5.0 out of 5 stars A good book for the off season
This book gives great sample strength and conditioning workouts. If your school doesn't have a off season schedule for volleyball then this book is for you. The workouts are broken down from beginners to more skilled players. It prepares the high school player for what college players do in the off season. It is geared strictly for volleyball.

2.0 out of 5 stars good but can be better
The idea of the book is good but the value of the book will further more increase if there were photo's and drawings illustrating how to execute the exercise. Only the explanation is not sufficient it might be difficult to understand

4.0 out of 5 stars It fills a great need in the volleyball literature, March 25, 2003

This review is from: Complete Conditioning for Volleyball (Complete Conditioning for Sports Series) (Paperback)
Al Scates is a legend in the volleyball world. Anything with his name on it should grab any volleyball fanatic's attention, as the success of his previous book will attest. But the key component about this book is the contributions make by Mike Linn, the strength and conditioning coach at Saint Louis University.

The book itself follows the usual structure. There are chapters on volleyball drills and conditioning exercises and what not. The key here is the Mike lays out the kind of exercise regimen that will help you with your volleyball game. The pictures are good illustration of the drills but most importantly, the material covered complement each other very nicely. There is now a bonfide volleyball conditioning book that focuses on the volleyball athlete, rather than try to cover all sports and doing a poor job of it.

I know of Mike's work through some of the Saint Louis University athletes that have come under his guidance. the man knows his stuff and have doe great things to improve the team strength and conditioning of all the Saint Louis University athletic teams.

The illustrations help a lot. This book is great for club and lower college coaches who can't/ don't have a paid trainer for their program. It is very informative and will help condition to build up your program.
