Developing your badminton skills with no resources

Find a practice partner who is at your level or slightly better

One of the best ways to improve your badminton skills is to play a lot on the badminton court. Even if this type of training is unorganized, lots of evidence exists that suggests that unstructured training has been a key component for many top badminton players.

Watch lots of badminton training videos

There are thousands of instructional badminton videos online. Start by focusing on just 2-3 areas of your game.

If you are a newbie, watch videos that will teach you the correct badminton grip, the most important strokes, and footwork for beginners.

It is hopefully no surprise that an effective warm-up is one of the best things you can do to avoid getting injured on the court.
A thorough warm-up gets your muscles warm – your muscles work best at temperatures of around 40-degree celsius. But a good warm-up also increases blood flow and oxygen to your muscles.
In addition, a proper warm-up will increase the speed of your nerve impulses, which makes you act and react faster. But warming up will also increase the range of motion at your joints, which reduces the risk of tearing muscles and ligaments.

Mental health badminton

Mental training can become your secret weapon both on- and off the badminton court.

We’ve all seen it many times on TV and in live badminton matches: certain players crack at some point in a match. Typically when the going gets tough. Or if things aren’t going according to plan.

Other badminton players remain composed. They are in check regardless of the situation, the quality of their game, or, for that matter, the theatrics of their opponent.

The mental aspect of badminton is an extremely important component. Luckily, like any other muscle, our brain muscle (mindset) can be trained to perform better in different circumstances. 

Several well-known players regularly struggled with the mental part of the game.  Some of them improved their performance mentality by hiring a mental trainer. Viktor Axelsen, for instance, hired a well-known Danish mental trainer and coach B. S. Christiansen.  The collaboration between the two has made a real difference for Axelsen.

This article intends to give you first-hand knowledge of what mental training is, and how you can approach it. We’ve talked to players, coaches, and psychologists to understand the approximate impact of receiving mental training.

Creating a strong mental attitude and aptitude is possible for anyone who decides to focus on the mental aspects of the sport. That’s the good news. Because it means anyone can improve their mental attitude by focusing on mental training.
