Volleyball Tempo Sets. Four a four set is a set that goes high to the outside hitter. Jumping just before the ball is set the middle hitter must swing both arms above her shoulder before preparing the elbow.

Four a four set is a set that goes high to the outside hitter. In this system a 0th or 3th tempo does not exist although we commically refer to them with some clumsy bad sets e g. The one set is 1 2 feet in the air and is located a handshake away from the setter in zone 3.
By that definition the video above is 1st tempo.
Second tempo is when the ball is already descending after reaching its highest point. Second tempo sets are faster sets to zones 2 and 4 but sometimes a second tempo set could go to a hitter moving into zone 3 or the back row hitter in zone 1 or 6. This is typically a 1st step set. Each tempo has its own pros and cons which you can see in our set tempo video series on gms.
