Imagine yourself tipping over the net and serving the ball. All this while hearing the chants of the crowd. If you want to learn how to jump higher in volleyball then you must have a drive for it.

Jumping higher in volleyball will help you serve better, thus making you an asset for your team and teammates. Whats different and cool about volleyball is that its a raw game, you don’t need much tools to play it well. But you do need good skills to be a great player. What’s great is that you can learn the skills that will make you a champ.

I will show an exercise that will show results in 8 weeks. Your jump will sky-rocket, you’ll be mistaken for superman (or women).

Before we start the exercise we need to outline something you need to do to maximize your results:

1. Drink lots of water: Water will support you, exercising will dehydrate you. So drinking good amount of water will help restore your balance. Don’t forget to add a pinch of salt to your water before you drink it, this will help you balance out.
2. Eat good amount of protein and veggies: Why should you eat lost of protein and veggies? You’re replenishing your muscle to make it stronger and thus jump higher. So don’t cut short on those two things.
3. Wear the right gear: wearing the right gear protects you, this exercise might cause stress to your muscles, so using a carpet or a padded insole in shoes will reduce the stress levels on your body.
4. Rest so you can strengthen your muscle: you know why resting works? Because you give enough time for your muscle to build its self again but stronger. So resting is actually a part of exercising. So exercise and rest and then you will see a difference.

now lets get to exercising shall we: The ankle hop its simple, but very effective
