My feet are positioned very well and eyes are focused on the shuttle. The bent arm is the negative aspect that stands out most significantly. ]]> 2017-08-15 02:01:24 UTC https://padlet.com/stagaspard/8sdojmhmme83/wish/181015627 stagaspard https://padlet.com/stagaspard/8sdojmhmme83/wish/181016882 As seen in the video, my arm remains bent at all times. To improve accuracy and power of the shot,  a drill will need to be created. this will help the player keep a straight arm and improve many aspects.  If arm is bent, much power is lost in the shot. Speed is also a factor that is effected, the reason for this is because more effort is required to pull off the shot, therefore reducing both speed and efficiency. ]]> 2017-08-15 02:11:45 UTC https://padlet.com/stagaspard/8sdojmhmme83/wish/181016882 stagaspard https://padlet.com/stagaspard/8sdojmhmme83/wish/181018016 My legs are apart, which allows my body to find the center of gravity. My body is in a state of equilibrium as the line of gravity falls within my base of support. This allows myself to transfer body weight when taking shots in a match. ]]> 2017-08-15 02:20:14 UTC https://padlet.com/stagaspard/8sdojmhmme83/wish/181018016 stagaspard https://padlet.com/stagaspard/8sdojmhmme83/wish/182285001 This is the badminton drill that I have designed in order to improve the bio-mechanical problem. The shuttle is hanging way above my head on a pole. This is to assure that i extend my arm right out in order to hit it, thus hopefully eliminating the bio-mechanical problem. ]]> 2017-08-23 09:59:39 UTC https://padlet.com/stagaspard/8sdojmhmme83/wish/182285001
