The control group (CG) performs the badminton program training. (n = 10, age: 16.60±1.17 years; body weight = 53.98±3.09 kg; body height = 164.20±3.32 cm; fat = 23.52±2.36 percent; muscle mass Conclusion: the SAT at 6 - 8 inches in height using 125 - 140 bpm has a beneficial effect on balance, which allows athletes to be more efficient in moving quickly in a short training period without losing balance.
