Pepper
A partner warm-up that cycles through dig, set, and hit. You face each other and keep the sequence going so your hands, timing, and ball control wake up before practice or a match. The hits stay controlled. The point is touch, not a kill.
Example
Two players stand across from each other. One digs, the other sets, and the first player hits a controlled ball back. They keep that cycle going until the coach calls them in.
