Introduction In sports, most athletes are required to have great explosive power, that is, the maximum power that athletes can show in a short period. Explosive power is often an important index to evaluate the physical capacity of athletes. Objective To analyze the influence of explosive training in lower limbs on the performance of badminton players. Methods Taking the 17 existing players of the Middle School B girls’ badminton team as the experimental object, the explosive power of the lower limbs of the 17 players were tested and compared before and after the experiment. Results The 30m run results showed that the fastest athletes completed in 4.39s, with most of them completing in 5S. The overall test results were higher than before the experiment. Conclusion After adopting the improved training method, the lower limbs of the team members improved in technical and tactical performance, raising the athletes’ fitness.
