Band Resisted Layups Basketball Drill

Being able to finish quickly and explosively around the basket can add a lot of value to your game. The resistance band is going to train your muscles to be explosive and really work while they are doing the drill. When you take the bands off your body will still think it needs to work just as hard as when the bands were on, and you will be able to jump higher and quicker. This is a great resistance band workout to work on being explosive around the basket.
