  • How to get more power into your smash or more length into your clear? In this video i will go in detail on probably the most common question in badminton and show you how to improve your overhand technique. In this video i will show you:
    1) How the whole movement for a powerful clear and smash works
    2) The most important aspects of the movement and exercises to train them
    3) The most common mistakes, that will limit your power
    --Overview-----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Here a short overview about the different sections and topics in the video:
    0:00 Introduction
    1:12 The Movement Step by Step
    6:10 Grip and Forearmrotation
    8:03 The Elbow
    8:53 The Hip and Bodyrotation
    10:49 Common MIstakes
    14:30 Outro
    -- Additional tipps ------------------------------------------------------------------
    It is important to understand, that the movement for clear smash are very similar. That is the reason, why i made this tutorial for both shots, because they both follow the same principals. Actually there are only two realls small differences between smash and clear:
    1) With a good technique you don’t need full power, to hit a clear from one baseline to the other so the movement is a little slower than the movement of a powersmash
    2) The shots have a differen point of impact. A smash should fly downwards, so you should hit it front of you, so the stringing points downwards in the moment of impact. For a clear you hit the shuttle above or slightly in front of your head, depending on how high or flat you want to play the clear.

    It’s really helpful that Tobias breaks the shot down into smaller motions that you can practice to build muscle memory. Easily the best video I’ve seen on improving smash and clear technique and much better than the couple training classes I had. Also good production quality with clear sound, lighting and slow/stop motion with call outs. Thank you Tobias!

    Really awesome and detailed video! I can tell a lot of work went into this :)
    Here are some things I personally learned from the video!
    1. The hip rotating first, which creates tension above the hip, and helps rotate the body was pretty insightful. Now that I'm aware of this, I'll definitely try to work it in to my smash.
    2. The idea of a "kinetic chain" is also something I've vaguely had in mind, but having a term for it helps me imagine that the energy is chaining/transferred from one part of my body to the next, to generate power.
    3. At [8:42], I was reminded that when I worked on hitting shots from my side, leading with the elbow and hitting, that actually helped me get the timing down for the rotation of the forearm and also down the timing for the right racket face, and that really helped my smash!
    4. At [9:22] I noticed that the arrow was pointing upwards, which reminded me of what my coach from china said, that power is generated by rotating your elbow upward, even for smashes!
    Excellent video, and looking forward to the next one!

    Tobias your videos are amazing!!! I realised that is is HUGELY BENEFICIAL to rewatch the videos a few times that Tobias has produced just for us , free of charge ! How kind is that ! You will improve your badminton even more. Also have yourself videotaped by a friend on a mobile phone perhaps when you play the same shots to see if you are compliant or can improve further. Watch these critically yourself with a supportive person , not a person who will criticise you or make you feel inadequate. ( if that happens dump him or her fast).
    Thank you 🙏 Tobias for you amazing selfless videos.

    I have seen a lot of smash and power tutorials before. I think this is the first one on which i agree on every aspect. This is such a good video, without any mistakes. The nuances are exactly right and some aspects doesn't matter to him like the racket position in preparation. This is so true! Everybody look carefully at the video and start practicing the him movement as shown. Really well done!

      🙏 Thank you Tobias for the encouraging heart. I really appreciate it tremendously. I sincerely hope you and your fellow badminton 🏸 players are allowed to play 🏸 our favourite sport ( badminton of course!) in your 🏡 country . In 🇬🇧 the UK and my hometown where I reside due to the Coronavirus situation badminton 🏸 is banned in the gymnasiums. I haven’t played badminton 🏸 for around 6 moths now. It’s very ☹️ sad as you can imagine.
      Thanks again for your charity in giving to us all your stupendous knowledge on UTube. I can never put it into words how deeply grateful I am. I know I am speaking for ALL OF US that watch and are those whom are subscribed to your fantabulous UTUBE channel Tobias. You must have such 😊 lovely and highly honourable parents. Please mention my complements to them both as well as your entire family including grandparents and brothers and sisters and uncles and aunties whom I am sure are extremely proud and supportive of you. Your parents must have spent many hours driving you around to different venues all over the country when you were a youngster learning and playing badminton and going up the ranks and spent lots of money 💵 supporting you financially at that time. Your coaches are another set of people whom will also be very 👍 proud of your accomplishments Tobias.
      You are amazing son. I say this as I am 62 yrs old now. God will reward you for your totally unselfish help for us all. May He reveal Himself and cradle you in His loving Arms and make you His forever.

I am a much better smasher than I was when I initially viewed this video. Thank you again . Your drills increase my awareness of the basic smash techniques, so critical for consistency and power. Coach Tobias you are my role model. I am a better player thanks to you.

    @rubiconklbrutorowman7577 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Yes Tobias, like name also, thank 4 ur quality video lesson takes out mystery out of smash and clear. I will watch explosive start and split step, which foot work is key to get there, otherwise useless all that techniques cannot apply. I like to see repeated half dozen times, slow motion in forehand and backhand side motion that is key for beginners to trying to reach middle level that whole lot of people can wish for your quality video, repeat slow motion in 1) forehand, 2) backhand, 3) foot step forward, back, and side to side, right side and left side, I know grapevine foot work like movement in left side but back side is like fast double step some players are doing that likely is incorrect in terms of perfect foot step back foot work theory!
