But conditioning for volleyball is important for three reasons; the first to aid in recovery between rallies, to be able to continue high level of play in the fifth set and to recover from workout to workout and or match. This creates a coaching dilemma of answering the questions of what to do, how much to do and when to do it.

This kit contains three forms on aerobic/anaerobic conditioning: volleyball movements with the ball combining skill work with conditioning, volleyball specific movements without the ball which offers specific conditioning without the interruption of ball handling errors and general conditioning. The nature and methods of aerobic and anaerobic conditioning in volleyball are controversial. Studies show that for every one unit of work there’s three units of equal time for rest and recovery. This work to rest ratio classifies volleyball as a power sport. Further studies show that training aerobically (long slow distance training) in a power sport will reduce the athlete’s ability to maintain and/or increase power thus reducing performance.
