Upon looking back, I have realized I really needed to work more on my lower body strength. This is particularly so that I can achieve a higher contact point when doing a smash next to the net. Since I am not that tall, this will allow more room for flexibility when aiming as I am mid-air. As of now, I am pretty much only barely hitting it down onto the court, and the majority of my shots end up going off the court as I keep hitting it too high up rather than hitting the ball down. Hence, moving forward, I think I need to work on my leg strength, particulary my quads and calf if I want to achieve a higher jump. This also brings me into thinking I need more hip strength as that will not only assist me in jumping higher but also achieve more stability with overall movement around the court as I do find myself sometimes off balance and having to lean on my stronger right leg.
