Is volleyball good exercise?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Ya!! Your coach may make you do laps to get in shape and to be a blocker you use your thighs, calves and your arms to jump and block the net. Serving gets your arms in shape and to be a libero or a bumper you use your arms and thighs. Competitive involves laps and stretches that can help build up muscle and burn a lot of calories. It really depends on the kind of volleyball you are in.

soccer ball: you kick around a ball on a field and try to get it in a net, which earns you points, you cant use your hands unless you are the goalie.

volleyball: you bump the ball by putting your two hands together and putting your arms straight out and try to get the ball over the net to the other team. you also serve the ball and set it, and only use your hands.

It's not a recommended sport for kids under ten or eleven. They may be able to do drills but not actually play in a game.
