    I play on the UK Division 1 team while my family and i are deployed overseas and this totally changed everything for me! I used to hit pretty hard but far away and now I can spike it down to the 10 meter line!!!! Thank you so much!!!!

    I have experienced that a very common mistake is that the hitter does not have his/her left foot in front and the right foot behind to be able to turn their hip from back to front to strengthen their hit...good videos btw, maybe more slow motion would be helpful in some scenes too.

    • @JumpVolleyball
      @JumpVolleyball  8 лет назад +63

      +biggestkkfan Thanks so much for your comment and more slow motions are definitely we can add because like you said it will help people to see the detail we want to emphasize

      @TheAmanor123 6 лет назад +2

      wut wut????? how do you even jump if your left foot is not in front( if you're not a lefty i mean) Like you legit can feel it's wrong when you jump that way. I think the most common mistake is the lack of practice thats it... The timing is really hard to learn for some other than that jumping with all your might left foot in front with your arm with the right motion should do the trick

    • @DatNguyen-ph2zr
      @DatNguyen-ph2zr 6 лет назад +5

      WTFGAFS do you know why it is hard to hit with their hand extended all the way and have goofy foot work? Because they have terrible coaches and trust me. There are a tons of those coaches out there....and now when you try to fix it. Its not easy.

    • @julianullrich5633
      @julianullrich5633 6 лет назад +4

      I think he means they jump with both feet at the same position mostly, it is a common mistake beginners do.

  • @jonathandaze1417
    @jonathandaze1417 7 лет назад +23

    good stuff! pitching is exactly like an aggressive attack mechanic...the body, core, and torque are the engines; the arm and wrist are simply the steering wheel. love the angles to elevate highest contact point rather than just remaining square and flat with shoulders. cheers!

  • @mayamottinger6411
    @mayamottinger6411 8 лет назад +1293

    When I hit, I always seem to hit the ball with the wrong part of my hand , like my fingertips or sometimes my wrist . How can I fix this?

    I wish my coach taught this to me. He always said "hit at the highest point of your reach", but never explained how that is done. Now I have chronic shoulder pain because I swung down vertically for years and years.

    Man! I was thinking about the strength of my hit yesterday and how could I improve it. I came to the same solution, about hitting the ball in more natural position for the shoulder, on the right side and not straight in the top (for the right handed). Today I typed it into youtube and the first video is telling me the same thing! Thank You so much, really nice video, I agree 100%! :)

  • @40beretta1

    This is seven years old....about how long I have been arguing with coaches to follow-thru "across the chest"... At our daughters H.S. I did an unscientific non-professional side by side hitting study, using the Boys baseball Speed gun... what ensued; When the girls followed thru across the chest...the ball was faster, and they said it felt like they were hitting the ball harder. One of the Girls (our daughter /DS /OH | 5'6" (yes; 5'6" OH (her vert. is amazing) follows through across the chest.. this also helps with quik line hits and doesn't hinder her ability to "go" short, to the 3M line. I implore you to break your young hitters habit of pulling the arm down her side. She is losing power and will have Scapula strain and shoulder issues...
    it is argued the Tennis server is the nearest to the VB attack swing... I think its a toss up from throwing a ball and Tennis. both, tennis and Base(soft)Ball finish across the chest...

  • @user-xz2wj5bx9o
    @user-xz2wj5bx9o Год назад +1

    I asked a collegiate coach a few years ago about swinging like this & he said it was wrong. He said the shoulders should be equal height & the non hitting shoulder should not dip lower than the hitting should. But clearly swinging this way allows for an even higher contact point, as well as involving the pectoral muscles to create additional power. As a volleyball coach myself, I teach your method all the time & the players continue to have amazing results.

  • @xboxana4394
    @xboxana4394 2 года назад

    Is more angle nessecarily better? I have can get my torso more than 60 degrees from upright, and I can hit harder from that angle advantage as well. Only downside is that I don't really know where to go from there, as I can only hit where I'm facing because anything else feels a weird grinding in my shoulder.

    Hey,
    First off your videos have helped me a lot to improve my technics this last couple of years, since there was no one really good enough to show me and my teammates how to do things properly, so thank you very much :)
    Secondly are there any tips to help me avoid high blocks except feints or my obvious blockouts? Because i am a wing spiker but am only 178cm tall so kinda hard to get over blocks, so i either speed up the tempo or block out or fake, but it gets old pretty fast in a game with their midle blocker. I got a pretty strong spike and if the block gets late i can spike the ball almost on the attack line but if the block is there it becomes really tough... Any advice?
    Thank you again and great job :)
