What exercises and/or drills to do for volleyball alone and w/o a court?

Question

i need to get into shape for the vball season, i'm only jv level but boy is it competitive! i don't have a large space to exercise in, and i don't have a court either, but i really need to practice my skills and do conditioning to get into shape and beat the competition? any suggestions?

Answer 1

wall jumps, you stand faceing a wall and you read your arms up like your blocking do a bunch and you'll be able to jump higher. Also go outside and bump,then set it then spike . You could also put your garage door down and practice serving. Maby even get a few friends mark ten feet have someone set to you and practice your approach. you could even practice your aproch by your self.

Answer 2

I’m not volleyball expert but, I think you should exercise your legs and arms if you're going to practice without a court.

Answer 3

i have that same problem :]

find a nice empty wall to practice your bumps and sets. what i do, to practice my serve, is serve it lightly to the wall and then start bumping it and setting it as long as possible. also, stand in place and set the ball as long as you can. it helps with your control. in spiking in serving, wrist movement is very important to get spin on the ball. im not sure if you do it- but do you see when people bounce the ball before they serve? do that. hit the ball light once, then snap your wrist hard but keep it controled. that will help with your wrist muscles and improve it alot. and also for hitting, practice your approach! i had a few months off volleyball, so i practiced my approach before season started- and i immediately got my spike back! good luck.

Answer 4

get a ball and set and bump and serve against a wall

Answer 5

im in jv too and i know the tight space deal. i run around the block i live on, do wall sits in my bedroom and swim (a lot) in my pool. u dont need a court to do planks, situps or jumprope either. good luck in ur jv season

Answer 6

You could do some basic running for conditioning. Then, you could bump it and set towards a wall, or practice with a friend who's trying out as well.
