What are the health benefits of playing badminton?

For me, playing badminton is my favorite leisure sport. Playing badminton in my free time is an enjoyment and a relaxation. Badminton has many benefits for our body and is very helpful for us to strengthen our body or lose weight. So what are the benefits of playing badminton? Here I summarize some of my own experiences.

Playing badminton is good for the eyes. If you insist on playing badminton for half an hour every day, then your eyes will need to look straight into the distance for at least half an hour, so this is a good relaxation for the eyes.

Badminton is good for the lungs and respiratory system. Playing badminton every day can strengthen the human lung function, increase lung capacity, and make the lung respiratory muscles more developed, increase the amount of ventilation each time, and enhance lung function.

Playing badminton helps to lose weight in the abdomen. Badminton is an aerobic exercise. Playing badminton every day can remove the thick fat outside the abdominal muscles. But you must persist, because abdominal fat is the easiest to rebound.

Playing badminton is good for the cervical spine. The correct badminton posture requires the back to be straight and relaxed. Long-term persistence will greatly improve the discomfort of the cervical spine and shoulders. Therefore, badminton is very suitable for computer users.

Playing badminton is good for the heart. Persisting in playing badminton will accelerate the body's blood circulation, so that the coronary artery has enough blood to supply the myocardium, thereby preventing some heart diseases. Badminton is a whole-body exercise that can promote venous blood to flow back to the heart and prevent blood clots from forming in the veins.

Detoxification and beauty. Comrades who play badminton for a long time are less fat, walk more easily and look younger. Sweating every day will expel toxins from your body, make your bowel movements smooth, make you sweat profusely, and excrete toxins from your body, which is very beneficial for preventing gout.

Treat cervical spondylosis (peripheral shoulder) disease. When playing badminton, you need to coordinate your hands and shoulders and hit the ball hard. You need to lift your head and move your shoulders. If you insist on playing for more than an hour every day, it will be difficult to form bone hyperplasia. Therefore, cervical spondylosis and periarthritis of the shoulder are difficult to occur.

Playing badminton is a relatively casual sport. Excluding competitions, it is a relatively slow sport that is very helpful for all parts of our body, including the eyes, arms, legs, lungs and heart breathing rate. Swinging the racket in the sun and hitting the ball through the opponent's boundary to score is a very sunny and refreshing thing.
