TIPS FOR IMPROVING VOLLEY USING RESISTANCE BAND 1

-
In this post we are going to talk about both right and reverse volley, and how to improve some of the key aspects of it.
As we all know volley is a stroke that is used being in the net, in which we hit the ball in the air in which it bounces. It is considered an attack hit, although some of its variants can be considered transition or continuity.

When we are trying to improve our volley, one of the main points to improve is the speed of the movement, as this has to be technically performed properly, but with considerable speed for our volleys are aggressive.

An error that often occurs is the lack or inability to accelerate the arm to meet the technical requirement that is to keep a short armed and in front of the line of the body. When this lack of speed occurs, a much wider movement is usually executed to benefit the speed. The problem lies in the loss of the correct technical execution of the volley (wide arming, turning of the body...).
To solve this problem there is an exercise that is very useful, and to be able to do it we only need some rubber resistance.

The exercise consists of making the technical gesture holding the elastic band with the hand, assuming a resistance for our gesture is working on increasing the power of our arm, also working with a high degree of transference to the movement of the volley.
The following procedure will be carried out:
4 x (10 repetitions of the gesture with the rubber and 10 volleys followed by 1 minute of rest).
Then we will do it with the other volley, that is, if we have started with the right-hand volley, then we will do it with the backhand volley.







With this exercise we are boosting the speed of the arm and once we change the rubber for the shovel we will notice that our stroke comes out with greater speed than before.

A variant for this stroke could be to hook the resistance band to the wrist so you can do the exercise holding the shovel and only have to release th elastic band when doing the strokes of balls.

BEST 4 EXERCISES TO IMPROVE THE JUMP.

-
Image
BAND GOOD MORNINGS Using a 41 inch band, stand on one end, spreading your feet a small amount. Bend at the hips to loop the end of the band behind your neck. This will be your starting position. Keeping your legs straight, extend through the hips to come to a near vertical position. Ensure that you do not round your back as you go down back to the starting position. BAND VERTICAL JUMPS Step 1: If you do not have access to vertimax or bands/belt then skip this exercise and move on to the next exercise Dumbbell Squat Jump. Step 2: For this exercise you will need 2 bands, a belt, 2 carabiners and 2 heavy dumbbells (70 lbs minimum) to anchor the bands. Step 3: Stand in the middle with tension on the bands and jump as high as you can. Aim for max height on each jump but also try to get off the floor as fast as possible BAND PULL THROUGH To do Resistance Band Pull Throughs, anchor the band around a pole, furniture or in a doorway.

RPE (OMNI-RES) WITH RESISTANCE BANDS

The Rated Perceived Exertion (RPE) is a tool that helps to control intensity during strenght training and can be applied to everyone, but ¿What is RPE exactly? According the American College of Sport Medicine (ACSM), "RPE is a psycophysiological scale, which means that it calls on the mind and the body to evaluate the perception of the effort. The scale measures sensations of effort, discomfort and fatigue experienced during aerobic and strength training"  The firs scale emerges from aerobic training with the Borg scale, so that athletes could give feedback to their coaches inmediately about the training load. Later it begins to be validated for strength training with OMNI-RES scale, also being validated for use with resistance bands. Colado et al. (2012) ¿How can we use it? Normally in strength training the % RM is usually used to quantify the intensity, but the problem is that without encoder, you have to do test of RM to calculate the value of RM.

HOW TO IMPROVE THE PADEL DEFENSE WITH ELASTIC BANDS

When we are in the defensive position it is very important to keep the center of gravity low, as most ball come at a low height. An example would be an opponent's volley, with a cut-off effect that slides on the court and reaches below the knee. A common mistake is to have a high center of gravity, which makes our shots imprecise. Normally this occurs because the armed when we are with the center of gravity are made above the ball producing that many times we hit the ball with cut effect. To hit with cut effect is very unadvisable since it is necessary to be very precise to avoid that the ball gets up. For this reason we have designed the following exercise. In the we can see how it is using the elastic bands that go from ankles to the belt, coa that makes that when the position of the player is very high the bands exert more tension, so the player will notice a relief of tension if it lowers its center of gravity.   The material us
