This powerful squat workout includes three different moves utilizing Kbands Leg Resistance Bands and KB Powerbands in unison. This will allow for optimal activation of leg muscles for the most powerful squat combination. 

The first move is a squat side pull.

Begin by activating the lats and shoulders to pull both straps to one side while simultaneously squatting to activate the muscles of the hips.

Perform the side pulls for 30 seconds. 

The second move is a double arm squat. Start with the arms in the same neutral position as the side pulls and then squat down, bringing the arms down as well; one band on each side. Then shoot back up for a powerful squat movement. Perform this drill for 30 seconds. Maintain activation in the glutes to support the knees and create explosive power for jumping and take off. Use the entire body to pull the resistance bands down. Really keep the muscles under tension to get the most out of this workout. 

The third and final move of this power squat work out is the resisted jump squat. The athlete will now mount the anchor strap of the KB Powerbands at ground level to work away from the fence.
