Answer 2

jog at least thirty minutes a day

practice your overhand serve/ and your spike

practice bumping to yourself

Answer 3

one of the best ways to condition is to play volleyball. it is best if you play on a sand court, it is harder to move in sand, so you get more of a workout. doing drills in practice that simulate a long rally helps because it gets you conditioned to the long rallies. try and workout all of your muscles. swimming laps can help here. swim as hard as you can back and forth for 10 laps really works out all of your muscles so you will be stronger and in better shape. ride your bike; it is fun and strengthens your legs. if you have a stationary bike, use that instead and stay in the seat. ride for five minutes at a time. good luck with your conditioning.

Answer 6

For volleyball you need strong arms and need to be able to dive and move quickly without hurting yourself.

there are a couple of exercise's that will greatly help you:

-Try running a little each day, gradually getting longer distances. It will help you become healthier and also help your stamina. You will need this to keep you moving on the court.

-Pushups!!! Strengthen your arms, youll need it to serve and bumb and spike. It helps a lot.

- And practice a LOT. Just keep practicing, soon enough you'll be playing like a pro:)
