Por_Favor SG What kinds of exercises are there to help train my leg calves? Do squats help train my calves?
coldzero SG To cut down forum posts, I hope im given permission to ask my question here. How do I train the strength of my fingers? I dont see people training fingers, but I need strength for my fingers to play some sports.
coldzero SG LOL. Dont think dirty la. Training the fingers help to prevent injuries while playing basketball too right?
sLeEpWaLkErInG SG i think sports is able to strengthen your fingers good enuf.. got one finger press i think also can help..those with a spring inbetween one..
Short Ninja SG do one legged calf raise with the other leg tucked behind it and then alternate .You can do this anytime anywhere like waitng for a taxi between 11.30pm -Midnight
eagle SG training fingers and grips should be the same sets of exercises I guess. Deadlifts? Do Chin-ups? train calves=> calf raises, do fast walks, jogging/HIIT-sprinting, jumps (play basketball also can), soccer, etc
Short Ninja SG for finger training-1)get a tennis ball or any ball you can put in your palm and squeezeeeeeeee.2)Go marketing without a basket using only strong vinyl bags.3)finger push ups at the beach.4)There is one where you put your fingers and thumb into the rings and pull like springs in it (sold at Mustapha ) .Good luck in your finger games I know you wont hurt yourself but please be gentle to others
knightlll SG You place your fingers above your forehead. Use your legs to push your body and to push the ball upwards. Thus , it is not just the fingers , the whole body is involved in setting the ball. Train your forearms for spiking and setting.
coldzero SG lol.. Dont need you to teach me how to set.. I have been a volleyball player for 6 years representing schools already..
knightlll SG Since you have been playing for 6 years , you should know that it is mainly the legs that are doing the work. Fingers merely control the direction and the angle where the ball is going. Try using a 3 kg medicine ball for practice.
