A Healthy Sport: 5 Ways Playing Badminton Benefits Your Physical Health

Are you looking for a new sport to engage in? Many organized sports take a toll on your body, but here’s how Badminton benefits your health.

You’ve likely heard how beneficial exercising for 30 minutes just three times a week can be. And while this isn’t an extreme amount of time, this regimen comes with one serious downfall — exercise is super dull.

Strapping your self to an elliptical for a half an hour, while good for you, is about as much fun as watching paint dry. Fortunately, there is a better way to clock in a little exercise that’s a lot more entertaining.

Some organized sports, such as rugby, can be a little too rough on your body. But, there are plenty of activities that can help you tone up without destroying your joints. And, badminton is one of those sports.

Here are five of the most significant badminton benefits you could enjoy if you pick up a racket.

1. Improve Your Reflexes

A badminton shuttlecock is as fast as it is small, which means you’ll need some pretty quick reflexes to keep up with it.

Even if you don’t have quick reflexes now, by playing badminton a few times every week, you’ll soon find yourself able to keep up with the tiny projectile.

On top of that, when you take up badminton, you’ll notice an improvement in your reflexes off the court too. And, lightning fast reflexes can always come in handy, no matter what who you are.

2. Get Your Cardio in

You never know where the shuttlecock is going to land, and odds are it’s not heading anywhere near where you’re standing.

While it may not seem like it, you can cover a lot of ground while playing badminton. And, all that running across the court is a fantastic way to sneak in a cardio workout without the monotony of jogging or of walking.

3. Build up Your Muscles

While cardio is important, weight training can keep your muscles working long after you’ve left the gym. That said, standard weightlifting and training can be a little intimidating and just as boring as cardio.

Badminton is a fantastic way to work out your muscles in a gentle but effective way all while having fun.

Also, unlike standard weightlifting, you’re using your muscles in a very natural way. Which, means badminton can help build up muscles around your joints more effectively, and cut back on any joint pain you may have.

4. It’s Heart Healthy!

Believe it or not, badminton is one of the British Heart Foundation’s most highly recommended activities.

Badminton is a low-impact but fast-paced sport, which means that it’s pretty well suited for everyone no matter their physical shape.

5. Boost Your Mood

Finally, you can’t play badminton alone — You need at least two for this tango.

Badminton is a very social sport, and we are naturally very social creatures. Whether you play with friends or join a club, every time you step on the court you’re going to have to interact with someone. Which, is very good for your mental health.

In addition to the social side of badminton, studies show that regular exercise can also help improve your mood. Exercise can even help manage certain mental health disorders like depression.

The Best Badminton Benefits

Badminton may not seem like the most exciting sport out there. But, it’s hard to ignore all the health benefits that come with picking up a racket.

Now that you know a few badminton benefits, it’s time to get out there and hit the court!
