Answer 5

here are a list of excercises to get you into shape:

Answer 6

1.  Head to toe, intensive, overall body stretching -  Flexible body really helps in volleyball.

2.  Basic Strength Training - Squats, Calf raises,....

3.  Power Training - Jump Squats, Olympic Lifting(Power Clean, ...)

4.  Plyometrics - Box Jumps, Drop Jumps....etc.

Answer 7

i would do weight lifting that works on your technique of when you land from jumping safely and it helps your vertical jump as well and your arms to get stronger. also jogging and running can help your legs  get strong and wall sits will really help your legs, i say do wall sits twice a day for 1 minuet and 30 seconds!. hope i could help! : )

Answer 8

Here is what i do every year for about a month before volleyball starts.

do these following steps

1. lay down on your stomach

2. Cont to 3 and get up and run 20 yards then dive like you are going for a ball, stop and do 5 push ups.

3. Run back to where you started and repeat step 2

4. Do this until you puke.

5. Drink lots of water

6. Make sure you are wearing shoes ankle braces, nee socks, spandex shorts, If you don't have ankle braces don't worry, just make sure you have spandex, and high socks so when you dive constantly you will still have skin on your legs.

I am a boy and have been doing this every year before volleyball and trust me it helps so much

hope this helped!

skipping for swinging, push up on figures for setters
