Off - On

During training, I can play and put in the shots and move quick...



During games and tournaments(off-training), i tend to make a lot of mistakes slow movement speed....



I wonder what is happening to me...



As what Jeeva said, good in training but bad during tournament isn't good...



I have to find the problem....

Pissed off =(

Went for training today...



My smashes were really bad, and my doubles is now going downhill...i guess i can't really continue playing doubles....



My smashes were so off u know when there's even chance to kill, I just MISSED it....



I wanted to throw my racquet on the floor, but i controlled my temper(there were too many people and coaches are there)



Please do not haunt me anymore, "Inconsistency", i beg you for once....please don't haunt me....

Impact Arc Force 10


















Racquet Model: Impact Arc Force 10

Review of the racquet: Overall the racquet is very evenly balanced, but slightly heavy at the head, good for players that are offensive, they will surely love this racquet.

Training 8/2/09

Woke up 6:30 am, had some fruit juice and few pieces of biscuit with a packet of milk, i packed up my badminton bag, lifted it and off i go for training...



Reached training at 7:40 am...I walked into the hall with excitement to see who attend training today...I opened the door and saw many players training intensively in the court, some doing footwork shadows, some jogging around the hall...I saw Wern Lin jogging all by herself over there and i waved at her =)



I sat down on the floor and put down my bag on the floor, took up my badminton shoes from my shoes compartment and switched my footgear into badminton shoes. Wern Lin came over and asked me to go for jogging...I started my jogging and added some sprints in it for 10 rounds...before i started jogging, i went to greet my coaches....



I continued doing footwork shadows and I did each different shadows in 3 sets....Holding the squash racquet, i tried to swing it as hard as possible and Coach Zul was watching over us when he was looking around the hall to assist players in need....



Wern lin and I continued doing wall drilling and Coach Doni asked us to get into court and stroke...After stroking for a moment, Coach Doni divided us into pair and we played Doubles. I partnered Wern Lin and we started training...



We played 3 sets of doubles, 11 points...we lost all 3 games...we had break for a short while and immediately Coach Doni asked us to do cross court control...and we did 5 sets of it...and we had break for a while...Coach Doni then divided us into pairs again and we played doubles again, 7 points, the loser has to do 5 hinding jumps...and we played 3 sets....after that, we had sprinting sessions and physical....



It was 10:00am and i went out to chill at the player's lounge...chit-chated with some of the players and had some jokes...Went in and then resumed training with Coach Zul and Wern Lin...he asked us to take our squash racquets and do shuttle drills with it...we did 5 sets of 4 corners, 5 sets of smashes and net shots, 5 sets of lifting and smash at the baseline and 5 sets of smash cross court and tap with badminton racquet....



After finishing the shuttle drill section, Coach Zul dismissed us by asking us to do sprintings and physical another time....



Switched back into my slippers and my clothes...went to say goodbye with all my coaches and then i opened the door of the hall and left....



After doing shuttle drills with squash racquet, i can feel the sudden increase of strength in my smashes....i guess i should continue my physical routine everyday...



Chao =D

Shattered

Had 2 matches with Andy:


First match: lost 11-21, 15-21


Second match: lost 21-10, 20-22, 13-21


Made many mistakes at the net, couldn't smash steeply and the court was slippery...freaked out...



Sorry Coach Misbun, Coach Rahman, Coach Zul and Coach Doni...i will put extra effort during training to rectify my mistakes


During the first game, broke my racquet...i saw it shattered and fell....and i hold my tears...
