these days i only play 1 long session (5hrs from 6 to 11 pm) per week. i know i know............im like an ommelete around 10:30pm basically 1 lost about 1.5 to 2 kgs every session i did. So for those who wants to loose some weight, forget all about those expensive program they are useless compare to badminton. In fact i have never weight more than 74kg (my height is 178) all my life and i also never watch what i eat, i eat anything i want whenever i want and how much i want
5 hrs session is pretty good even thought you turn into an omelette . For me, I can only do 3 hrs max and I am dead :crying: As for weight lost, I can never keep those weight off. I probably lose a pound after playing. But after dinner, those weight comes back . However, I did go from 174lb to 170lb mostly because of eating habit (I think). I have to agree, however, badminton is far better than a gym membership. I get to sweat and a whole lots of exercise, plus it is a whole lot more fun than riding a stationary treadmills or elliptical machine
My schedule looks like this: Tuesday: 1h30 (giving youth training) Wednesday: 2h30 Thursday: 1h (giving youth training) Friday: 3h ( Training ) Sunday: 5h (2h in the morning, 3h in the afternoon) Last year I only played once / week, but now I am getting better every week.
Previously is once in a week. But because of busy schedule, now has been reduced to about once in every 2-3 weeks. Miss the atmosphere where all buddies gather and play badminton together... http://www.badmintonclip.blogspot.com/

Any more room for new recruits? Hi Azabaz, I am from Ipoh too and since me and my girlfriend (chinese) have been looking for a group to join also, is there anymore room for new recruits? where do you play?
Haha, what an astute observation. Their partners will go crazy for being alienated for being left alone a whole week.
