Badminton

Seven-second rallies, three events a day.

Badminton is short, explosive rallies with about twice as much rest, and a tournament can stack singles, doubles and mixed into one long day. Helios plans the footwork, the multi-shuttle work and the match days, and scores each session on effort.

12cited badminton workouts and 0 plans, scored as Session-RPE.

What your coach sees

What a badminton coach needs. Exactly.

Effort-scored, rally by rally

Load is your rating times the minutes, so a three-match day lands as the load it was. The rests between rallies don't drag it down.

Footwork to the jump smash, each one sourced

Six-corner shadow footwork, net play, rear-court and doubles defence blocks, plus multi-shuttle, sprint-agility and repeated-sprint sessions taken from published badminton trials, with citations on every entry.

Singles and doubles kept apart

Singles and doubles have different rally profiles, so the conditioning is set for whichever you play. The multi-event tournament day gets rehearsed before you play one.

No invented numbers.

Load is session-RPE — your effort rating times the minutes — kept on its own channel and never converted into a TSS you didn't earn.
