Answering your Questions about USA Volleyball (USA Volleyball Q&A)

[@confetti4423]

Matt Anderson always earliest in practice? Well that says a lot about him because he's very talented, very disciplined, and one of the best volleyball players in the world. You can really see the result in games.

[@rhodvalenciaga2743]

The Christenson-Anderson-Sander-Russell-Holt-Lee-Shoji team is my favorite starting 6 EVER.

Thanks for this upload! It really helps me see how USA volleyball is like!

Holt is such a great musiciannnnnn. Such a nice video again Erik

Eric: Today we gonna do a quick Q&A Q&A: 20min

[@Gianggiangvn]

I was waiting for you saying Max Holt who can sing absolutely well. Again, a nice video from you. Thanks a lot and remmember to take goof care of yourself these days.

[@haziqazhar1843]

Is there a chance on you making a video on explaining about serving or receiving formation? Love watching your videos as they are much help for improving techniques and such. Take care and stay safe!

[@benbarcados3328]

I was wondering what you think the future generation of team USA will look like? This comment is made with the upmost respect of every athlete but there is a huge disparity in performance between the starting lineup and the bench on team USA. This is more a compliment on how good the starting lineup is. You, Micah Christenson, Matt Anderson, Taylor Sander, Max Holt will all be remembered as greats in volleyball history and Aaron Russell has been a top 10 outside hitter in the world this year and David Smith is a great middle blocker. So while the rest of the team of strong when you have so of the best volleyball players in history on the current team do you see team USA getting weaker when lineup retires? If not could you do a video on up and coming American men’s volleyball talent?

[@ErikShojivolleyball]

wow thank you for the kind words! to be honest im not really sure! but there is some young talent coming up we just have to wait a see a little!

I know it's too late, but can you answer my question in your next QA session. "you've played under a few captains, who's the best one in your opinion? "

[@laurasabando6467]

It's so cool to know the behind the scenes of professional voleyball! I want to ask some questions too 😊: - I have seen a lot of VNL 2019 highlights videos and I think the crowd influences a lot the performance if the mach is the visiting team vs the local team so; how does the team overcome it? What things make the team cheer up? - What is the most challenging serve recive, float or jump serve? Greetings from Spain !

[@juliansuarez3849]

Cool video Erik!! When are we going to see you showing defense and reception techniques on the court?

All this while, I always think that all volleyball players can play beach volleyball, until you say you won't play beach volleyball😂 And, I would like to ask what athletes do when they are retired from playing as pro volleyball players? Career of an athlete pretty short though. Recently, I read news related to an athlete, sprinter Blake. The article claimed that he rejects to receive vaccination. He might has his own reason since he is an athlete..he might be scared it will affect his athletic performance (this only my opinion). I have written too much here🤣. I am glad you have recovered from your illness. Stay healthy and keep doing what you love idol🤗 Thanks for your fruitful q and a. Please do more😁✌🏻

[@thirdymaniquis]

Do more q & a's soon, I'll ask you a tough question haha!!!🤣

[@ledled0519]

Well I really need to refind confidence with volleyball...my coach scolded me cuz to be honest I wasn't in my best condition and my spiking&digging weren't as I wanted as they needed to be and every single time that I spike there is something that my coach uses to say "Jump higher" every time...I really try but there is always something idk that interrupts me... I can't hit it properly sometimes...Yesterday I really tried to overcome myself and I did a pretty good dig after that scold from my coach. But I have one question Erik you said that you lost against Poland and the next day you won against Serbia,how do you overcome that difficulty? P.S I know it took long but great to know that USA Volleyball National Team sings too👍✌👏😀
