YONEX Muscle Power 29 Carbon Graphite Badminton Racquet Black/White 85g 30lbs

Intermediate Badminton Racquet

The YONEX Muscle Power 29 is a carbon graphite badminton racquet designed for intermediate players. It weighs 85 grams and features an even balance point for versatile performance. The frame uses Muscle Power construction to unite the string and frame through rounded archways. A built-in T-Joint adds stability on impact while the isometric head shape enlarges the sweet spot for more consistent contact.

30lbs Maximum String Tension

This racquet supports a maximum string tension of 30lbs, which sets the upper limit for stringing stiffness. Higher tensions increase control but reduce the trampoline effect that generates easy power. The single-pass grommet pattern reduces string stress at the holes, helping the string bed hold tension longer. Players who prefer tensions above 30lbs will need a different frame rated for higher loads.

95.5 sq/in Head and 85g Weight

The mid-plus head measures 95.5 square inches, providing a forgiving hitting area that suits developing technique. At 85 grams the racquet is light enough for quick defensive reactions and fast net exchanges. The G4 grip measures 3.5 inches and fits average adult hands without extra overgrip bulk. Players seeking a heavier, head-heavy frame for maximum smash momentum will find this model too light for that purpose.
