Answer 1

Our school just got done with volleyball season about three weeks ago too. we run a mile or two and we jump and try to touch five to ten inches taller than our hieght and crunches and weight lifting. hope it helps

Answer 2

lunges, squats, squat jumps, chair sit against the wall, suicides, jogging, push ups

thats the kind of stuff we did at my practices

Answer 3

First, get down to the gym and run about 2 miles, then bike for about 10 minutes to cool down a bit. Afterward, do some lifting with a partner spotting of course. Then do crunches and any other kind of abwork you know to do. Try to do this routine often.

For volleyball, just get a partner and go down to the YMCA with a volleyball and pepper. Peppering is great for get your ball control back in order.

Hope this helps!

Answer 4

MY SCHOL SEASON JUST ENDED AS WELL BUT MY CLUB SEASON STARTED LAST WEEK AND THEY ARE HAVING US JUMP AND BALANCE ALOT...

YOU SHOULD GO TO THE GYM AND USE THOSE BOSU BALLS TO BALANCE AND DO TEN SETS OF 30 SECOND SQUATS

YOU CAN ALSO DO VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL JUMPS

LIFT TEN OR FIVE POUND WEIGHTS AND THEN YOU CAN SLOWLY START LIFTING HEAVIER BTU YOU DONT WANT TO OVER WORK YOUR ARMS

YOU SHOULD STILL BE PRACTICING YOUR APPROACH AND DOING ABOUT 30 A NIGHT AND SHUFFLING TO A LINE AND BACK EVERY DAY FOR A BOUT 5 MINUTES.

ALSO DO A LOT OF AB WORK LIKE CRUNCHES VSITS, PUSH UPS, AND SUPER MANS

RUN SPRINTS TO A LINE AND BACK TOUCHING TH ELINE WITH BOTH HANDS EVERYTIME

HOPE I HELPED

Answer 5

if youre too lazy to go to the gym... get some weights and do curls and slowly practice spiking with it (without jumping). Do push ups and crunches. Do jumping lunges and ski jumps (side to side and then front to back). Take a dumbell in one hand and roll your wrist then side to side and front to back... this helps me snap my wrist harder and stronger (especially for those tips). If you have a volleyball in your house pass the ball to your self with out moving your feet about 100 times STRAIGHT. (i did this last night and it really helps you improve control and work out your thighs and shoulders) the trick is to have a nice flat platform and use your legs to bump the ball  instead of swinging your arms. If your house is echoey and your parents are getting annoyed try wearing a sweat shirt to muffle the sound and dont bounce the ball up so high, just about a foot high. Practice setting the ball to your self 50 times (it tends to hurt your shoulders for a while if your shoulders arent strong)... and again dont set it up high.. just about a foot. If it's nice outside try practicing out instead of inside so you can make about as much noise as you want.

Answer 6

Do sit ups so you can stay in shape,and lose weight to jump higher lol,you should lift weight so spike and serve stronger

don't exaggerate or you wont grow and wont be able to spike it we ran allot so you can move in the games we also did allot of lunges and squats.Run sprints and do push ups.

Answer 7

we go to our school's weight room. i mean basically our coaches kick our butt in offseason too.

we do crunching and balance sessions + weightlifting on mondays and thursdays, and tuesdays and fridays are our cardio days. we have to run and jump rope and such.

basically go to the gym. run if you can. crunch and do ab work daily. jump rope. get your heart going. it keeps us fit, i'll tell ya.
