Hi, I’m Sara and I’m 17, almost 18, and I feel like volleyball has my heart. In the last year I started to take seriously this sport and I regret not doing do a long time ago. I feel behind my teammates and I want to do better, I want to feel the results when I play.

I feel like teaching helped me realize how many things we forget while playing: • the importance of the details, like the position of your hips, hands, and feet, the will reflect how you play. • sometime, slowing down is key to improve your skill. If you’re not understanding what are you doing, you will never remember it. • some kids are born with talent, but that doesn’t mean their better. Obsession can beat talent. • attitude will improve your game. If you start without confidence, you will never use your power at 100% • NEVER FORGET WHY YOU STARTED: I see so many kids already bored of the sport, bored of always doing the same thing. I know sometimes coaches can bring you down or making you lose the joy, but it’s important to fight for it, or you’ll never improve. What do you think?

Been working on this jump program for abt 7 weeks aswell as strength and conditioning at training, im 6'3 and weight close to 100 kgs so jumping and ik for some of you not being super light would effect your jump so just wanted to say you all got this, my vert has increased from 26-30 inches in the last 7 weeks which is massive for me as that is almost a ball higher. Ive also just moved to playing opposite which has allowed me to take advantage of my 330 spike height. I am having issues with being achy in my upper back and shoulders, does anyone have any good stretches i could give a try?

i’m 15 and live in IL i have absolutely no idea how to train vertical wise and everyone says not to overwork my legs, so my question is if i already have practice like 3 days a week how often should i do jump-related workouts?
