To perform the TennisPro Resisted Backhand Return athletes will need a set of Kbands Leg Resistance Bands, a Speed and Agility Cone, a tennis racket, and a coach or partner to serve the tennis balls. Athletes will attach the Kbands Leg Resistance Bands just above the knees and place the Speed and Agility Cone at the midline. Athletes will line up at the midline and begin the drill once the ball is served across the net. Coaches will serve the ball to one side of the court so the athlete must return the ball across the net using a backhand return. After the ball is returned athletes will quickly move laterally back to the midline and prepare for the next tennis ball to be served. 

Athletes will complete 3-5 resisted rounds of 8-12 repetitions, taking 60-90 seconds of rest between sets. After the resisted sets have been completed athletes will remove the resistance bands and perform 1-2 unresisted sets of the drill. 

For more tennis specific drills head to the Sports Training Section at KbandsTraining.com. Here athletes will find drills to improve sports specific attributes as well as a wide variety of overall athletic training drills to increase their speed and lateral quickness. Ordering information for the Kbands Leg Resistance Bands, Recovery Foam Roller, and Speed and Agility Cones can be found in the Shop Section of KbandsTraining.com.
