|Ep. 75| Volleyball Training in the Off-Season Part 1
If you are a volleyball player check this podcast episode out...
Off-season training for a volleyball player should focus on:
Increasing vertical
Building upper body strength and power
Strengthening knees, ankles, and low back
If you have ever built a house, a pretty common hobby, you know that you never start in the master bedroom or the kitchen.
The same thing goes for a volleyball player's number one goal which is to increase their vertical.
Every athlete is a bit different, but it is pretty common to feel banged up after the season.
The "fix" is not to sit around and not do athletic stuff until club season, which can actually make things worse. The answer is not also to test your 1 rm and crush yourself in the weight room.
The goal for your first 2-4 weeks of training after the volleyball season is to:
Layer on simple and basic strength movements
Strengthen your tendons around your knees and ankles
Build back to capacity to jump high but over and over again
Doing the above will allow the athlete to be physically prepared to train hard deeper into the off-season.
Tune into the latest podcast episode as I go into what phase 1 for our volleyball players looks like.
Listen now.
