The Importance of Applying 100% Effort in Practice
You may put in a ton of time practicing setting reps against a wall, or performing passing reps to a pepper partner or serving by yourself in an empty gym.
You may spend hours in the gym making yourself stronger by lifting weights or doing agility drills so you can improve you balance, speed and quick reflexes to the ball.
