Footwork practice must possess the excellent qualities of a Communist Party member, such as hard work and perseverance.

Three: Methods and ways to quickly improve your footwork

1. After playing ball every day, take 5-8 minutes to practice special footwork. Running at 4, 6 or 8 o'clock is fine. Run three sets each time, running 20-25 points in each set. Do it 2-3 times a week for three months, and your speed and physical fitness will reach results you never imagined. You will be pleasantly surprised.

2. Pay attention to gradual progress. Find an expert first, run the footwork correctly, slowly at first and then faster, and combine it with the swinging action of the hand. Run at a fixed point first. After becoming proficient, one person can direct the run to any point.
