Hi Coach Lee, I am so glad to have come across this video because I am a culprit at this mistake and the reason I was doing it is because I see all these advanced Club players who consider themselves 'elite' at the clubs I go to doing it. These are players that think they know it all and actually have the audacity to coach us less experienced players without being requested to. So once again I thank you....
Thanks Coach Lee. This technique is something I used to be guilty of however since correcting this mistake, I now hold the unofficial record for the world's fastest smash so it really does work. Best wishes
Your videos are way too useful and I have learned a lot from your tutorials. I really liked the way you explain each and every aspect of the shot and its advantages/drawbacks. Thank you Coach Lee :)
Thanks Mr.Lee for your valuable demonstration on backhand action. It is really helpful to many like me in improving their style of smash...Thanks a lot
You are most welcome and I am very pleased rto know that it helped you in somep art of your badminton. Thank you for taking time to post your kind comment. Lee
if i want to replaying some part of the video, i get confused which one the correct one and which one the wrong way .__. It'll be great if you can put caption "wrong" or "right" to each demonstration
Very well done Coach Lee, and I second your approach! I was confused as to why one of my students was slicing her smash (new player and trained with me for 2 months so far). After feeding another 20 birds and re-checking her grip, body position, feet position, shoulder/elbow/arm/wrist action, everything looked fine until I could not stand it any longer and took out my iPhone to see in slow-mo - I finally saw the back-swing was not straight backwards! Her set position was good, so did not notice this initially as the swing is quite fast. You just found a needle in a hay stack on this one *thumbs up
I will watch your videos daily when am going to bed. These videos are amazing to improvise myself. sometimes I ll play in stress of my job odd timings.
In truth, most good players hit just like coach lee demonstrates in this video. The reason why most people believe that the good players ''roll'' their racquet and that it goes behind their back is that they are forgetting that in order to do a proper shot you must also rotate your body. In fact, if I do my backswing the same way coach Lee shows (the good way) AND I add the body rotation, my raquet SEEMS to make a ''circle'' behind my back while it doesn't, in reality. Combining both the body rotation (shoulders being parralel to the shuttle's trajectory then perpendicular) and the proper racquet backswing will give you a strong, precise and quick motion.
This is such a subtle point, Coach Lee. I have been trying to first become aware of what I'm doing wrong and that itself is challenging. Getting someone to show me a video of what I'm doing has helped. Will keep on practicing to improve. Thanks for your detailed videos. They're very helpful. One question: Is there a particular order in whihch one must study the videos?
Hi Coach Lee, I just wanted to say that even though we haven't met each other you've been more than a teacher to me, you've been an inspiration. Your videos have improved my game beyond my expectations! I also wanted to ask that when I practice the Step One I always perform it correctly but in match situations I just don't do it for some reason, please help me with this. Cheers, Abdul Mueed Kayani
wow, it's so clear , now I know why my smatch is not that powerful, I will try this way next time, it's trivial that is more powerful your way . again thank alots .
Hi Coach Lee, my is gym class we are playing badminton. If you beat the Physical Education teacher in 1 game, he will give you an A+ for the rest of the semester, and you don't have to take any tests. Before watching your videos, our game was 2-8, me being the 2. I hope after watching these I will beat him. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. Lee, please tell, why top players use "circle swing"? Could you make a detail video with demonstration your technique? Please also demonstrate it on different players.
I am going to make very detailed forehand overhead hitting skills step by step and you will see very clearly what I mean and how to do it. Some international players are doing the way but some are not. I can not answer why they do the way they do it. When you see my detailed clips then you will have better idea why you should do it or why you should not do it. Please wait for little while until I make those clips. Thank you very much for your comment. Lee
Thanks for such an informative video Coach Lee. Can you please make a few videos on the importance of nutrition in Badminton. What is it that the top international players eat and what do they not eat. Especially the Chinese.
When we usually smash, it is accompanied by the scissor step to get my right foot to front if i am right handed. How does one time that transition. I think that's where most of us including me would be making a mistake.
Dear Lee, Just when I think that you have explained everything about a shot, you come up with a video showing one more common pitfall! In order to get more power, sometimes I used this wrong technique myself. Sometimes I used to hit well but other times, the shuttle was getting sliced because of circular motion!! Now I understand that it is totally the incorrect way. Will remember, practice and report results to you. My smashing has improved over 300 % - 400 % of late. Earlier it was totally bad (almost like a drop shot) but now, I am able to force a weak return even from good players. Thank you very very much! Also please make videos on how to grip the racket in the front, middle and rear courts (short to long handles).
Dear Ramachandra Thank you very much for your comment. I am very pleased to know my clips have helped your smash skills. Yes I will make note on my recording list. Thank you very much for posting your comment. Lee
Very Interesting video. In tennis, when serving, the racquet head drop is thought of as being essential. I know tennis may not be your sport, but do you think your badminton principles might apply to the tennis serve?
I very much enjoy your videos and my father has said that the way you teach is beautiful and very clear. I am wondering why you have stopped uploading to this channel.
Thank you very much for you and your father comment. I am very pleased to know. Would you please pass my sincere regards to your father. I am going to make new clips in March. Sorry for keep you waiting for a long time. Lee
Hi Coach Lee! Your videos are amazing, and you are a great a coach. I would just like to ask you a question. My footwork isn't good that's why I have troubles in catching a drop shot or a shot in the back. What drills should I do to make my footwork better?
I am sorry that I have missed your question and just found out. Start with drop and net drill first. Your partner drop from rear court and you return it to the net drop, then your partner lift it back to your rear court and then you drop it to the net then your partner drop it to the net then you lift it to your partner rear court. when you do the net drop, it is 1 and when your partner do net drop then it is 2. Keep counting until 20 then rest for 1 min then do it again for 5 sets. You can do it straight direction or you can do it cross direction. Try and good luck. Lee
Coach Lee i've been taught to scratch my back when i hit it. I'll try it the way you teach it the next time i play. My question is wouldn't I get more pronation in my shot if i did it scratch my back way?
Hi coach Lee, and thanks for all the great tips and videos! I have a small question and didn't find an answer to: If I take the shuttle over my head and want to do a forehand clear, which grip is more appropriate? Thank you very much and keep up the good work!
You made a very good question, it is depending on how much time and how much space you have your grip can be used as ready grip, 10% changed forehand grip or pan handle grip. Soon I am going to start to record forehand over head hitting skills in very detail way and the answers to your question will be answer then. But it will take little time before I do it. But My next recording will be on this issue so it wont take too long. Thank you for your good question. Lee
Master lee can you give some tips on how to smash down or how to hit a smash with better angle? I am mainly confused on where to contact the shuttlecock. Thanks
You must take the shuttlecock in front of your body. You must not take it above your head. I do know many people try to do it and teach that way but it is not true. If you take in front of your body then you can make the smash much steeper and accurate. If you try to hit it above your head smash will go flat and loose power and accuracy. Lee
Coach Lee, I have a qs. It might sound weird but I wanna know how to dive in badminton or when to dive and how to get back to the middle ... Thank you. Hazim :)
Sometime players diving and some of the top players do but my opinon is different. Player should train to use steps. I am not really right person to advise you on how to dive as I do not know about it. Sorry Muhammad. Lee
Coach lee ... I am very fond of playing badminton and I regularly follow your tips and tricks thank you very much for your videos From the last 15 days I am suffering from ligament tear in my left knee while playing badminton it is very painful .. So can you please tell me that how to prevent this type of injuries in future
+Coaching Badminton I have watched your warming up videos I will follow that ...especially I liked guys were playing with shuttlecock throwing to each other .. Thanks again 👍🏼
Thanks Coach lee, This is soo cool! i have been playing for a year now and have been very serious about it. My coach also teaches the whole scratch back and hit thing too. I am very skinny and don't have much power but this change has made my smashes lethal. Another tip i got from a friend is that i need to step back and walk through with smash, need to be atleast a meter apart to lunge forward to have more power, is this true??
I am against the movement. 1. There is not enough time to do it 2. there will be no momentum you can create When you are hitting the shuttlecock you should switch your feet to give more power and bring you to the basement. Please see the clips related with smash or clear steps. I am very pleased to know that my clip helped your badminton. Good luck with your badminton development and I hope my clips continue help you. Lee
Sir, I want to enter into state and national tournaments, I trained with one of the best coaches in my city, Mumbai. But now I'm just playing matches with a good badminton marker everyday and I do endurance and fitness training on my own. Is that okay? Joining coaching classes is difficult for me due to my degree commitments. Please give me your input on the matter
Yes that sound very good. Just everything you do, do it with best possible quality and concentration. The most important thing is your desire and confident to win and that will take you to the right way to train. Good luck. Lee
Thank you. I personally like a bit heavy racket then light racket. It is not easy to say which racket you should use as each player is different. Best way is you to try and few rackets and choose the one you feel right. Lee
+Coaching Badminton Thanks for the response :D, do you have any advice on badminton grip size? I've seen a lot of conflicting articles on it, I use an overgrip but I'm not sure if it's the right size? If I hold it tight my fingers touch my palm
As i'm trying to do this, i`ve come up with a question: If you use your technique, the racket is still turned a bit sideways for a very, very short moment of time, right before it comes out, right? I saw some slow motions of pro players like Fu Haifeng and there it was also turned sideways. If it shouldn't be like that, I don't really know how I should perform a full and powerful swing and how i should use my wrist properly. If I try to do it your way, it`s always turned a bit sideways (its just for a split second right before you use the wrist) and i'm not sure if i'm doing it right, so please tell me ;) BTW, I think it would be a good idea to put both motions side to side. In my opinion it's easier to see the difference then, cause you dont have to go back and forth several times, and it will also save up some time on the video ;) Besides that, great video coach ;)
Thank you very much. I fully understand your points. It is not possible to move your racket backward very straight, it will be turning bit. What I am against is the extreme turning which reduce power 40-50%. I am going to make very detailed forehand overhead hitting skills step by step and you will see very clearly what I mean and how to do it. Yes I agree with you that it would be so much better if I could put the motion side by side by I have not find out how to do it. My editing skill is not really good to do it. But I shall try to do it soon. Thank you very much for your comment. Lee
+Coaching Badminton Ok, then I did it right, and I understand your technique. I'll definitely pay more attention to it the next time I play. Thanks for the fast and helpful answer :)
You are most welcome. Yes this is a very important issue as if you have good skill of it your smash, clear and drop shot would be all good otherwise it will all be not good too. Lee
Everyone have same problem but that is very normal. As you practice more and play more soon you know if it is in or out. Concentrated practice would help you to be at such level sooner. Lee
It is a good skill and players should be able to do it. There are a number of different kind of jump smash depending on different situations. I shall make clips. Lee
Lee Chong Wei dropped his racket to his back at 20:41 but still delivered a good smashed. I think it is hard to do it the right way even for him. th-cam.com/video/GfprvqbuzBM/w-d-xo.html
Thank you very much for your input. What I am saying in this clip is hitting action is better then pushing. How other players are doing why they are doing is not the point as everyone has their own way and style which I respect. If you are interested in the point I am making, you may try or you may disregard it. It is not right and good manner to talk about a player hitting action. I do respect the way each player is doing. You may agree with me or you may disagree, which ever way we all learn each other that is why I upload this clip. I would like to hear your opinion why you agree or why you disagree. I put my reasons why and I am interested in your opinion and reasons please. Lee
+Coaching Badminton Hello Lee, It is absolutely works. I am a fress badminton player, but my sparring partners don't believe his eyes:) thanks your answer!!! Peter
All of the pros end up with their rackets behind their heads: th-cam.com/video/NUp5duS9pp8/w-d-xo.html Partly because they rotate their torsos 90 degrees (as they should when doing full swing), unlike the instructor in this video who performs only minimal torso rotation. What should be explained, and is not explained in this video, is that most of the power of your shot comes primarily from pronation/supination of your forearm, not from pushing motion generated by turning the body. This video explains it decently: th-cam.com/video/HNVC5PVJyPQ/w-d-xo.html
Great video coach Lee, your style is much better than the majority of coaches I've had before.
Thank you very much for your comment. Lee
Nice

Thank you very much for your kind comment and I am most pleased to know. Have a very good day. Lee

You are most welcome and I am very pleased rto know that it helped you in somep art of your badminton.
Thank you for taking time to post your kind comment. Lee
Repeat too much wrong way, should repeat correct way more to let us learn the correct method.
You got good point and thank you for your advise. Lee
if i want to replaying some part of the video, i get confused which one the correct one and which one the wrong way .__.
It'll be great if you can put caption "wrong" or "right" to each demonstration
Sure I will put that in my mind. Thank you. Lee

Her set position was good, so did not notice this initially as the swing is quite fast. You just found a needle in a hay stack on this one *thumbs up
I am very pleased to know you noticed it.
In my view 80% of club players back swing have some kind of issue.
Thank you for your comment. Lee
Really miss coach because you are not here,but your videos helps a lot..really love your coaching coach
Thank you for your kind comment. Lee
I will watch your videos daily when am going to bed. These videos are amazing to improvise myself. sometimes I ll play in stress of my job odd timings.

Hi Coach Lee, my is gym class we are playing badminton. If you beat the Physical Education teacher in 1 game, he will give you an A+ for the rest of the semester, and you don't have to take any tests. Before watching your videos, our game was 2-8, me being the 2. I hope after watching these I will beat him. Thanks!
I very much hope you beat him too.
Do a lot of practice and if you set your mind deeply, it will happen. Good luck. Lee

Makasih om atas pelatihannya...
Thank you sir. If I wanted your videos earlier, I would avoided my injury.

You mean how Li Xue Rui does it? I notice her do this when she smashes or clears
Coach Lee i've been taught to scratch my back when i hit it. I'll try it the way you teach it the next time i play. My question is wouldn't I get more pronation in my shot if i did it scratch my back way?
I think the best way is to try two different ways and choose the one you feel gives more power and accuracy.
Thank you for your question. Lee
Hi coach Lee, and thanks for all the great tips and videos! I have a small question and didn't find an answer to: If I take the shuttle over my head and want to do a forehand clear, which grip is more appropriate? Thank you very much and keep up the good work!

Thank you very much coach!
You are very welcome. Lee
"why not.. BANG!"
It is because I am using a mic. Lee
Coach Lee should start an academy for badminton coaches...too many people who want to teach but are not doing it in the right way!
sir iam not able to lift my hand completely while hitting shuttle
Nice video thanks Coach Lee
You are most welcome. Lee
Thank u ,this has helped me a lot .
You are very welcome and I am very pleased to know. Lee
coach lee, do u have a video of adding extra power to clears and smashes? my coach says my form is quite good but i lack power
also for backhand clear, my techique and form is there but my power is very weak like i would at most clear to half of the court from the back thanks.
Yes there are number of clips for both skills.
Please view them and let me have your questions.
Lee
Thank you for this great video!
You are most welcome and thank you for your kind comment. Lee
Thank u very much Mr. Lee.
You are most welcome. Lee
Hi coach lee, i was taught to follow through across my body, rather than go straight down, which is correct?
There are many different ways to hit shuttlecock. The best way is you to try the different ways and choose the one you feel the best. Lee
im a big fan of badminton and i really!! wanna train from u(BUT CANT). love u (as a coach) ;)
Thank you for being my big fan. I also love you as my online student.
Lets hope we meet one day in the futur
Sure 😊
Master lee can you give some tips on how to smash down or how to hit a smash with better angle? I am mainly confused on where to contact the shuttlecock. Thanks

From the last 15 days I am suffering from ligament tear in my left knee while playing badminton it is very painful .. So can you please tell me that how to prevent this type of injuries in future
You must rest to fully recover from the injury. Do warm up well and make your leg strong.
Having good movement skills also would provent injuries. Lee
+Coaching Badminton I have watched your warming up videos I will follow that ...especially I liked guys were playing with shuttlecock throwing to each other .. Thanks again 👍🏼
I am very ploeased to know that you like the clip. Thank you too. Lee
great teacher...thanks a lot..

I am very pleased to know that my clip helped your badminton. Good luck with your badminton development and I hope my clips continue help you. Lee
totally changed the way i play thanks
I am so very pleased to know. Lee
Hi Coach Lee, how would you improve ones accuracy in smashing?
Understand and learn the right skills and practice a lot and your smash will be very accurate.
Lee

The tension is very high when coach starring silent few second after explaining the wrong pose... reminds me of my math teacher
I hope it is not a bad thing to you.
Sir, I want to enter into state and national tournaments, I trained with one of the best coaches in my city, Mumbai. But now I'm just playing matches with a good badminton marker everyday and I do endurance and fitness training on my own. Is that okay? Joining coaching classes is difficult for me due to my degree commitments.
Please give me your input on the matter
Yes that sound very good. Just everything you do, do it with best possible quality and concentration.
The most important thing is your desire and confident to win and that will take you to the right way to train. Good luck. Lee
Hello sir, I am salman. This video so helpful. But sir i have a problem racket choosing.I play badminton almost two years.Thank you sir.
Thank you. I personally like a bit heavy racket then light racket.
It is not easy to say which racket you should use as each player is different.
Best way is you to try and few rackets and choose the one you feel right. Lee
Thank you sir.
You are welcome. Lee
great videos coach
Thank you very much. Lee
Just what I needed
Thanks for getting a proper mic, helps a lot :D, also what country are you situated in Lee?
Thank you and I am pleased to know you like it. I am in Toronto in Canada. Lee
+Coaching Badminton Thanks for the response :D, do you have any advice on badminton grip size? I've seen a lot of conflicting articles on it, I use an overgrip but I'm not sure if it's the right size? If I hold it tight my fingers touch my palm
Yes I do feel that it is important to have right grip size.
I shall make clips for it soon. Lee
As i'm trying to do this, i`ve come up with a question: If you use your technique, the racket is still turned a bit sideways for a very, very short moment of time, right before it comes out, right? I saw some slow motions of pro players like Fu Haifeng and there it was also turned sideways. If it shouldn't be like that, I don't really know how I should perform a full and powerful swing and how i should use my wrist properly. If I try to do it your way, it`s always turned a bit sideways (its just for a split second right before you use the wrist) and i'm not sure if i'm doing it right, so please tell me ;)
BTW, I think it would be a good idea to put both motions side to side. In my opinion it's easier to see the difference then, cause you dont have to go back and forth several times, and it will also save up some time on the video ;)
Besides that, great video coach ;)
Thank you very much. I fully understand your points. It is not possible to move your racket backward very straight, it will be turning bit. What I am against is the extreme turning which reduce power 40-50%.
I am going to make very detailed forehand overhead hitting skills step by step and you will see very clearly what I mean and how to do it. Yes I agree with you that it would be so much better if I could put the motion side by side by I have not find out how to do it. My editing skill is not really good to do it. But I shall try to do it soon.
Thank you very much for your comment. Lee
+Coaching Badminton Ok, then I did it right, and I understand your technique. I'll definitely pay more attention to it the next time I play. Thanks for the fast and helpful answer :)
You are most welcome. Yes this is a very important issue as if you have good skill of it your smash, clear and drop shot would be all good otherwise it will all be not good too. Lee
when will the next video be uploaded?
I am planing to do it very soon. In this month.
Sorry for keep you waiting. Lee
+Coaching Badminton ok thanks
sir i like your tecnic....
Excellent!!!
Thank you. Lee
how to control wrist work during smash defense
By a lot of practice is the only way to have it. Lee
I have been doing this actually, I think i get more speed when i drop the racket head to my back
I hope you feel the difference between the two hitting actions. Lee
thanks coach lee
You are most welcome. Lee
coach Lee during my play I can't guess backside outline usally due to my fault I used to take all outside cocks also can u help me
Everyone have same problem but that is very normal. As you practice more and play more soon you know if it is in or out. Concentrated practice would help you to be at such level sooner. Lee
haha thats me i always hit the shuttlecock like this .
Thanks Coach :)
You are very welcome and I do hope it helps your badminton. Lee
Please make a trick shot video sir I
Learnt so many things from u as a kid
I am very pleased to know. The trick shot clips will be made soon.
Lee
Coaching Badminton thank you sir.
You are most welcome. Lee
Coach what is your opinion about jump smash
It is a good skill and players should be able to do it. There are a number of different kind of jump smash depending on different situations. I shall make clips. Lee
Ok lee the audio is much better now :)
Thank you and pleased to know. Lee
I will try to remember this evening when I play. Gamsa hap nee da.
You are most welcome and I hope it works for you. Lee
Thanks master
Lee Chong Wei dropped his racket to his back at 20:41 but still delivered a good smashed. I think it is hard to do it the right way even for him. th-cam.com/video/GfprvqbuzBM/w-d-xo.html
Thank you very much for your input.
What I am saying in this clip is hitting action is better then pushing.
How other players are doing why they are doing is not the point as everyone has their own way and style which I respect. If you are interested in the point I am making, you may try or you may disregard it. It is not right and good manner to talk about a player hitting action. I do respect the way each player is doing. You may agree with me or you may disagree, which ever way we all learn each other that is why I upload this clip. I would like to hear your opinion why you agree or why you disagree. I put my reasons why and I am interested in your opinion and reasons please. Lee
@2:56 the correct form
still in this club
Thank you..
You are very welcome. Lee

Yes, I am going to record more in March.
Sorry for being late. Lee
Thank u sir
You are most welcome. Lee
I only want to copy you;-). Thank you from Budapest.
You are most welcome and I hope it works for you. Lee
+Coaching Badminton Hello Lee, It is absolutely works. I am a fress badminton player, but my sparring partners don't believe his eyes:) thanks your answer!!! Peter
I am so very pleased to know. Thank you for letting me know it is working for you. Lee
YOU ROCK
Thank you. Lee
The way he explains makes me feel guilty.
All of the pros end up with their rackets behind their heads: th-cam.com/video/NUp5duS9pp8/w-d-xo.html
Partly because they rotate their torsos 90 degrees (as they should when doing full swing), unlike the instructor in this video who performs only minimal torso rotation.
What should be explained, and is not explained in this video, is that most of the power of your shot comes primarily from pronation/supination of your forearm, not from pushing motion generated by turning the body. This video explains it decently: th-cam.com/video/HNVC5PVJyPQ/w-d-xo.html
Thank you very much for your in put.
Lee
