Resistance Band Basketball Rebounding Exercise

Resistance Band Basketball Rebounding Exercise

 

This basketball exercise is basketball specific because it is going to work on the skill of rebounding. It will work on developing strong hands and a strong back so that when the player gets their hands on a loose ball, they can grab it and then pull it into their body to secure it. There are many times in a game where two players get their hands on a loose ball, and the stronger and more aggressive player usually ends up with the ball. This basketball workout will help to make sure that if you get your hands on the ball, you have a good chance of coming away with it.

As this exercise translates over to the court and into your basketball drills and practice, you must emphasize going after every rebound with both hands. Getting both hands on the ball makes a world of difference, and it is a habit that needs to be ingrained into every player.
