Reverse Band Drag – This exercise is used to replace the standard sled drag. Like the band resisted sprint, you will wrap the band around your client, but this time they will be facing you (I prefer to wrap a band around a dip belt due to the more comfortable fit around the lower back area). The client will lean back slightly and take the slack out of the band and you will provide resistance as they walk backwards taking small but deliberate steps. This exercise is a great replacement for the leg extension machine due to the lack of force placed on the knee joint.
