Volleyball Training Plan
Volleyball Training Plan
Ever wonder what it takes to be successful volleyball player? It takes a lot of hard work and
determination. The training can get intense and if done incorrectly, could ruin your chances of
ever making a career out of the sport.
Physiological Aspect
Injury Prevention
Everyone knows that along with success come a couple road blocks. Injuries unfortunately
aren't something that we plan for, but we can at least help prevent some injuries from
happening.
Warm-Up
Do a light 5-minute warm-up to get the blood circulating and tissues of the body ready for the
workout. Do this each day before the workout begins.
