weight training of volleyball girls - how much do they lift ?
Does anyone know what weights they work with at their training ? Even the high school players seem to do weight training and i was wondering if these girls are commonly stronger than the average guy (after finding out about that 19 yo girl who deadlifts/rack pulled 335 lbs, see my last post). If you have any info about age/weights/reps that would be cool !
Like in this volleyball workout vid, i guess most of these girls are pretty strong compared to an untrained guy ? For example what about player#8 (lineup in first image) at 5:15, or the one at 3:50 ?

Re: weight training of volleyball girls - how much do they lift ?
I would guess that at high school level it all depends on the girl (how eager she is) and the coach (how much he/she pushes them). I'm sure there are girls on some high school teams (especially smaller schools where they struggle to find the numbers to make up the squad) who are mainly there to hang out with their mates, and I wouldn't expect too much from them.
The ones who are really keen, and perhaps want to continue playing into college level and beyond, I would think do a decent amount and would be more than a match for a smaller or (not too big) non-athletic guy. |

Re: weight training of volleyball girls - how much do they lift ?
thanks kyguy, yeah, i was thinking of the 2nd kind of girl actually, those who aim for the college level volleyball. I wonder how much "more than a match" would be in this case.
Actually i just decided to make a poll about this in another thread. If anyone has any more info about what weights they use in their workouts, its greatly appreciated ! |

Re: weight training of volleyball girls - how much do they lift ?
You've found a new type of video for me to watch. I've always liked volleyball women and I like women lifting (aka strong women competitions)
Watching these volleyball ladies lift is surprisingly hot, cause I've always liked the tall ones. A couple more I'm sure somebody who lifts will say something about their form being wrong, and, feel free. Good form is important, but, I just like watching them lift. Very cool. Quote:

Re: weight training of volleyball girls - how much do they lift ?
I've often wondered about this too. So many of them have such thick lower bodies and look like they must be quite strong. That combined with their long legs, I'm betting they could probably give you a heck of a squeeze.

I'm 5'7 and certainly average, musclewise..i'd love to find out if these girls were stronger or not. I too do not care so much about technique and form, cause after watching some of their interviews, from their attitude most of them seem to be real fighters, not just volleyball players. Here are some more...would be cool if somebody who knows those weights could say if this was much (in comparison for a guy who doesn't lift). In this vid there are some weights given, like box squats 4x 225lbs (1:50)...or 4x4 one arm rows with 50 lbs (4:20)...are these considerable weights ? I've no bloddy idea still the YT embedding won't work... [Only Registered Users Can See LinksClick Here To Register] [Only Registered Users Can See LinksClick Here To Register] |

Re: weight training of volleyball girls - how much do they lift ?
Hi Chris.
Why not get yourself down to your local gym and see what you're capable of? Or perhaps source yourself a cheap barbell and stack of weight plates for home use? It really doesn't require a lot of space and you can do a lot with it. Some good advice here: [Only Registered Users Can See LinksClick Here To Register] It's a great way to get in shape. Broadly speaking, a trained girl is going to be stronger / in better shape than an untrained man but there are naturally tons of variables. |

Re: weight training of volleyball girls - how much do they lift ?
Worth remembering that athletes who lift have a different goal than regular gym goers. For vb players it's increasing speed and height for jumps, building endurance so they can keep moving for several sets etc. The form might also be different intentionally, trust me, none of these teams is lifting while unsupervised.
