The benefits of badminton
Badminton is suitable for men, women and children, and the amount of exercise can be determined according to one’s age, physique, sports level and venue environment. Moderate badminton can promote teenagers’ height growth and cultivate their excellent psychological qualities such as self-confidence, courage and decisiveness. The elderly and infirm can exercise as a method of health care and rehabilitation to achieve the purpose of stretching joints, thereby enhancing the functions of cardiovascular and nervous systems and preventing and treating cardiovascular and nervous system diseases in the elderly. Badminton requires practitioners to judge the ever-changing ball path in a short time and fight back decisively, so it can improve the sensitivity and coordination of human nervous system.
Badminton needs to keep moving, jumping, turning and swinging on the court, and reasonably use various hitting techniques and footwork to hit the ball back and forth on the court, thus increasing the strength of upper limbs, lower limbs and waist muscles, accelerating the blood circulation of the exerciser, and enhancing the functions of cardiovascular system and respiratory system. It is a decompression and relaxation exercise.
What are the weight-loss advantages of badminton?
Relatively speaking, badminton is easy to operate and its technical content is not very high. If you don’t pursue the level of competition, it is a very easy sport to get started. In addition to singles, you can also play doubles and mixed doubles, which is richer and easier to stick to than running and skipping in a single form. After all, you are not exercising alone. So if you want to choose a long-term weight loss exercise that you can stick to, but don’t want to choose running, badminton is a good way.
Matters needing attention in playing badminton
There are many back and forth movements and lateral movements when playing badminton. In order to catch the ball "steadily, accurately and firmly", the movement speed will be very fast. Such rapid movement is easy to cause ankle sprain. The ligaments around the ankle joint and the ankle joint capsule are damaged, which causes joint instability and joint pain, and severe cases need surgical treatment. If you don’t pay attention to long-term exercise, your ankle will be sprained repeatedly, which may turn into arthritis in a few years.
Badminton is an over-the-shoulder sport, that is, the wrist and elbow move beyond the shoulders. Over-shoulder time is long, which easily leads to shoulder fatigue. The impact between the humerus and the acromion may cause subacromial bursitis, medial humeral condylitis, etc. Therefore, there must be sufficient warm-up exercise before playing badminton, so as to avoid injury in high-intensity exercise.
Badminton has low requirements on time, place and physical conditions of participants, and has obvious fitness and sports effects. It is a sport suitable for national fitness. However, it is easy to sweat in spring exercise, so you should wear underwear that can absorb sweat and a coat that can keep out the wind and dissipate heat. Similarly, cotton socks that can absorb sweat should be worn on the feet, and sports shoes should also wear a pair of sports shoes that are warm and breathable. (Tong Zhi)
