    You can try skipping. It helps with the footwork. Makes you feel 'lighter' and more versatile on the court.

    Using foot or ankle weights is not a good idea for jumping or running. This has been discussed several times before. This practice is not good for feet, ankles, knees, and possibly hips and lower back. Do some research on this.

    Try doing some cardio workout 2 or 3 times a week to develop a good aerobic base. Work up 20 minute sessions or longer. Two 10 minute sessions are almost as good. To work on burst endurance, also engage in interval training (plenty of threads on this one as well). To work on speed, try some plyometric and other power (speed strength) training. Skipping rope is one form of plyometric training,
