Relationships between racket arm joint moments and racket head speed during the badminton jump smash performed by elite male Malaysian players

Three-dimensional position data of nineteen elite male Malaysian badminton players performing a series of maximal jump smashes were collected using a motion capture system. A `resultant moments' inverse dynamics analysis was performed on the racket arm joints (shoulder, elbow and wrist). Relati...

The correlational analysis revealed that a larger shoulder internal rotation moment (r = 0.737), backwards shoulder plane of elevation moment (r = 0.614) and wrist extension moment (r = -0.564) were associated with greater racket head centre speed at racket-shuttlecock contact.
