" Back into our badminton clothes, as we don't own any other clothes "😂 love it guyz spontaneous hilarity🤣. Btw amazing video and keep doing more of these vlog type videos they are much more entertaining ❤️

[@BadmintonInsight]

😂 thank you so much Devansh!

[@EL8888]

4:00 thanks Jenny for mentioning it, I think most of the time people including myself take it as guaranteed without appreciating how much effort you guys have been putting into everything, especially as pro players than full time youtubers. What's great in this one is it not only shows top players daily routine, but also your life! And look at the skills in those training clips!!

[@BadmintonInsight]

Thank you so much! It’s definitely difficult at times but worth the effort 😀 we love making the videos for you guys!!

[@kara6320]

You guys are so inspiring, you both are so productive with your time, eat so healthy and just overall have your life together amazing!! 😃 I aspire to be like that one day 🤣

[@BadmintonInsight]

Haha thanks 😀😀😂

Just the video I wanted 🤩 Can’t wait to watch the class!

[@BadmintonInsight]

🥳 hope you enjoy it & learn a lot!

[@daveuk9305]

A really instructive video, and a great lead in to your new nutrition site. Eating the correct foods at the right times is something that's so often overlooked.

[@BadmintonInsight]

Thank you so much Dave! 👍🏻

Great great video guys and really thanks for putting out a nutrition class too! I really do enjoy, "day in the life of" videos, more please and more of your training, strength etc, if possible.. (asking for Chinese friends too!) I do love how your fellow teammates on the other court will look at your training session, as soon as their shuttle drops, so much love for the game!

[@BadmintonInsight]

Thank you so much Roger!

Was awesome to see the shot of Towers in there! I lived there for three years as a student and we played our badminton at Victoria Hall - next to the worlds worst university pool.... It's AMAZING to see the facilities that are there now!

This teriyaki chicken looks soooo tasty ! Thanks for the video. I'll purchase the class for sure ! Quick question : How do you organize a badminton season ? like how do you chose wich tournament you are gonna play and all the logistic behind all that. See you next sunday !

[@BadmintonInsight]

Thank you so much! An interesting question for sure... To be honest, for us it is mostly around the cost (as we fund & organise all tournaments ourselves), so we look for tournaments that have cheapest flights, AirBnbs, no rental car needed etc!

I did not see any Whey protein in the vid, is there a specific reason to avoid Whey, or do you guys get sufficient protein without it?

We try to get sufficient through food but if we’ve had a particularly hard session we might have a protein shake / smoothie after the session 👍🏼

Really enjoying your content (on and off the court)! You two do such a great job at explaining and showing everything. 👍 I am using a shake which is about 50% proteins and 50% carbohydrates and I supplement it with a separate creatine shake after weight training. I noticed you are not taking any supplements beside multivitamins during the day. I thought creatine has been shown to be very effective. What do you think about it?

[@BadmintonInsight]

Thanks Stijn! 🤗 Greg has taken creatine a lot before in the past, he hasn't recently because of his concussion in 2021 but yeah he used to do it regularly 👍🏼

Do you know what sort of %age body fat you are? Also, when doing weight work, its recommended to take on board proteins within 30 mins of training. Bearing in mind the minor muscle repair going on after training, is it advisable to have protein as well in your post practice snack ?

[@BadmintonInsight]

Yes it is! Also I (Greg) am around 12% but hoping to get to 10% in the next few months! Sorry it took so late to reply to this and just to let you know Jim your payments on here will stop from today as we’re finally deleting this to get everyone on Patreon 😀

[@hathornegrundy4635]

Thanks alot, u guys are awesome

[@domloz3130]

You don’t need to snack to get energy. The food you eat doesn’t turn into energy for about 10 hours. Snacking is bad as it increases insulin. Few, bigger meals are better.

[@jshree_soni]

[@chrisyeo4028]

Quite surprised by your caffeine intake, I personally avoid coffee before a badminton game: I tends to get anxious and heart goes beating faster on court and losing coordination a little. Just admiration, I believe coffee is a great beverage if your body can withstand the side effect, because coffee is part of most people's life.

Thank God you guys cooked with chicken thighs and not breast! All the health freaks out there probably screaming at this video because you cooked with thighs instead of breast. I much prefer thighs as it has got alot more flavour and not as dried as breast. Imho, I'm not worried about the fat that I can see...it is the 'hidden' fat that I'm worried about eg fat in process food etc etc. Eating 'real' and 'whole' food is key.

I'm amazed that Greg only eats that and can still play at a very high level. Especially playing/training twice per day. I don't think I'd make it out the front door. 😯😅 The SIS drink is definitely a must though 👍. High5 works best for me. How tall is Greg (I'm guessing 5'8") and how much does he weigh (in Kg) please? I think I heard 72 or 74kg somewhere. I've struggled with what to eat, for years. Hopefully this might point me in the right direction.
