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!!!!
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!
My goodness,, THANK YOU I feel so hyped for getting my overhand serve finally right, and I never really used my shoulders and upper body the right way. This video really helped, again, thank you SO much!
I have experienced that shoulder injury because I did what this video shows the common mistake. This video helps me a lot ! Hope I can see more videos about common mistake hitting motion!
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.
+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
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
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.
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.
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.
train your legs, abs, and shoulders...there are a lot of video workout out there to train for vertical. Spend lots of time at the gym ;) and reap the benefit at the court comes playing time, it is a lot of fun.
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...
Thank you for your wonderful Volleyball tip videos especially for a beginner like me in Volleyball. Keep up making more videos like this, it really helps us.
+Dwain Pablacio Thanks. Your feedback is much appreciated. I am running out of time to do these videos so comments like these make me want to keep pushing to get them done.
thank you sir, your videos are really helpful for me to correcting my mistakes especially while hitting the ball or spiking, when i started playing i had shoulder pain while hitting harder but your videos really helped me to correct that mistake very well. if you can post more videos on spiking section that would be more helpful.
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%! :)
Great tip bro! My 12 yr old daughter makes this exact mistake & I couldn't figure this out on my own. 4yr old video but still helped me help her. Thanks man
+naqib zulkifli Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. I will think of a way I can make a video on that. In the meanwhile, watch this one, it might offer you some help th-cam.com/video/xksBm0b0xR4/w-d-xo.html
Hi, thank you so much for you tips. I am a setter in a high school level volleyball team and I'm having a hard time understanding how to give hand signals to my hitters. Can you please talk about them in the future video?
i want to learn how to "dive", howto make a "fish", cause always when i try hurt my knees or my tummy, I try to put my legs on the air, but im think im a little bit scary of do it again and hurt me again,you have some tips to me? some tips to start make it corrects?!
Since you asked for suggestions in the video, I'd like to make one. I never played competitive volleyball growing up; no school, no club, pretty much nothing but backyard stuff during BBQ's and the like. I have been playing in coed leagues for the last few years and have a mean vertical according to my teammates. My mechanics have all been learned while playing. I really would love to know what drills or lone workouts somebody like me should begin doing to improve. What would you teach someone who needs to unlearn incorrect form?
+Fisticuffs Thanks for the suggestion. Breaking bad habits is very hard. When you play, you are focused on reading the play, reading the trajectory of the ball, getting your body behind the ball, preparing your arms to contact the ball...there is not a lot of room for thinking about you technique. When I was young, I fixed my hitting approach by doing it all the time and everywhere. I would do it walking to school, in my house (reaching for the ceiling with my elbow), as soon as I walked into the gym. I think that's the way to go. Think about what the ideal approach and jumping technique is and then simplify it into 3 cues that are super easy to remember. Then do as many approaches as you can while repeating those 3 cues in your head. You will be slow at first but the more you go, the faster you do your approach. You don't always have to jump 100% but the approach speed should be as fast as the space allows. Repeat, repeat, repeat...there is no secret...just repeat the right stuff though ;-)
Omg thank you I will definitely try this out in currently in tryouts and it’s been good so far i just wanted to start hitting down and fast thanks again
On a float serve you actually want to contact the ball a little lower, but further out in front of you. Curl your fingers back so you contact it with as flat a palm as possible. Toss with two hands, no spin, about 1-2' above the height of your head and pick a spot on the ball you want to contact. For instance, you can use the nozzle where you'd insert a needle. Lastly, don't follow through with a wrist snap or it won't float properly, you have to kind of pop it and stop the follow through on contact. Done properly, the float serve can dance all of over place and even fall out of the air.
As a beginner I keep spiking put of the court ! 🤔only way is if I consciously just hit with my finger then the hand .....am.I making contact too low on the ball ?
What is something I can do at home and in practice that will really get my body to adapt to this form? I picked up the bad habit you showed in this video and have been trying to correct it for so long but for some reason can't figure it out.
+Melissa Hill That is a good question and a tough one to answer in writing. I think what I will do is make a video on a couple of exercises people can do because I got it a lot. I'll get on it soon enough. For now, what I suggest is to take an elastic band and tie it to a post at your shoulder level. Grab the elastic band with your hitting hand and face away from where it is attached. Get into your armed position with your hitting arm higher and behind you. If it is your right hand, your right shoulder should be tipped down a bit (you do that by squeezing your abs on your right side) and behind you. Initiate your hitting motion by rotating your shoulders and squeezing your abs on your left side, this should tip your left shoulder down so that at the point of contact, when your hand is above and in front of your head, your left shoulder is below the right one. That's the position you want. Repeat the motion slowly with an elastic band until your core muscle get used to the type of abdominal contraction that is required to produce that movement. I hope that helps. Again, it's hard to explain by writing but I'll do my best to put out a how-to video on some exercises to do. Thanks for your question and good luck with your volleyball.
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.
i am a 5'9 outside hitter and i find that as the game progresses i tend to get blocked more so i tried quicks but my coah told me not to try them but i still want to learn how to hit them could you make a video for hitting shoots
I play varsity volleyball in high school I've played against people your height and the answer is yes but it is going to take a lot of hard work and a long time to reach the jumping height that you need
Hi! I am obsessed with volleyball! I want to go to the Olympics eventually, I have quite a small back yard and a trampoline. I was wondering if there was a way I could work on my technique etc, with limited space. Please help! I want to be better.
+Megan K Thanks for your comment! I can see that you are very passionate with volleyball and maybe this video can help (th-cam.com/video/-Lz6h3sgUj4/w-d-xo.html). You can also do chinese chopsticks with your arms or check this video for good exercises (th-cam.com/video/O5sPxlt2pOo/w-d-xo.html)
Any tips? On approach when jumping too early whe youre gonna spike, because i usually jump early maybe because im always excited to form my spike form, Or not looking the ball at all, because i eas focused on spiking i guess
Hi, I'm having trouble with hitting the ball down. My arm swing is right but I think it's something to do with my hands. Could you do a video on just hands? Should I keep them open? How should I curl them?
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 :)
+Daphne P Merci pour ton commentaire. Il y a des vidéos parmi mes premières qui parlent de déplacement, ça pourrait t'aider. Je prends note de ta question par contre et je vais voir ce que je peux faire comme vidéo là-dessus. En attendant, je te réfère à mon ami Nicolas qui a une chaîne d'entraînement physique et qui a écris un livre sur l'entraînement des joueurs de volleyball. Regarde dans ses plus vieilles vidéos et tu vas trouver quelques exercices pour améliorer le jeu de pieds et la vitesse. th-cam.com/users/FonctionsOptimum J'espère que ça va t'aider
My spiking arm will always stay unextended which makes the ball to hit very late leads to failure of spike Tel me some drills which will help me to extend my arm peoperly to its full length and also to swing the arm properly The contact point is not achieved i hit the ball when it gets lower leads to hitting it to the net How to contact the ball at the contact point? Please help
I've been hitting straight up and everytime I try to spike (Never actually had a good hit yet) When I come down, my shoulder is heading, specifically that bone.. So ima start opening up my arms and hitting it at a arched angle now
I don't think it's so much a "lean" by itself. The lean is a result of the torque which generates power. Hips & shoulder rotation into the ball as you described in the baseball throw example.
thank you for your great compliments. i learned and get myself coached on how to judge the ball. but today i wanted to know how to improve my footwork for spiking, while the balls are thrown in different position.
Hi Natshok, if you look at our latest video where Ben is passing a short serve and has to transition to hitting, you will see that he adjusts really fast to where to set is going and goes into the ball. A lot of players, will make their normal approach outside the court even when the setter is backing up, but in those types of situations, you have to make sure that you are reading the play and most importantly are ready for anything. The key ingredient is your last step and making sure you are actually going towards the ball. If you get caught hitting the ball over your head or left of your body, you might be leaving too fast which makes it hard to adjust afterwards. Hope this helps
Hello 👋 When I wanna keep my self ready for spiking I jump but I scare from powerful hit, because I think it would hit the net Could you please help me?
I wanted to know how one could spike on his highest touch I do spike but on the contact of the hand and the ball my arm is leaned somehow which makes it too easy to block I thought if one could make a strong overspike it would be easier
Whatever spike I do.. ball is rolling nice enough but still it's falling at the boundary line , I am not able to spike steep down on 3m line. I am 6.3"
I had low back problem because of bending like you showed in video and my friend also still have it because he is bending to much it looks like u are cracking a biscuit when he needs to hit the ball so overbending is fatal trust me we could both end up almost with losing feeling in both legs
Hey if you see this I'm 5'8" and I have a 25 inch vertical, I play outside hitter I'm really good at hitting but sometimes I forget to flick my wrist to hit the ball down any tips
The power tip is super effective from the middle. Have you been working on it? How is it going for you? I’ll see if I can do a video about that, I’m working on some new tips. Stay tuned
I though my mistake during hit the ball is use my shoulder, jUst realised after watching ur vid.. Could you tell me how to increase the speed on hit the ball, please? Thank you
+Ajay Salla Thanks for your comment. As for your question, there are a lot of good videos on youtube for that. I like talking about the technique more. Check out this video I made before, it might help you th-cam.com/video/Ea1_02seb9E/w-d-xo.html
I find myself having trouble knowing how to step when I go to serve. I get all wobbly then the timing is off so it doesn't work, in what way can I practice to fix this?
My problem is that when I go to block I always arrive late. even if i arrive first, i always put my hand out i can't position my hand very well. how can i improve??
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?
Used to be my problem too. For me it was really about routine and hitting many many balls.
Make sure to practice timing
Maya Mottinger focus on the ball and fix timing
Timing!

1. body tilt to side
2. core engage not just shoulder down
3. pec stretch and engagement
I'm pretty new to volleyball and I really want catch up with my team. Your tips are very helpful, thanks!
Wow that was SO HELPFUL! Last week my bust suddenly hurt after i hit the ball - now i know why!!!! Gonna focus on this tonight in my practice
3:27 I had to look twice, I thought that was my coach for a second😭
Would love to see a drill or way to transition players to this motion. It is hard to break old habits.
This. This is helpful. Thank you so much!
Thank you for watching and thanks for your comment!
I'm 18 and started playing volleyball a month ago. I also live in South Africa, your videos has been a lot of help to me plz keep up the good work💯💯💯
Thanks. I noticed my body was straight whenever I got a hit and it definitely hurt my shoulder.
Thank you so much.
This is what I was trying to figure out. solved my shoulder pain and gave more power in my hitting

Life changing tip for me😍 i was struggling with my constant shoulder injuries. It was wrong technique
I’ve been teaching my 11/12yo girls this from the start. The hard part is to get the other coaches to understand! ✌🏼🇺🇸

Well done. Exactly the same with the tennis serve. In Tennis we call it Shoulder over Shoulder!
Literally just sitting down you can try swinging over head and at an angle like this guy says and its a huge difference , amazing explanation
Great tip bro! My 12 yr old daughter makes this exact mistake & I couldn't figure this out on my own. 4yr old video but still helped me help her. Thanks man

I hope I can spike like those tall guys hahahaa!
Thank you!
this some hinata shit right here......
Rydho Irawan he’s even 5’3 himself
Good explanation. It is a common mistake to hit the ball over the shoulder instead of hitting the ball accross the body.
Since you asked for suggestions in the video, I'd like to make one. I never played competitive volleyball growing up; no school, no club, pretty much nothing but backyard stuff during BBQ's and the like. I have been playing in coed leagues for the last few years and have a mean vertical according to my teammates. My mechanics have all been learned while playing.

Breaking bad habits is very hard. When you play, you are focused on reading the play, reading the trajectory of the ball, getting your body behind the ball, preparing your arms to contact the ball...there is not a lot of room for thinking about you technique.

You don't always have to jump 100% but the approach speed should be as fast as the space allows.
Repeat, repeat, repeat...there is no secret...just repeat the right stuff though ;-)

Any tips or drills on how to practice avoiding this common mistake?
Please make a video on how to grow tapl and a better hiting tips
Its true and very helpfull..I had shoulder injury by the wrong way as he showed ..thanks
Can you please make a video on how to lift a smash in volleyball (ball coming with high speed)
Hey great advice. Did it the wrong way all the time and had some shoulder problems already. Are you planning to do some beach videos as well?
+franchecan We don't have any planned but it's something we could incorporate eventually. Anything in particular you would want to see?
+Jump Volleyball The differences between Beach and Indoors in regards to blocking and attacking would be very interesting.
Excellent! Thank you for your comment
Does this hitting motion also apply to a power serve or possibly a float serve. thx
+cityboyis2 Absolutely, it applies every time you hit, spike, serve a ball.
On a float serve you actually want to contact the ball a little lower, but further out in front of you. Curl your fingers back so you contact it with as flat a palm as possible. Toss with two hands, no spin, about 1-2' above the height of your head and pick a spot on the ball you want to contact. For instance, you can use the nozzle where you'd insert a needle. Lastly, don't follow through with a wrist snap or it won't float properly, you have to kind of pop it and stop the follow through on contact. Done properly, the float serve can dance all of over place and even fall out of the air.
I'd like to know how to increase my vertical if you could help with that , that would be amazing.
Nice video please i want to ask i do make the mistake of take an approach to fast towards my attack and end up missing the force whats your advice?
As a beginner I keep spiking put of the court ! 🤔only way is if I consciously just hit with my finger then the hand .....am.I making contact too low on the ball ?
What is something I can do at home and in practice that will really get my body to adapt to this form? I picked up the bad habit you showed in this video and have been trying to correct it for so long but for some reason can't figure it out.
+Melissa Hill That is a good question and a tough one to answer in writing. I think what I will do is make a video on a couple of exercises people can do because I got it a lot. I'll get on it soon enough.
For now, what I suggest is to take an elastic band and tie it to a post at your shoulder level. Grab the elastic band with your hitting hand and face away from where it is attached. Get into your armed position with your hitting arm higher and behind you. If it is your right hand, your right shoulder should be tipped down a bit (you do that by squeezing your abs on your right side) and behind you. Initiate your hitting motion by rotating your shoulders and squeezing your abs on your left side, this should tip your left shoulder down so that at the point of contact, when your hand is above and in front of your head, your left shoulder is below the right one. That's the position you want. Repeat the motion slowly with an elastic band until your core muscle get used to the type of abdominal contraction that is required to produce that movement.
I hope that helps. Again, it's hard to explain by writing but I'll do my best to put out a how-to video on some exercises to do.
Thanks for your question and good luck with your volleyball.
+Jump Volleyball I'll definitely try this. Thanks so much for the response!
Sir please give some tips for developing a good wrist and for a left handed player

Hi i like what are you doing very much !! well i have a question :
my height is 168 cm with a lot of jumping workout can I be a spiker ??
Wondering about it as well - same height, same question
I play varsity volleyball in high school I've played against people your height and the answer is yes but it is going to take a lot of hard work and a long time to reach the jumping height that you need

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 :)
Get your setter to throw you sets on more of a line
Un petit vidéo, exercices pour améliorer les déplacements, la vitesse serait bien ! :)
+Daphne P Merci pour ton commentaire. Il y a des vidéos parmi mes premières qui parlent de déplacement, ça pourrait t'aider. Je prends note de ta question par contre et je vais voir ce que je peux faire comme vidéo là-dessus.
En attendant, je te réfère à mon ami Nicolas qui a une chaîne d'entraînement physique et qui a écris un livre sur l'entraînement des joueurs de volleyball. Regarde dans ses plus vieilles vidéos et tu vas trouver quelques exercices pour améliorer le jeu de pieds et la vitesse. th-cam.com/users/FonctionsOptimum
J'espère que ça va t'aider
Plz make videos on how to improve jump on volleyball
I was wondering how to increase my vertical at home without any equipment.
Same dawg
Just do squats and exercises that make your legs stronger
My spiking arm will always stay unextended which makes the ball to hit very late leads to failure of spike
Tel me some drills which will help me to extend my arm peoperly to its full length and also to swing the arm properly
The contact point is not achieved i hit the ball when it gets lower leads to hitting it to the net
How to contact the ball at the contact point?
Please help
sir great video this will help me a lot
I've been hitting straight up and everytime I try to spike (Never actually had a good hit yet) When I come down, my shoulder is heading, specifically that bone.. So ima start opening up my arms and hitting it at a arched angle now
I don't think it's so much a "lean" by itself. The lean is a result of the torque which generates power. Hips & shoulder rotation into the ball as you described in the baseball throw example.
I have trouble bring my arms all the way back . I don't know why . any tips how to make sure I'm swing my arms correctly back ?
+Suleman Malik Are you rotating your hips and shoulders? Maybe it's a lack of flexibility?
I have a problem on timing the ball and as well as to jump, how should I time the ball to hit perfect
could please teach me how to make myself alert and judge the ball while opponent spikes the ball in high
+natshok rangdrel Can you give me more details because you have to stay ready and make sure your feet are stopped
thank you for your great compliments. i learned and get myself coached on how to judge the ball. but today i wanted to know how to improve my footwork for spiking, while the balls are thrown in different position.
Hi Natshok, if you look at our latest video where Ben is passing a short serve and has to transition to hitting, you will see that he adjusts really fast to where to set is going and goes into the ball. A lot of players, will make their normal approach outside the court even when the setter is backing up, but in those types of situations, you have to make sure that you are reading the play and most importantly are ready for anything.
The key ingredient is your last step and making sure you are actually going towards the ball. If you get caught hitting the ball over your head or left of your body, you might be leaving too fast which makes it hard to adjust afterwards.
Hope this helps
thank you
Hello 👋
When I wanna keep my self ready for spiking I jump but I scare from powerful hit, because I think it would hit the net
Could you please help me?
Hi, i just started playing Volleyball so I'm wandering if the same motion applys for serving the ball? Or is that different all together?
I wanted to know how one could spike on his highest touch
I do spike but on the contact of the hand and the ball my arm is leaned somehow which makes it too easy to block
I thought if one could make a strong overspike it would be easier
THX A LOT BRO
+Mahdi Malki my pleasure, I'm glad I was able to help
Whatever spike I do.. ball is rolling nice enough but still it's falling at the boundary line , I am not able to spike steep down on 3m line. I am 6.3"
Sir, is their any time limitations for libero,means can we sub them at any time and in any round?
Great tips - Thanks man.
This is exactly what I was missing, solves everything. I’ve been injuring my shoulder because of this
Is this mechanism same for quick ball hitting?
I feel a slight quebequer accent... is that possible?
Ok
@@dirtymike3329 its not an insult, its a legitimate question you idiot
Ok
I had low back problem because of bending like you showed in video and my friend also still have it because he is bending to much it looks like u are cracking a biscuit when he needs to hit the ball so overbending is fatal trust me we could both end up almost with losing feeling in both legs
Hey if you see this I'm 5'8" and I have a 25 inch vertical, I play outside hitter I'm really good at hitting but sometimes I forget to flick my wrist to hit the ball down any tips

Jaylee Lamm now that you said something ya 😅
Those are his enormous quad muscles.
Um... no.. They are just his high socks this is probably the dumbest comment ever XD
His shirt is kinda longer too

Do you have a video on increasing vertical? I'm 5'2 but can get (at least) my wrist over a standard women's net, but I'd like to get high. Any tips?
Higher* oops
i want to learn how to power tip. i play middle so it will be a quick and easy play to do
The power tip is super effective from the middle. Have you been working on it? How is it going for you? I’ll see if I can do a video about that, I’m working on some new tips. Stay tuned
I though my mistake during hit the ball is use my shoulder, jUst realised after watching ur vid..
Could you tell me how to increase the speed on hit the ball, please? Thank you
