I reject this reality and substitute it with my own!

I played badminton for the first time when I was in 8th grade.
My friend from a different school incouraged me to play it
when I went to high school so that when it was his school
vrs mine we would be able to see each other at least two times every year.

Still playing and planning on joining this year but I need to work out,
my arm muscles are weak and I haven't improved
much since my lack of using wrists when I do play.

(it's all about the wrists, footwork and stamina in this sport!!)

OUCH.NO. pinch.gif
when i hold it, i keep my pointer finger up. it gives me a bit more power, but hurts in the long run.

That's.... not good. I did it once when I was a beginner and I like stunned by index finger for a few seconds. I never did it again. pinch.gif

At the end of the season last year, I started to receive pain in the area between my index finger and my thumb. I don't know exactly what it was, but it was a muscle of some sort of another I think? Supposedly, it was because I gripped my racket too tightly. Anyways, I started to pad/wrap my hand, and that really helped. I'm not sure if there's an easy solution like that for you. You kind of just have to change it by yourself, as difficult as that is. _dry.gif
