ANSWER: Rob,
What position do you play? It's hard for me to tell you what to do to get to the next level when I don't know what level you are at, at the moment. I can recommend a few books that may help. Or e-mail me back and be a little more specific on what you would like to get better at.

QUESTION: Sorry
well i play anything but setter!
i wouldnt mind getting better at jumping ( if this is at all possible) i reckon i am
now jumping about a hands height over the top of a mens height net in a block
Answer Robert,
If you want to get a better vertical jump some of the best exercises are plyometeric jumps. I can explain a few of them but it would be much easier if you "google" plyometric exercises because they will explain them much better and most sites have pictures.
