Question Posted Wednesday October 4 2006, 12:11 am

so i play volleyball and lately I have noticed that my hits could be alot faster and harder if my swing was faster. I practice and practice hitting but i need a faster swing

what are some exercises or anything that will help improve the speed of my swing

somebody who plays volleyball should answer this, they would probably understand more.

ok so I had the same problem...
I went to the gym and this older volleyball player said she would help me, so she said that to make my swing faster, you have to wait longer.

so when the setter sets the ball, you should start your approach right when the ball is at it's highest point. Right when it starts coming down... that's the point you start doing your approach. That will make you faster and your hit more effective. If this doesnt make sense, just ask me again in my inbox.

I hope I helped!

I'VE ADDED MORE TO YOUR RESPONSE OF FEEDBACK-
ok so I think I get what you mean, your approach is correct speeed, its just that you're arm is so slow? maybe you dont have enough muscles. try doing some push-ups and weight lifting. When you hit, try bringing your elbow really far back and make sure your elbow is up high above your ear, swing with ALL of your strengh. here's an exercise-
find a wall, now hit the volleyball into the ground but it has to hit the wall. Then when it hits the wall, it shouldn't hit the floor... it should come right back at you. Then when it comes back at you, hit it down into the floor again, then from the floor to the wall... the wall to you, then repeat.

I hope this helps!
