Volleyball Jump Training Program

Written By Team Illinois Volleyball

At Team Illinois Volleyball we want to help athletes improve and perform better.

We realized that a lot of our players don’t know where to start when it comes to training, so we created this introductory jumping program to help volleyball players strengthen their legs and hips to produce more power and become more explosive.

A great by-product of this training is the injury prevention that comes with having stronger hips, knees and ankles.

We are so excited for you to get started with your jumping program and can’t wait to see your results on the court!

5 Basic Movements to Increase Your Power

DEPTH DROP

The depth drop is going to help you work on a strong and stable landing position when jumping as well as strengthening your hips for landing.

HANDS ON HIPS / DIP, DRIVE, SQUAT

Hands on your hips with a dip, drive and squat will help you to learn control and stregthen your hips, knees and ankles explosiveness.

REAR FOOT ELEVATED SPLIT SQUAT

The rear foot elevated split squat focuses on single leg stability to help strengthen individual leg power for side to side movements.

SPLIT STANCE SQUAT

The split stance squat will focus on single leg power and strength to further individual leg stability as well as better athletic movement.

PROGRESSIVE POGO HOPS

The progressive pogo hops are all about being explosive and rebounding in your jump so you can quickly jump, land and then jump again.
