    those are some really good sites

    Good Luck!


  2. It's funny how no one mentioned abs. Abs are essential in nearly every sport whether you realize it or not. You do rotate your upper body when you hit the ball.

    It's also important to work your legs for running after those balls and your chest for pure smacking power.

  3. biceps and triceps

  4. your biceps duh

  5. For handball, the entire body is used. But concentrate on your thighs and upper body strength. Handball requires much squatting and quick lunges and the upper body strength helps your sidearm smashes

  6. well it is really limitless but in my opinion its all about the reflects and skill you must master. you must also be very quick in speed. as far as working out definately work on your forearms and legs. you should also work on your lower and upper back to have a really nice swing. remember tho skill is key in the game of handball . those killers and rollers are priceless whether ur in shape or not once you master these your good to go buddy

  7. Your biceps mostly but theighs and leg muscles are key in your swing speed.  best answer please :)

  8. everyone has already mentioned what you should be working on.  follow their great advice and you should be in top form to play.

    good luck!!!

  9. Triceps and pectorals. If you look at the action involved the swinging of the arm forward is the pectoral muscles and the pulling of the upper arm back to get into position is the triceps. You can tell this from where you ache after playing. Biceps are less important.

    High skill (through practice) and low power is more effective than brute force however...

  10. Your hand dummie.
