Anyone know of anyone who teaches volleyball in fayette county in georgia?

You can to wall jumps where you literally face a wall and jump like you are blocking. try doing this for like two minutes straight it is difficult but will increase your vertical and help you in blocking. You can also do leg lifts. Any kind of excercise that will increase the strength of your calf muscles would be good. Good luck!

Work on your abs. That is the main thing you use. Also do sprints, wall jumps, push ups, and if you have a basketball goal then try rim jumps. Set the goal as high as it goes and jump toach the rim and keep doing them for as long as you can. This will help your legs get stronger and your jumps get higher

The most thing that i would say would probably run A LOT. and practice hitting the ball over something. also, work on your abs. That is the main thing you use. Also do sprints, wall jumps, push ups, and if you have a basketball goal then try rim jumps. Set the goal as high as it goes and jump touch the rim and keep doing them for as long as you can. This will help your legs get stronger and your jumps get higher. you need to be able to jump very high so, maybe jumping on a trampoline might help. i play volleyball, and it helps a lot!!
