See the difference with and without step one!!!
Now, I would like to show you
the most important step in badminton
I call it starter step
the fact in badminton is
the player does not know where opponent will hit
so the player have to wait until opponent makes shot
and then he or she can only move after
its like traffic lights
you drive car and you approach traffic lights
you have to wait there until the light changes
and then you can start
the question is after the traffic light change
after opponent hit
how fast can you move
that is the point
the player cannot move before opponent hit
player cannot move same time as opponent hit
because he can't see
because he does not know where it is going to go
so the fact is the player have to wait
and act after
now that is the fact, then we have to think
what kind of step allow the player to act fast
after he saw the shot
I call it step one
have a look this is it
ready
you have to do, before you go any where
in badminton there must be this step one
that one
because that one
will allow you to explosively push off
for example shuttle is there
you saw it, then it should be 1 2 3
1 2 3
rather than
1 2 3 4
1 its not possible in real badminton
but 8 or 9 out of 10 club players
are currently practising
1 2 3 4
1 2 3 4
backhand
1 2 3 4
1 2 3 4
which is not happening in the real match
so if you don't do one
it looks like you are starting your car with gear 2 or gear 3
will be very slow
so let's say over there
it should be
1 2 3
there
1 2
side
1 2 3
1 2
back
1 2 3
1 2 3
now compare
if I don't do one
how fast can I get
ready
1 2
1 2
compare
1 2 3
1 2
so where ever shuttle goes
before badminton player move anywhere
there will always be step one
for example clear
step one
lift
step one
drive
step one
because you have to pause until your opponent hit it
you land, because you land you can push off
compare
hit
stop
and then go
hit stop and then come back
but, I saw so many club players still practising
the movement without one
no one, no step one, no badminton
this is that much important
