3 Reasons Why Volleyball Players Need Strength and Conditioning
A volleyball-specific strength and conditioning program can optimize a player’s performance on the court. Whether athletes are still developing or competing at the highest level, spending time in the weight room building a strength foundation can be the difference between winning and losing a game.
Here are three key reasons why volleyball coaches should incorporate strength training in their program.
#1 Strength and Power
Volleyball is a sport dominated by strength and power. Players need power in their legs to get high in the air and strength in their upper body to spike, block, and dig balls. Lifting weights stimulates muscle fibers to grow, which allows athletes to produce more force at faster rates. Thus, as players get stronger their explosive power also heightens on the court. Strengthening volleyball-specific muscles ensures that athletes are able to reach their maximum performance potential.
#2 Jumping and Agility
Volleyball requires explosive jumps and rapid changes in direction. The ability to jump high is treasured among volleyball players because of the importance for spiking the ball as well as defending spikes from opponents. Vertical jumping is all about ground force production, core stability, and quick hips. In order for players to improve vertical jumps, they must spend time in the weight room doing dead-lifts, squats, and other exercises that strengthen leg and hip muscles.
#3 Injury Prevention and Flexibility
Not only do volleyball players need to be skilled, strong, and powerful, they also need to be healthy. Volleyball is a high-impact sport and with all the jumping, landing, cutting, and planting, an athlete’s body can take a beating. The muscles, tendons, and ligaments surrounding joints help protect from injury, but strenuous volleyball movements can cause these joints to temporarily weaken.
