  1. We get lots of messages from you guys asking what you should do if you don’t have a powerful smash – so hopefully this video helps you 😃🏸 We also mentioned quite a few different resources in this video, which are all linked in the description above ⬆

  2. Sometimes my trouble is receiving a good smash rather than trying to make one. What's a general tip or workaround to better deal with good steep and fast smashes?

  3. guys u are my half of my badminton life 60% badminton insight and 40% coaching…… thanks a lot guys…….. 🥰🤗❤

  4. I know pretty much that my smash isn't that strong that's why I use your advice in your previous videos, variety! 🙂
    Very effective.

  5. Or .. just smash with confidence, learn the technique correctly and smash hard to all spots but the racket by getting early enough into position (timing), if decepted and late it is easy to read and mostly is not precise enough 😅

  6. Wow 15 years of training specifically for smash power ?

    I just have a whole new respect for those who are very powerful with their smash. Thts dedication right there.

  7. Gregg sir and Jenny mam please can you rate @ GET GOOD AT BADMINTON out of 100…. Cuz you also make amazing analysis and tricks that help me improve my game and so do they make amazing analysis ,,, just wanted to have a professional opinion since they are faceless channel …. Please may be ,,, no offence to no one with all respect I ask 🙏.

  8. Hi Greg and Jenny I’m 12 years old going into my state tournament in one of the hardest groups in mixed doubles. Do you have any tips for opening up with chest for my jump smashes?

  9. This video was very informative especially for someone like me who has an extremely weak smash. I have also seen the How to Smash more powerful video of yours and that was informative however you haven't mentioned how to use your wrist but everything else is on point. One thing that many intermediate players don't know is how to use their wrist efficiently. I kindly request you to make a video on how to use your wrist video again but this time mention how to use your wrist. Also please clear the most common doubt in between intermediate badminton player i.e. what movement should be done the pronation of the forearm or pushing the wrist down

  10. Guys, please please make a video on smash placement in doubles, it is really easier said than done. Finding gaps from the third line is incredibly difficult.

  11. Wonderful video idea by the way…next time can you make the video longer? Thanks! Also, can you please make a video about lunge defense for defending smashes?

  12. Hi Greg and Jenny could you guys do a Video about deceptive shots pls. My shots get predicted all the time.❤❤

  13. What a smashing great tutorial. These tactics and strategies are missing from many amateur games and will certainly help many after they watch this 👍🏼

  14. loved the punch clear skill @4:41 , will apply in my next game. Normally ppl combined with double stroke with this one if not mistaken but directly punch clear seemed worked fine.

  15. This is awesome. Please can you suggest ideas to tackle low serve returns for the face or body and how to to move quickly to tackle this.
