Hi Coach Kennie, Well, I started to play badminton for fun actually but now I want to get serious about it for my own health. I guess this is my first step to improve my play(I usually does not warm up but thanks to this I can play the sport with less worry.), and also to strengthen my knees and arms. It's the only sport I can play and I want to get better on it. Thank you.

Dear Coach, I am a recent player in Badminton, just a beginner. due to corona I start work out from home and watching matches to improve my flexibility and skill. I usually warm-up before I play or in my work out but only 1 or 2 minutes maximum. from this moment I will give much importance to my warm-up before I start. Thank you for your videos and I will find the time to watch your other classes to guide myself.

[@CoachKennieAsuncion]

Thank you for taking my advice on warming up before playing or working out because it truly is very important. It really helps prevent unwanted injuries. I am happy to know you continue to find ways to improve despite this corona situation we are all in. Take care. Stay healthy & safe!! 😁🏸
