Training Tip Tuesday: Become Stronger
I know what you're thinking "well, duh. I already go to the weight room".
But are you getting stronger?
Too many Volleyball players who train with their school team or on their own only stay in the 3 Sets and 10-15 Rep ranges.
Not that you can't build any power, strength or muscle for Volleyball doing 3x10-15 on everything.
But you'll only get so far. You can take your time with how you add weight, add sets, and go down to lower rep ranges....but you can't avoid it and you can't take forever either if you want to Peak your Performance.
Simple Rule: after 2-4 weeks of getting stronger in the 3x10-15 Ranges, add 1 set to your 3-4 biggest lifts, and go down to 6-10 Reps. Do this for 2-4 weeks, then stay at 4 sets or add 1, then go down to 4-8 reps.
So on.
You'll notice there is still gradual progression in adding weight but not too too fast nor slow. Understanding that lower rep ranges begin to occur as we add more weight and fatigue sets in.
It's okay to not hit more weight at higher reps you are use to. Gradually you'll be doing more weight at lower reps and higher reps.
Which helps you dominate the Court!
It will also allow you to stay healthier longer and play with different variations of movements.
