Landing is soo important. Before covid I was playing vball 3-4 times a week and I wasn’t doing anything to land safely. Started feeling some pain in my right knee but I ignored it for a few months until i couldn’t jump without feeling a stab-like pain. Turns out I had patellar tendinitis so I had to rest for about 2 months while taking antiflammatory meds and icing a lot. Knees feel like new now but I’m definitely gonna make sure to be landing more safely!

[@ElevateYourselfOfficial]

Glad I could help!

[@dougstair9679]

PS I coach beach Vb so we don’t float through the spike. The jump is more vertical so we don’t slip under the sand. The blocking step has to be strong to transfer the horizontal energy into vertical! Love the landing breakdown, very important.

[@snowa375]

Yo when males are 16 (roughly) the tendons in the legs tighten which is why some people get a random boost of athleticism - especially after a growth spurt. However this hasn't happened for me yet, meaning I cant jump as high as I should and my tendons absorb too much shock causing faster fatiguing about 2x faster. I was able to, at my peak, get my hand over the rim so about 8''. I'm currently 19 and around 6' or 5'11

Hi Coach. I think I've got everything down besides the penultimate step. Whenever I try to go for it even when accelerating, it slows me down and I can't get the long, straight leg like shown at 3:20. Are there any tips you could possibly give me to improve my penultimate step?

[@yourmother5810]

If you're right handed, start with your left leg forward and go straight into your penultimate for reps. It will force you to actually push off with that leg with power which is what im guessing is your problem. Make sure to set a goal to reach.

[@yourmother5810]

If you find that you can't get enough power on that step in your regular hitting approach, then you are accelerating too quickly. It's the step right before your penultimate so it should be the hardest one.
