STEP 2

Start phase

Start with light passing and dribbling. Watch nearby players as you move and shoot.

STEP 3

End phase

Slow down and walk as you finish. Let your breathing settle, then check your workout duration.

STEP 4

Target muscles

Running and jumping work your cardiovascular system and whole body. When throwing, your legs, torso, and shoulder transfer power together.

STEP 5

Common mistakes

Bend your knees as you land after a jump shot to soften the impact. Do not swing your arms or pull on opponents during contact.

STEP 6

Breathing

Breathe naturally instead of holding your breath as you run and throw. After an attack, settle your breathing as you get back on defense.

STEP 7

Coach tip

Record the time spent playing handball. Do not enter pass counts, shot counts, or goals.
