Yes, I documented the first time I hit 10K steps. I am not ashamed. Update: Check out this post to learn more about wearing a Fitbit during volleyball. My Fitbit and I have a bad romance. It causes me anxiety, and occasional chaffing, but it’s like I’m addicted to it. I feel naked without it, and get…
Sorry to be reviewing so many Mizuno volleyball products these days! I am finally getting around to writing reviews on all of the great stuff I purchased from Hock Sports. Volleyball trends come and go, but one that I will probably not ever get past is the long socks. I love wearing long socks to…
Volleyball players are often torn on whether or not to wear knee pads. When I was younger, there were phases where it was “cool” or “uncool” to wear them. Do you get the “turtle shells?” How about the singular, smooth pads? The short kind or the long kind? Now that I’m older, and my knees…

I needed new volleyball shoes BADLY. The shoes I previously wore for volleyball were so funky, and the traction on the bottom was getting harder and harder to locate. They were some sad Asics that I received as part of my coach apparel from the season when I coached a juniors club team. They’re not…
As I stated in a previous post, my body has been ACHING from day after day of competitive volleyball. My lower back and hamstrings have been especially sore after each match, and even worse after each tournament. I have to admit that I haven’t been very good about stretching both before and after playing. I…

You see, there was this thing I heard about called CrossFit. I’d heard it was performed in a box or a cage, or something else intimidating-sounding. I saw great results from many of my friends, but I was also turned off by some of the cult-ish behavior I’d seen from regular CrossFitters. So what did…
