A badminton racquet must be
light (equal or less than 85 grams), its head produces powerful
smashes and can withstand more than 26 lbs. of string tension, and
must have stiff shaft and small grip (equal or smaller than G4 Yonex
size grip). Low string tension (18-20 lbs.) produce more powerful
but less accurate shots and fast steep angled smashes. High
tension (22-26 lbs.) produce less power (less bounce effect), but
more accurate shots, you will be able to control
where the shuttlecock goes and produce high smashes. Thin string
(equal or less than .66mm) make the racquet head lighter, move
fast swing and fast shot (your shuttlecock move faster too),
makes less
powerful shots and less durable string. You can feel the
shuttlecock touch the string with a good racquet. And a good
racquet let you make many shots with less effort on your arm so
you will not run out of juice/battery quickly. |

**I
use
3M Nexcare reusable hot/cold pack, Philips Infraphil HP3609
infra-red light lamp, big and small hot/cold bags, and Wahl Massager
4189
to relieve my stiff arms/legs and fatigued/ached
muscle from playing badminton. Hot water dip mix with table salt,
ginger, white flower medicated oil and Isopropyl Alcohol will help
your feet too. And also hot and cold bag, Salonpas patches,
Jacuzzi dip, hot spring dip, hot shower/bathtub, sunbathing, use hair
dryer, and hot water rub/massage on the affected areas then
rub/massage with rubbing alcohol afterward will help too. For best
result, apply on the affected areas for 20 minutes and always do
flexibility exercise before and after every badminton games to
stretch muscle groups most prone to cramping and stiffness. Eat
lots of bananas, nuts and fruits rich in potassium, calcium and magnesium. |

Carbohydrate (includes sugars, starches, dietary
fibers, etc.) provide energy (in form of glucose) to all of our
body tissues. And if our diet doesn't supply enough carbohydrate,
our liver will take the protein (includes meat, poultry, fish,
eggs, milk, beans, tofu, etc.) we eat and convert it to glucose.
And if our diet is chronically low in calories, proteins and
carbohydrate, our body will break down muscle and other important
proteins to make needed glucose. The end result can be muscle
wasting, a sluggish metabolism, delayed healing from an injury and
a weakened immune system. And
sweat drains our
body’s fluids, salt and minerals (i.e., potassium, magnesium and
calcium), loss of these nutrients may also cause a muscle to
spasm.
So don't forget to eat the right diet
consisting of carbohydrate, protein, salt, minerals and lots of
water (in hot weather) when playing badminton 2-3 times a week.
Some take Amino Acids (Creatine and Glutamine) to boost muscle
energy and recovery. Stretch your muscle
before and after playing badminton and stretch everyday
thereafter. And if you have high blood pressure or any other heart
disorder, please don't play badminton anymore.
