      Not only are zsw n hyq are talented...they are extremely hardworking...training way longer and harder that others. Esp zsw. There is a video w him training too much during COVID when they couldnt go out to compete...really committed. Mixed doubles was the favourite to watch last few years even better than men singles. It's going to be hard to keep the like light in this event w zsw retiring, Thai n Japan pair split. They were extremely exciting to watch.

    Also want to add, its so easy for us as the viewer to see Greg and Jenny "struggling" with the drills, but on court its all so much faster and the opponents are literally the worlds best. So cool to watch and learn with you guys!

  • @drw1351
    @drw1351 Місяць тому +4

    Couple of things to learn from for me;
    SW : Stay patient, stay patient!!
    Me : BUT IM ALREADY DEAD!! 😂😂
    Moral of the exercise : You MUST have extra gas in the tank when in a long rally and bide your time before finding a way to win the point. It's a mental game as well a physical one.
    The 3v3
    Me : WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO TO WIN A POINT?? 😵😵
    Moral of the exercise : Even with SW on your side, the other team's defence was very much up to the task. The saying IS really true that it's not over until the shuttle hits the floor, literally!!
    I also noticed a few "trickshots" and extra-ordinary shots you both played to win the point. From the last video, I noticed it too so maybe it's a good time to incorporate more of that in your games because you're definitely capable of pulling it off. 😁😁

    @TekkaiJon Місяць тому +1

    Great video. 2 things that got me thinking:
    1. Maybe the key for your breakthrough is just increasing the duration of your training. You could be training too little right now.
    2. If you train as hard as zsw, do you think you can reach his level? Where does individual talent come in and how much does it help? Is there a possibility one trains 2x as hard as zsw but because he does not have as much talent, the max that player can reach is 80% of zsw.

    • @BadmintonInsight
      @BadmintonInsight  Місяць тому +2

      Thanks 😄 unfortunately many many years of training at this intensity is needed, and also the ability for the body to cope with the demands.

    • @richardgibson1872
      @richardgibson1872 16 днів тому

      still depends on the body, obviously these athletes in china dont have a life outside of badminton because they straight up focus their day to day in training. i guess that factors in why they retire at such a young age
