Hello greg jenny thank you for inspiring me to play badminton and all of your video help’s me a lot and I’m improving my badminton skills and you guys help a lot and I watch your video’s and you guys make me smile so thank you so much
Great information once again guys. I especially like the fact that you included some stretches. I hope that everyone looking at this video adds this to their routine if they don't do it.
Great video! Added it to my playlist so after every badminton session, I can refer to your video on the different cool down exercises! Thanks for the regular upload! The video was short and easy to understand!
Love how you guys can cover these (what I think) boring topics with some lightness and jokes. Props the your videography/editing skills and the thoughts that goes behind it!
Thank you so much ☺️ haha we also think they’re boring but very important so we want to make videos on them! Just trying to make them enjoyable for others 😅
YES ! I was hoping you'll do a video about recovery and stretching after a match or training ! So happy ! I can hear everything about stretching in my club : "it's useless !" , "Do it the day after" bla bla bla ... So now I have a video made by pros to prove that is a big deal ! ( just like warm up) Thanks Greg and Jenny ! Can wait to see you next sunday
Thanks Jenny and Greg for covering this important topic! As for an idea for another video, maybe you could tell more about the shuttlecocks themselves. What are the differences between them, which ones are worth buying and which ones aren't, and how important is it to use the right ones during practice?
Glad you liked the topic - not many others are interested judging by the current views compared to our other videos 😂 Interesting idea - we will add it to our list! For now we would say if possible practice with what you use in matches!
As usual very useful! Often times when I play group games I get into post-game socializing & ignore cool downs but you're right about how important this is for longevity! I use both foam roller & massage gun, they're excellent! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much for this. After my club nights I used to be very sore the next day and my knee start to make popping noises leading to knee pains. But, thanks to you guys I’m less sore and not having those knee pains anymore.
Aloha Greg and Jenny, awesome video. Commonly, I rarely see any players warm up before and cool down after playing. The result has been many injuries and falls suffered, some so bad it ended their playing altogether. Others limit their play to only a few games due to aches and limited muscle range. During training my professional coaches required warm up and cool down routines before coming on and stepping off the courts. I do so now out of habit. Little did I realize the wisdom of their training. Thanks for placing emphasis on this very important overlooked practice.
Spotted Greg! Another great video and your AV production is going from strength to strength as the weeks go on. I'm adding these exercises to your weight training and core exercise programmes which I purchased from your website. Thanks for a really enjoyable and well rounded set of training tools.
How shortly after a session/match should one do the stretching for cooling-down? Immediately afterwards or is 20 minutes after the session also still beneficial? Thanks a lot for the Insight!
Hello Greg and Jenny, I’m a new badminton player who just started learning the jump smash. I noticed that when you guys and other badminton players do the jump smash, your legs are folded in the air for awhile. Does the folding of legs come naturally or do I need to fold them while jumping? Sometimes I fold them too much and ended up not being able to hit the shuttle well. That is one question I have always had in mind, would appreciate if you can clarify, thank you!! Sorry for the irrelevant question to the video.
Hi Jasper! Yes it generally comes naturally during the jumping motion. Don't try to force this is it can often take your mind away from the other (more important) technical parts of the shot! Hope that helps 😊
@@BadmintonInsight Hi Thank you for the reply! Are there any steps in particular that I should take note of in order for my legs to bend naturally in the air? Thanks in advance 😊
I’m always looking out for the weekly releases, highlight of my Sunday :D. Can i make a video request though? I would love it if you guys can make a tutorial on how i can improve my drive game in doubles, the techniques of the drives and when to do them. I would love to be able to incorporate the drive game to my doubles matches. Much love guys! PS: greg at 2:31 😊
Thank you so much! And good spot 😆 Have you watched these two videos? ruclips.net/video/VICxkR6BijI/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/Z6mUYSPzDa4/видео.html
@@BadmintonInsight i have watched them, however i will watch it again! I just have trouble with when to take the shot and when would be a time to play the drive shots. I also would like to learn how people could return the shuttle so close to the top of the net when they play drive shots because i drives are never low enough and it makes it so easy for the opponents to smash the shuttle :D
lol Greg scared me, thanks for the tutorial and the information shared here! Never thought it was so important to cool down other then to relieve strain
Great video. I have started now to do stretching at the beginning and at the end and sometimes while waiting for my turn in court. Here is a tip for a video. Do you have easy tips to judge whether the shuttle is in or out.
Super Jenny, on the note "if cooling down properly, u still play badminton when u hundred years old" Spontaneous dialogue. Good one liked it .. way to go both👍✌
In relation to warms ups and cool downs this is fantastic, I would ask is there warm ups and cool downs for just standing up rather than laying on floors which generally are not as lovely and clean as your floors lol ! Thanks!
Yup agreed! I noticed most of these r done laying on the floor...whereby the places Id play, their floors are definitely as clean as ur floors in this video! Would definitely want warm ups and cool downs when standing, than laying down! :)
Great! What do you think about the "hands touch your toes" -stretch while standing? I think it could be very useful for unloading your lower back. Also I think there were some opinions on not foam rollling your lower back. Would be interested in your opinion on that
Hello: I am playing badminton just for fun from last 4 yrs ..improving day by day...by watching yours videos ..thanks for that. I have one question. Do thickness of strings matters for smash?
Hey Greg and Jenny ..... always looking forward to you new release thanks so much for this consistency.... you rock keep going 💪 👏 🙌 👌 and also can I make a request??? Please make a video to improve coordination between partners in doubles. It would be a great help. And also I would love it if you reply. You both are my inspiration ❤
Video on doubles tactics please: how to force opponents to play like you want them to: flat game (kamura sonoda style) my strength is flat game but often opponents just keep giving high lifts and not letting me get in the flat exchanges
Any research/thoughts on how much time can pass between end of match and stretching the muscles before you've lost the benefit of stretching soon after a badminton session? (VS stretching anytime during a day that doesn't include badminton matches)
3:09 All the online sources I've looked at for stretching the lats in the child's pose show the person moving their hands towards the side opposite of the lats being stretched. The fact that Greg doesn't here - is this a variation specific for badminton?
Hi I used to do some of these cool downs, but after COVID I am more hygiene conscious. Could you do more warm up cool down video that involves less ground touching please? I don’t like bring mats because they are bulky.
Spotted Greg 2:31 Btw was A nice video. Your videos and tutorials are amazing. Can you please help me in how to improve my stepping as it does not come naturally to me me I have to always give attention to it then only it comes. It would be great if you help me. Thank you
we are playing about 8 persons on court. im very fast, 22 yrs old and my footwork is also quiet good. whenever i finished playing, i feel so pain and tightness on muscles. such as low back, shoulders and hamstrings. but other guys say they dont feel tightness or pain on muscles as same as i feel after finished playing badminton. is that because my playing style might be wrong? or other guys who playing with me are not fast and agile as well as me?
Hi, I am Shreya I am really serious about badminton, but I am able to go to my academy only thrice a week. I have no one who can feed me the shuttle because of which I am not able to improve my shot quality. Are there any practices for improving shot quality which I can do even alone?
Hi badminton insight,can you do a video on ways on how to handle stress during a competition,because i have a competition coming up and my whole school is relying on me and I am afraid I won't be able to play my best.
Thanks for the suggestion! We've done a couple of 'mental' videos on the channel already so we'd recommend checking those out first! Good luck in the competition 🏸💥
My bicep hurts everytime i play badminton,my hand starts shaking after even a single session. I didn't had this problem in the begging But as the winter started,it started with it Any help?

Thankyou Sir & Ma'am I always had shoulder pain and never knew about the cooldown.
Ooo found him the second time I saw the video.. behind the door, showing me a thumbs up at 2:31 seconds😆😆
Haha good job 🤪
Thanks guys! This is really helpful! I have the massage gun but never thought of using it as a post cooling down routine!
Glad you enjoyed it! ☺️

Thank you so much! And thanks for the video suggestion :)
Is it important to stretch in the exact order you've shown? Or can you do the 6 stretches in whatever order you want?
Whatever you want! 😊😊
@@BadmintonInsight cheers for that 😃
Excellent cooling off
Thanks Haridas! :)
very useful and huge fan from india ❤

I have one question. Do thickness of strings matters for smash?
Thank you so much! Have you watched our 'stringing guide'? Some strings offer greater repulsion which we talk about in that video!
Please do a video on what type of badminton shoe to recommend!!!! thanks
We’ve already done a video on this! ☺️

Couldn't spot Greg, but loved the video😄😄. Thank you so much✨✨
Haha, glad you enjoyed it! 😄🏸 I'm sure there will be a few comments with the answer soon, if not already 😜
Hey I notice you guys got some videos in the BWF channel. Congrats!
Thank you! Hope you're enjoying them 😄
I ignored this when I first started playing, then suffered an Achilles heel injury. I'll never skip cool down and stretching again. It's not worth it.
100%!
what do you call the rubber band use for arm stretch?
id like to buy some
Question - Are new studies saying that one should actually avoid stretching after workout? As stretching warm muscles actually more harm than good?
Please upload more videos on footwork
Video on doubles tactics please:
how to force opponents to play like you want them to: flat game (kamura sonoda style)

Is apacs finapi 232 is best for smash players ?

Hmm how did you guys recover to the shoulder pain? is it okay to play while your shoulder is in pain when smashing?
A like to try but our court is very rough and dirty

Already done that! 😆
Hey..pls create a detailed video on how to do a proper overhead forehand clear..!! Its a request...

Hi there greg and jen is the cooldown streaches needs to be done just after the sessions or its okay to do it when i get home after the session?
Ideally straight after when you are warm but also at home is better than nothing!

The rules state about not causing "undue delay to the game" - so not a specific amount of time, no!
