This is a GREAT approach if you want no speed, no vertical leap, no hang-time, no power in your swing, and knee, shoulder and hip problems.

I read this before I finished the video and thought it was harsh... nope you pretty much nailed it

Great video! best one on KZread!

Imho good video. I got all answers I needed so far: hip placement, ball placement respect to my shoulder, important first step. After I tried all this I started jumping real easy, real high.

After about 4:30 minutes, Caitlyn looks like she hates her life.

Whenever I find a video on approaches, I also encounter comments denying the quality/accuracy of the facts of said video. I just wanna master my god dang approach, I have no idea what to trust :' )

Watching after 10 years 😬 20/11/2021 Saturday

Nice training like it👍👍👍👍👍

good instruction with footwork, but honestly, a train wreck with the arms.

Ive been coaching for about 20 years...and have been obsessed with fundamental skill analysis. After working with the approach with ALL level of players (10 year olds through college) the way he explains the approach is almost exactly how I explain it. I am not a Gimmillaro fan by any means (Ive always heard that he is a little nutty). However I have to give him props because he and I are on the same wavelength here.

There are a few reasons to go LRL for left handers (easier to twist in the air primarily) also some people eventually injure there back because of the unusual torque. If you have no physical problems then do not worry about it. In fact when Karch Kiraly played beach, he would change his footwork to RLR to help him hit the line.

Try to swing your arms slightly sideways while going back, and compare the height they get to compared to just swinging them straight back. You'll see they gain more altitude, and you can gain more speed thanks to longer range of accelleration.

wtf I'm watching this to help myself with muscle memory because I tend to when I swing not get my left arm up while I'm swinging. In my years of playing volleyball they tell me to swing my arm back because it will help with your verticals......I've never seen anyone put their arm straight. I learned it as left(arms are forward)..then a quick right left(arms swing back) jump (both arms swing up) dominant arm is pulled back like an arrow.... The non dominant was to help you find the ball in the air.....

Every coach has there own technic and I like the way he uses his technics this is my opinion you don't have to agree but I like it and I tried this technic and it works well.

Might want to delete this comment. This is the exact same way Giba, the Brazilian national team member, did his approach. Yes, you are more prone to injury because you break harder, but this in turn also makes you jump higher. Remaining injury free is a matter of growing your limbs and muscle strong enough to handle the load.

@volllllllllggggggggg I have a question that is bugging me recently. I have been playing Vball at a intermed to Adv level for over 10 years. I am happy with my approach and spiking technique which is like the above video. The only difference is that my approach is opposite. I am Right Handed but i use a Right Left Right approach. I have read that LRL is correct for Right handers. I am wondering if it really makes a difference? Am I not hitting at my full potential becoz of it?

Yes, you are not hitting at your full potential. For right handed hitters, a LRL approach allows you to open your hips up to the setter. With your hips open, you are able to get maximum hip rotation to hit the ball with power. By you taking a RLR approach and being a righty hitter, you rob yourself of that ability to get power in your swing. You are most likely swinging with your shoulders, than with your hips, core, and elbows. Hope this helps, even if it’s 8 years later!

Missing another important factor...HEART... Dont forget the defense will dig a lame hit... Speed,rhythm,timing,and power are very important things...if you want to be above average

I don’t find opening your hips to the side effective. I’m in the middle of changing my approach because this isn’t effective at all for hitting line because you need to bring your arm across your body to do so. Whilst your doing your elbow I bent instead of being straight and you can’t hit well

if you go RLR as a righty it is the same as throwing with right leg forward. Looks akward and you will not be able to throw or spike with as much velocity due to the fact that your hip and back are already forward and you do not get the rotatiaon loading.

This is not the best video o YT. the trainer (players), forget the use of the arms to gain "jump capacity". Both arms behind your back during the second step of the approaching. good luck !

perfect form hitting

I am on the team for younger kids and I'm learning How to do this my coach puts so much pressure into me just saying I am only in the fith grade

before you start, the right foot should be in front or next to your left. it's hard to take a step with your left if your left is already in front.

Thanks!

the footwork technique taught here is absurd. for all young coaches out there, i would not follow his technique. does not allow for natural explosion. injury risk as well.

This swing of the arms will not make the attacker jump very high.

lol swinging there arms out t the side before the jump ? Im sure thats going to help their vertical

This is a head coach of a volleyball team?? Most programs do not teach this approach method. If you go to LBS you better practice this technique

I think your recommendation is premature. The lesson only covers foot placement, and not rhythm or tempo. This is a very common footwork for most athletes and I teach all my new players to turn their feet as such - especially if they plan on playing at an elite level.

People don't believe it, but, jumping is and artform. You have to be in the right position...but, you have to have the mental ware withal to not start and commit early. I've see 5'8 - 5'10 hitter out jump 6' plus...all because they have perfected their jump, the timing and their ability to rotate in the air to use the block to their advantage. I was a bit miffed in the beginning...as I watched the hitter in motion, not Step by Step. This approach isn't different from nearly all the others...maybe different arm positing...

Vengo de uan Familia de Volibolistas de REP. DOMINICANA. "LIGA AñEJA EL BRISAL"I come from a family of volleyball players, I see always the advice.

I disagree, I think this is a fine approach.Of course there are more aspects to a good approach than is explained in this video, but it's a good start.

OK

Naaa... not the best. The first step is the one you go to where you want to find the ball. The first step you bend 45o your elbow... short fast flexion will help the arms go back faster and ballistic, helping even, during the lift of (bio-mechanics baby). 2nd step should be aggressive and landing lower, in order to load the quads, almost a bouncing and jumping at the same time (jumping over the river). This will increase the vertical reach. Foot break and hips cues are correct.

This is good for unathletic tall women, but for players with more natural athetisism it won't bring out a good vertical

4 step approach is better

Lol everything about this is so wrong. Wow.

this is the worst i have seen makes no sense. his serve is just as bad. In my mind having her two feet perpendicular to each other is probably dangerous. can a orthopod comment here please.
