Exercise Descriptions DHS volleyball summer workout
Jump Rope Fast jumps Focus on keeping your core and calf muscles engaged
Superman • Laying on your stomach • Use your core muscles to lift your arms and legs off the ground • Only your thighs and core should be touching the ground
lunges • Walking lunges – alternating legs • MAKE SURE YOU KEEP YOUR KNEE BEHIND YOUR TOES! DO NOT PUSH YOUR KNEE FORWARD PAST YOUR TOES!!
Pushups • Men’s or women’s • PUSH your self and keep your core tight
Russian Twists • Balancing on your rear end (keep feet up) • Twist from side to side touching your hands to the floor • Use your core to twist not your arms! • You may hold a ball to tap on the floor if you want
burpees • Start standing up • Jump/drop down to pushup position • Jump feet in and then explode up • Keep core tight!!
Toe touch crunches • Lay on your back • Extend legs straight up towards the ceiling • Do a crunch by taking opposite hand to opposite foot • Try to touch your toes and keep your legs straight
dips • Use a sturdy chair or couch • Sit on the edge and place hands on the edge with fingers forward • Straighten legs out in front of you • Bend your elbows and push back up • Focus on using your triceps not your legs!!
Globe jumps • Start in a low squat position • Jump to your right, then jump backwards, jump to your left, then jump forwards • Both feet should be off the ground when jumping. No hopping or shuffling! • Stay low the entire time • One complete round equals one repetition
Ski jumps • Start in a low position with feet together • Jump from side to side • Pretend there is a line on the floor and jump completely over it • These are quick jumps however make sure you land the jump and keep good form (not the same as fast line jumps) • Stay low the entire time
Oblique crunches • Lay on your side so the crunch focuses on your oblique's • You will lay on each side during the exercise
Power jACKS • Start standing • Jump into a low squat position and then jump back up • These are like jumping jacks but make sure to jump into a squat position sitting the rear end back to build quad strength
Tuck jumps • Jump as high as you can pulling your knees to your chest • Be powerful but land LIGHT!!
Bicycle crunches • Balancing on your rear end (keep your core engaged!) • Alternate kicking legs out like you are riding a bicycle • One leg will be extended and the other will be in towards your chest
