“My favorite sport is badminton”
Badminton is a sport that is generally familiar to everyone. Armed with racquets, two players or two pairs throw a small shell - shuttlecock through a net that divides the field in half. Each of the participants by all means achieves the landing of the shuttlecock on the territory of the enemy and at the same time tries to prevent a fall near you.
Most of our compatriots know this game only as a kind of summer vacation. Few people know that badminton is one of the most energy-intensive sports and even enters the cosmonaut training program. Of course, such loads impose high demands on the physical shape of athletes. An important condition for success is endurance, but in addition it is necessary to have remarkable strength, flexibility, agility, speed and coordination.
Professionals hone all these qualities with the help of special exercises, but, of course, the game itself contributes perfectly to their development. Regular exercises can increase the body's stamina, strengthen muscles, improve coordination and get rid of excess weight.
