Off-Season - Never!
Just because the volleyball season is over, don't let your "shape" go to waste. There are many off season activities to keep you in "your game."
1. Play in at least one league all of the time.
2. Do not play only indoor volleyball. If you spend most of your time playing inside, try and get involved in an outdoor league or beach volleyball.
3. Play another sport (I suggest soccer to keep you in shape).
4. Begin a running schedule, if you do not have one already. Again, soccer will help.
5. 2 key exercises to do are running at least 8 – 10 miles a week and getting involved in a jumping program or plyometrics.
As the soccer coach, I know I am biased, however getting involved in other sports is good because it will help you develop muscles that you may not use during the volleyball season.
Here's looking at a great upcoming year (it will be here before you know it!)
