IMPORTANT
Please be careful with your equipment if you work out at home and check if there is enough space when you do the racketswings!

I am very lucky to have a high ceiling at home, so overheadshots are no problem. If you have not enough space above you, you can also do the overheadexercises on your knees (except the one where you give the racket between your legs) The effect will almost be the same or it can sometimes even help to focus more on the arm movement when the hip and legs cannot move.

Additional Information
If you have watched my Grip Tutorial you already know, that there are endless different variations of the grip and depending on the situation they can all be useful. Especially at the net you will probably feel, that the basic VGrip is not always the best option and a slight adjustment with the fingers can be necessary, always depending if you hit the shuttle more in front or more besides you. Especially on the backhand you can make good use of the thumb, to play underhandclears with a very short movement, so there you can try to turn the racket a little into direction of the thumb grip.
As mentioned in the video, on court you don’t need such a huge swing, to hit the shuttle to the baseline, but in the beginning I like to start with bigger and smoother movements and doing can also be very helpful for advanced players, that do not already have the perfect technique. Even though I play for many years I didn’t learn a smooth swing so there were a lot of edges and inefficient movements in my shots so these exercises also helped me to get better in that area. I always include some of these basic swings in my warm up, to get smooth in the arm before practice.
Service:
I didn’t talk about the service in the video, but the movement is very close to forehand underhand exercises we are doing. The major difference is, that you non dominant foot is in front and that you make the swing of the arm even bigger, so try that out if you want to work on your basic forehand service.
