02 · Setup

Court and equipment

Use a stable standing or half-kneeling base.

Anchor the band securely and check wear before beginning; choose low tension.

03 · Execution

Progressive steps

  1. Stack rib cage and pelvis without holding the breath.
  2. Resist light rotation while keeping shoulders level.
  3. Add a slow volleyball-ready lateral step without losing alignment.
04 · Applied progression

Maintaining a low body center of gravity

Keep hips mobile and lower only as much as needed without collapsing the back.

No separately verified photograph exists for this constraint. See the parent setup reference image.

Suggested dose

3 sets × 15–20 seconds or 6 slow reps per side.

Success criterion

No arching, twisting or breath-holding under load.

Safety and adaptation

Use light loads and stop if trunk control deteriorates.
