The best app for athletes
16:34|In this episode you will learn about the power of journaling as a habit and my own free tool to get better at it. If you don't want another app, just write the questions down and write on a paper (don't tell this to my business manager). We all want to have the best physical training program in the world, yet we lose matches because of focus (lack of focus) or other. We don't improve as we should because we don't reflect over our sessions as we should. Are you tired of losing those close matches? Do you want to get everything out of each session?

Physical Standards for Badminton Players
17:20|Physical standards for badminton are what I call "bare minimun requirements" in order to perform and play at some level without risking injury and still perform. In this episode I talk about mobility, strength, explosiveness/power and conditioning in regards to badminton physical standards. In the following episodes I will dive a bit deeper in each subject and give you even more standards and tests to help you figure out your own strengths and weaknesses as well as how to train to improve each physical quality.

Building sport-specific endurance for badminton players
26:53|Sport-specific endurance is a hard topic do discuss and to understand. Especially when we think about endurance and see a marathon-runner or a tour-de-france athlete. Endurance is more than just those sports. How do the pros keep the same tempo and intensity for an entire match? How do they not lose explosiveness during the last set of the last match of a tournament? Well, that´s because they have badminton-specific endurance. In this podcast I go over how to build endurance for badminton players and how to train for different types of endurance as well. We´ll be talking about on-court as well as off-court stuff.
