Development of Badminton-specific Footwork Training from Traditional Physical Exercise to Novel Intervention Approaches

<strong>Background:</strong> Badminton has been one of the most popularised sports and physical activities around the globe with documented healthy benefits. Training of badminton footwork could enable rapid movement velocity thus improving the athletic performance. This study was aimed to review the development of badminton footwork training and summarise the different exercise training approaches and resistance training. <strong>Methods:</strong> A systematic search of “badminton footwork” and “exercise training” was conducted in the research articles of both English and Chinese languages in order to review the development of badminton sport, footwork classification and definition, traditionally employed exercise training, and resistance training. <strong>Findings and Implication:</strong> A recent popular exercise training intervention, wearable resistance (WR) training, was mainly introduced and discussed as this approach has been successfully employed in the training of other sports. Being a typical acyclic motion on badminton court, the training of badminton footwork shall consider integrating the WR approach with wearable and adjustable loads. The training intervention may attach incremental loads to either the whole body or regional limbs to practice real-competition movements with high-velocity, thus forming motor adaptation. The adaptation from task-specific training may increase footwork efficiency and transfer to match situation. Future WR research should compare different WR loading configurations from acute and longitudinal analysis, thus forming scientific evidence to support selection and design of training scheme for badminton footwork. Findings may provide implications for the selection of approaches and schemes design for badminton-specific footwork training to improve on-court performance and prevent potential injuries.

DeCoach: Deep Learning-based Coaching for Badminton Player Assessment

Wearable devices have gained immense popularity among various pervasive computing and Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications in the past decade. Sports analytics researchers recently focused on improving a player’s performance to help devise a winning strategy based on the player’s gameplay. Especially in a racquet-based badminton sport, it is assumed that handling the racquet during the gameplay is one of the primary reasons to influence the players’ performance. On the contrary, we posit that the players’ stance, body movements, and posture are equally significant in evaluating a player’s performance during the game. A shot characterized by a recommended posture, stance, and body movements allows a player to play a stroke efficiently, thus aiding the player in guiding the shuttle to strategic spots and making it difficult for the opponent to return the shot and score a point. Relying on this hypothesis, we propose DeCoach, a data-driven framework that leverages the stance and posture of the players and ranks them based on their performances. In this effort, we first employ a deep learning-based algorithm to classify the strokes and stances of the players. Secondly, we propose a distance-based methodology to compare the obtained stance of a player with that of a professional player. Finally, we devise a deep learning-based regressor to predict the player’s performance which commences with ranking based on their performance. We evaluate DeCoach using our in-house dataset, Badminton Activity Recognition (BAR) Dataset that is collected using inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensors by placing them on the upper and lower limbs of the players. The BAR dataset is collected from 11 players in the controlled and uncontrolled environment settings for 12 frequently played shots in the game. Empirical results indicate that DeCoach achieves 89.09% accuracy for strokes detection and R2 score of 88.84% in estimating the players’ performance.

Differences between Elite Male and Female Badminton Athletes Regarding Heart Rate Variability, Arterial Stiffness, and Aerobic Capacity.

Cardiovascular health and aerobic capacity play crucial roles in determining the performance of athletes in the highly competitive sport of badminton. Few studies have directly compared heart rate variability (HRV), arterial stiffness, and aerobic capacity between male and female athletes, especially among badminton athletes. This study investigated sex differences in HRV, arterial stiffness, and aerobic capacity in badminton athletes. Elite badminton athletes were recruited and divided into male (n = 20, 21.0 ± 1.8 years old) and female (n = 16, 21.2 ± 2.3 years old) groups. Both groups performed an incremental treadmill running test for the evaluation of maximal oxygen consumption (O2max), anaerobic threshold, and time to exhaustion. They started exercising at a treadmill speed of 2.7 km/h and an inclination of 10% gradient for 3 min, and the speed and inclination were gradually increased every 3 min until they were exhausted or fatigued volitionally. HRV was examined using the Polar heart rate monitor over a period of 5 min at rest in the supine position. Subsequently, the index of arterial stiffness was examined under the same condition. Our results revealed significant differences between the male and female athletes in O2max (men: 60.38 ± 8.98 mL/kg/min, women: 48.13 ± 7.72 mL/kg/min, p < 0.05), anaerobic threshold (men: 41.50 ± 7.26 mL/kg/min, women: 32.51 ± 6.19 mL/kg/min, p < 0.05), time to exhaustion (men: 902.15 ± 120.15 s, women: 780.56 ± 67.63 s, p < 0.05), systolic blood pressure (men: 125.27 ± 7.76 mmHg, women: 107.16 ± 11.09 mmHg, p < 0.05), and arterial stiffness index (men: 63.56 ± 12.55, women: 53.83 ± 8.03, p < 0.05). However, no significant differences in HRV measures were observed between the two groups. These findings suggested that the male badminton athletes demonstrated significantly higher aerobic capacity than did the female athletes, but there were no significant differences in HRV measures. The female athletes exhibited superior arterial function, compared with their male counterparts.

Investigation of the effect of acute badminton training on selected biomotoric parameters

Background and Study Aim. One of the fastest racquet sports in the world, badminton is defined as a versatile, explosive sprint sport that requires players to perform intense rhythmic movements with its highly competitive and dynamic feature. The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of 4-week badminton training on some selected biomotoric features in young individuals engaged in recreational sports.&#x0D; Material and Methods. Twenty seven students of sports sciences voluntarily participated in the study (age = 18,85 ± 0,98 years). A total of 4 weeks of training was given for 2 hours a day specific to badminton sport. We examined the effects of pre-post training development of biomotoric properties, flexibility, reaction, vertical jump, balance and agility parameters on performance. Statistical analyzes of the data obtained as a result of the research were obtained using the IBM SPSS 23.0 package program.&#x0D; Results. The differences before and after badminton training, a statistically significant difference was found between pretest and posttest measurements of flexibility (5.53%), reaction (24.66%), vertical jump (8.93%), and agility (2.54%) tests (p&lt;0.05). In the balance test, although there was a mathematical difference of 17.84%, this difference was not statistically significant (p&gt;0.05). Finally, 4-week training improves flexibility, reaction, vertical jump and agility performances in a positive and meaningful way (p&lt;0.05).&#x0D; Conclusions. The findings showed that the training method specific to badminton sport improved the flexibility, reaction, vertical jump and agility performances of individuals compared to pre-training. Specifically, these results revealed that the training-performance relationship clearly affects each other positively. In future studies, it can be predicted that more multidisciplinary training methods will be directed to research by making macro plans.

Training-Associated Superior Visuomotor Integration Performance in Elite Badminton Players after Adjusting for Cardiovascular Fitness

Badminton is recognized as the fastest racket sport in the world based on the speed of the birdie which can travel up to 426 km per hour. On the badminton court, players are not only required to track the moving badminton birdie (visual tracking and information integration) but also must anticipate the exact timing to hit it back (temporal estimation). However, the association of training experience related to visuomotor integration or temporal prediction ability remains unclear. In this study, we tested this hypothesis by examining the association between training experience and visuomotor performances after adjusting for age, education, and cardiovascular fitness levels. Twenty-eight professional badminton players were asked to perform a compensatory tracking task and a time/movement estimation task for measuring visuomotor integration and temporal prediction, respectively. Correlation analysis revealed a strong association between training experience and performance on visuomotor integration, indicating badminton training may be promoted to develop visuomotor integration ability. Furthermore, the regression model suggests training experience explains 32% of visuomotor integration performances. These behavioral findings suggest badminton training may facilitate the perceptual–cognitive performance related to visuomotor integration. Our findings highlight the potential training in visuomotor integration may apply to eye–hand coordination performance in badminton sport.

Flame structure and fuel reaction on a non-premixed shuttlecock-like conical burner

To promote the efficiency of non-premixed combustion, we designed slot structures with a simple geometry on the side of a conical burner named a shuttlecock-like conical burner. The slot structure which can introduce the air co-flow naturally into the cone instead of using other and complicated geometry is inspired from the particular shape of a shuttlecock serving as a missile in badminton sport. Therefore, the air co-flow not only produces a recirculation zone on the edge of the burner but also moves directly into the burner. The combustion condition transforms from non-premixed to partially premixed combustion; the mixing and reaction of fuel and oxidant are hence greatly enhanced. We observed the structures of the flame and the flow of a shuttlecock-like conical burner, and examined its reaction characteristics with measurements of the chemiluminescence of OH* and the flame temperature. The observation of an isothermal flow field demonstrates that the air co-flow moves directly into the burner via the slots. Double pairs of vortex structures are observed above the exit of the burner because the introduced air co-flow decreases the strength of the outer vortex, allowing the central jet to form an inner vortex. The reaction zone of a shuttlecock-like conical burner hence approaches not only the central region of the flame but also the burner exit. The reaction intensity of the fuel of a shuttlecock-like conical burner is also stronger than that of an ordinary conical burner (without the slots). The designed shuttlecock-like conical burner is significantly useful to serve as a reference to improve the combustion efficiency of non-premixed combustion.

Mental Imagery Applicative Model for Beginner Badminton Coaches

The implementation of mental imagery in the badminton sport coaching is often neglected, especially for beginner badminton coaches.
