How is the UCSD volleyball camp?

Would this daily aerobics workout get me ready for volleyball tryouts/camp?

• 300 scissor splits, 250 Sit ups, 100 crunches, 500 jumping jacks, 100 arm twirls, 25 low squats, 5 mins of high knee running in place, and 3 planks going as long as I can. scissor splits are where you lay on your back, put you legs up in the air and put them as far down in a wide V as you can then bring them together and cross them on the top and repeat. arm twirls are where you put your arms out and make tiny circles with small weights in your hand (ill get heavier weights as they get easier) Sorry they're not the normal name but this is just what I call them HA This is what I'd do every day in my room spread out during the day not including my workout about 1x a week at the gym including treadmill, elliptical, bike, ect. Does it look good? Thanks!! Ive done all of this 2 days in a row so I know I can do it but Im not sure if im doing enough or if im missing important aspects of a good workout to get me in shape for the volleyball camp at UCSD in july (10-13), my school tryouts either in the last week in August or the 1st week of September and my 1st ever club tryouts in like november. Thanks Oh BTW! For planks i make it to about 1 min. but when I start doing 3 1min planks everyday they'll get longer

• Answer:

  It sounds like you already have a really solid exercise routine for getting or staying in shape. You should consider incorporating some plyometrics into your routine to develop some explosive power. While you didn't say what position you play, plyos helps increase your vertical leap, so your blocking and hitting would improve, but even if you aren't a blocker or a hitter, it would still improve your quickness. Box Jumps, Squat Jumps, pretty much every exercise on the bottom of this url: http://www.performbetter.com/catalog/matriarch/OnePiecePage.asp_Q_PageID_E_59_A_PageName_E_ArticlePlyometrics2 Your current exercise routine sounds like it would get you in shape, but if you added just a few of plyometric exercises to your routine, I think you would see some volleyball specific improvement in your workouts.
