• Standing with resistance bands around ankles, hold med ball
• Step forward with left foot and lower into lunge position
• Hold position, then rotate upper body to left, with ball
• Bring right foot forward, so it's even with right foot
• Perform to right side
• Repeat in continuous fashion for specified distance

Coaching Points: Bring foot over opposite calf every time you step into the lunge. Keep chest up and shoulders back. Follow the med ball with your eyes during each rotation.
Gaines: This works hip flexibility and the oblique muscles, because you have to squeeze your core while rotating. Basketball is such a grappling sport that you're always swiping at people or grabbing rebounds, so you have to be strong through your obliques. The bands add extra resistance for more hip and overall leg strength. The more hip flexibility and mobility you have, the more explosive you can be.
Sets/Distance: 4x10 yards
