[@philipparsons1206]

I'm so good at hitting even I have no idea where the ball's gunna go.

[@iwack]

Philip Parsons I'm the opposite, I'm so bad I have no idea where the ball is going haha

[@jackspediceye9961]

NinjaPro807 He is saying the same thing as u

[@EmptyHand49]

I'm so bad I know where the ball is gonna go, which is straight at the net then landing right below me as I slip on the ball and injure my femur

[@moedotcom8190]

EmptyHand49 lmao tuff

[@isabella2977]

Lol

[@supercheesy2337]

1:56 I love how Donny is still wearing that bright green tank top when everyone else (except one guy in white) is wearing black.

[@joki6395]

Im playing volleyball today, gonna try your tips, im not that good of a spiker, 2/5 hits are descent. Who else plays volleyball here and watches Elevate yourself videos? And why are all asians so good in volleyball, I live in Norway and half of the people there are asian and they are really crazy good :D love to play with them

[@joki6395]

well it went so-so today, the sets I was given was really poor, when I got a good set my spike was really weak, and most of the asians wasnt there :(

[@vincentlee4903]

Wow didn't think Norway would have that much Asians especially in volleyball, do you actually see a lot of them usually though?

[@joki6395]

Vincent Lee yes the asian population in norway is high

[@Mario-kk2vj]

[@luwilayaks5184]

Roses are red Violets are blue There's always an asian better then you

[@Blowurmind63]

You look happier in this video. Nice

[@Hunde_Floh]

Changing the direction (angle) of my hand and how it is hitting the ball seems to help more then let the arm follow through to somewhere. In our last set on our friday training i scored 9 of the 25 points with that tip i saw here. In the first set i only did 4 sucessfull spikes with my normal technique cause many others have been dug by the defenders. Thank you very much for that helpfull tip with the hand direction. I'll practice that in the future. ^^

[@darylldumo75]

now that you've mentioned it, i noticed during practice that every time i hit a powerful spike the opponents were able to dig it. Thanks

[@chengsterboi07]

nice tip, but what i have noticed from other players who swing in opposite direction usually over throw their shoulders. it is best to swing faster so the blockers won't get there. hand positions is also good.

[@dailyblackheads]

I'am playing volleyball for my school and I will try all tips from you,thank you.

[@DetkaStalyum]

Hello Coach Donny, would you do a "Tip Video" for middle blockers in order to play against experienced and fast setters? Going from mid to any of the outsides and get more blocks. Reading through quick sets and so on... Thanks :)

[@TheRock.520]

Helped me get alot more kills in my past two games this week, won one but lost one yesterday. I got a nice kill in the third set (tie breaker for JV) that used the same technique as shown in the video which got us on a run to win it out Tuesday.

[@ashutoshyadav3788]

coach your videos are probably the best videos online about vollyball training . thanks for teaching us

[@odst1172]

Great video Coach Donny!! really helps in the high school season.

[@surajgurung5280]

All my spikes are right on the defenders hand. Learning a lot from this video

[@artemis4610]

I've had a lot of trouble being unable to change the direction of my swing enough so this video helped a lot!

[@ayden6367]

My problems are that I can’t get the timing right and when I spike the ball never hits the middle of my palm,it always hits the side of my hand

[@indied1954]

Try throwing it up and without jumping spike it down the same way you would if you were jumping. Coach Donny has a good video talking about this

[@skaners8]

@@indied1954 Nice tips but jump add another timing to worry about so she/he idk need to work on both

[@nataliel9685]

what position do you play? i play outside and if the setter is in her normal spot you go when they like release

[@surajgurung9038]

This is exactly what I wanted to learn. Most of my spikes were picked yesterday.

[@victorokede3889]

I love the volleyball drills and it has help me a lot keep it up, I have a problem spiking he can I do better pls

[@nafizlan]

Actually,it is also a tip for blocking. hhh

[@MAMP]

1:01 is a fucking sick dig.

[@kyleabraham7610]

Hi coach donny! Do you have any tips for spiking arm swing? I'm used to not extending my arms when hitting like my elbows are always on shoulder level. How do I get used to hitting with a fully extended arm?

[@victorbingcal6547]

Thank you for the tips coach

[@voleibolll]

Why don't you do some beach volleyball stuff? more content is more content

[@user-xp3vd9ux5t]

Coach Donny. Great tactical tip. One suggestion: show some exercises without weights and weights for rotor cuff strength and stability coming up players. I'm as old as gold vball. Use 5lbs or what's easy to hold free weight in hand and do bucket drops each hand 10-15 reps 3 sets. Anyone knows bucket drops!.

[@GabrielSouza-ie1tt]

Thank you! Your videos are helping me so much!

[@sunndays2240]

hey coach, have you ever tried getting pass a blocker by aiming at the corner of their arms which rebounds out of bounds? if that makes sense

[@DJoquer7]

Excelentes spikes, tengo una pregunta actualmente estamos participando en una liga amateur y en el partido pasado el arbitro me comento que yo no podia spike despues de la linea de tres metros estando yo en posicion 1 o 5 (defensa). Yo le dije que si podia siempre y cuando no pisara la línea de 3 metros, por lo que yo decidí salirme de la línea lateral izquierda y volver a entrar por delante de la línea de 3 metros y hacer el remate y aún así me dijo que no era posible. Pero es algo que tu haces todo el tiempo en tus matches coach Donny...

[@DJoquer7]

Excellent spikes, I have a question at the moment we are participating in an amateur league and in the last match the referee told me that I could not spike after the line of three meters with me in position 1 or 5 (defense). I told him that if I could as long as I did not step on the line of 3 meters, so I decided to leave the left side line and re-enter ahead of the line of 3 meters and do the shot and still told me that It was not possible. But it's something that you do all the time in your matches coach Donny ...

[@DJoquer7]

Thanks so much, Coach Donny...

[@vincentlee4903]

Hey, Donnie, I have been watching your spiking videos, and I noticed you only talked about the 3 step approach. I didn't make the volleyball team in my high school sadly, but the coach first showed us the 4 step approach and didn't say anything about the 3 step approach for the remainder of the tryouts, but I think it might have been because other players already knew about it. I wanted to know what is your advice between the 4 step approach and 3 step approach?

[@vincentlee4903]

Ohh thank you so much! I've always wondered about it

[@daisydogmarisaa]

Hi Coach! I'm a 14 year old and I'm 150 cm tall or 4'10' - 4'11". (Very short) So far in middle school I have played back receiver, setter, and wing spiker. But at this time I was not playing for the school team, instead it was for fun. Considering my height, I was guessing that I would not be able to play wing spiker in high school. I have watched your tutorials on how to improve my jump and it has really helped and I can get higher than before to spike over a highschool net. My first question is should I be able to see right over then net when I'm spiking? And my second question is, do you think, considering my height, I will be able to play as a wing spiker in high school? If not what position would be best for someone my height? Thank you for all the help! Please Respond!!

[@Song_Jang_Mi]

Marisa A. Yes you can. Height doesn't matter. It may give you an advantage but being short doesn't get in the way at all. Check some video's. There are a lot of awesome spikers who are like really short. And BTW I'm sure you'll still grow. I'm a 16 (girl) and I'm still growing while I'm like 171 cm tall. You can do it!😁💪✌

[@wayneswt4178]

Coach donny,When spiking, decide the direction of the spike first,then just using wrist work. or direct spike.

[@felicia5620]

donny u r so good. thanks for your awesome videos!

[@yassinepeazy]

best coach ❤

[@deisneralvia2576]

Hi coach donny. Thanks for your video.. I like it is a good example!

[@sonimartinez7864]

I'm a fan of Coach Donny

[@Mila_BK]

Hey Coach, was wondering if you had any tips on digging spikes that are coming higher or at your face. I get freaked out everytime I play back row because I'm afraid a spike will come directly at me. It's happened a few times before and it always hits uncomfortably on my arms/shoulders, or I have to turn my face so I don't break my nose.

[@vinht23]

The key is to keep your hands to your side between your shoulder and hips. This will give you better reaction time to put your hand together if the hit goes high towards your face. Most people keep their hands too low.

[@nigel9068]

what i learnt from my coach is that u put ur arms into a flower shape and as the ball travels to ur face u make an flower shape to receive

[@renggasami]

Sir. When we spike, our palm relax or stiff? Thanks you

[@jazeimperial2420]

Saori Kimura is a good example!

[@abdulghaffar3459]

Hi.sir please tell us how to make a longer stay during the jump when spiking also exercise to improve spiking timing. Please

[@thangzamabawitlung17]

Thank you for this video I need very much

[@deviprasad177]

Make a video about aiming while spikes

[@gelolangit3660]

Thanks CoAch

[@thehinduteluguupsc1122]

Sir cab u please tell me for how much height of the ball should I take a perfect jump in spiking Iam getting fast sometimes and slow missing the time of the ball please tell me sir and next I follow every video of yours please reply and clear my doubt sir

[@xcver]

curious but to me it looks as if in your second example the attacker was explicitly not spiking where he was facing. He was facing towards position 6 and ultimately rotated to spike line. The defender was there because that is the position he needs to be at with a diagonal block. I am pretty sure he did not read that the spike would go there which is most likely why he was standing on his defensive position already when the serve was done on his side (he basically did not move). Still it is a good idea to be not to transparent when spiking :)

[@volleyone]

any intakes on kinesio tape? is it effective?

[@nazu_volley_06]

Srr show some easy exercises for jump long in very low time

[@peterlustig7881]

[@kirang7238]

And when to take a move when the ball releases from the setters hand?

[@kirang7238]

hi Master, i am 5 foot 6 inches. i am lean and can jump well, but while hitting always my ball goes out side the court not inside. i am hitting far. how can i rectify it. please help

[@lykacordura8175]

Thank you coach donny💗💖

[@x_ao_ngame]

I'm just a 5'4 and if possible I want to a good tachtique to pull over the ball through a taller opponent than me

[@КалоянМинков-б2ы]

I'm playing since i was 13 now I'm almost 17 and every time I spike where I'm facing if there is someone blocking I'm getting blocked this helps against blockers too but you have to see the block first!

Thanks You!

I get nervous when the setter give me set, what can i do? i did follow your instruction, but i cant spike the ball downward, it all go high😭

[@griffintailx3845]

Practice, believe, and embrace technique

[@raj9805]

hello sir I am raj , sir,, my height is 5'8 please make a video on blocking tech.for short heighted player like me

[@juanmanaligod6841]

raj potphode LMAOOO IM LIKE 5’5 AND YOU CALL YOURSELF SHORT FFSS

[@elias3026]

Well the theory is good... But the examples are kinda random. They are more personal mistakes (like poor positioning of the libero and poor technique digging), rather than the skill of the spiker.

[@11stem6aramirezgiancarloc.8]

I don't know but my spikes don't have direction they all go out side

[@Jose-fy6pe]

how do you stop yourself from running into the net?

[@thongxenglee3378]

Schizophrenic Desk don't jump forward, jump straight up.

[@shelbymorimoto371]

Yikes. This is a great way to injure yourself before you even graduate high school. It’s terrible for your rotator cuff to consistently swing away from where you are facing 😭

[@tjasasmonkar4906]

i cant even spike where im facing how the fuck do i do this??💀💀

[@tonyfrag7354]

I'm 17 and im 1.85m is it a good height for volleyball ??

[@joki6395]

yes you are lucky, im only 179cm, and Elevate yourself is 178cm

[@tonyfrag7354]

you are 1.75 but if you have good jump is the same height as me and believe me i dont have good jump

[@SergentTartiflette]

Yup definitely agree there. I'm an ok spiker with 1.84m and an average jump, and one of the best hitters in my team is 1.75m but he's fucking flying on the court. Not a great blocker tho because he can't build up speed to jump higher.

[@NYX.COSPLAY]
