Badminton uses the muscles of the shoulders, upper arms and forearms when swinging the upper limbs. Kicking, striding, jumping and other forward and backward footwork movements can exercise the large muscle groups of buttocks, thighs and calves. The muscles of abdomen, waist and back involved in turning make lean body gain weight and make the body get rid of excess fat.

As long as the intensity and time of exercise are reasonably controlled and the legs are properly stretched and massaged after exercise, there is no need to worry about causing muscle legs. When playing badminton, the legs will continue to move flexibly, not only burning fat, but also helping to stretch and shape the legs.

Extended data

Badminton is a full-body exercise, which can slim down to all parts of the body.

Whether it is a regular badminton match or a general fitness activity, we should constantly move, jump, turn and swing on the court, and reasonably use various hitting techniques and footwork to hit the ball back and forth on the court, thus increasing the strength of upper limbs, lower limbs and waist muscles, speeding up the whole body blood circulation of exercisers and enhancing the functions of cardiovascular system and respiratory system.
