With the resistance band around your hip and the anchor point in front of you, walk backward to where you feel enough resistance from the band. Standing tall, let the band assist you in moving forward for either one, two, or three steps (depending on the resistance and length of the band you are using), and then using the same amount of steps (or less to make the drill more intense) to stop yourself in a balanced position with your left leg in front of your right. After you have come to a complete stop and found your balance, reverse walk away from the anchor point and repeat the process, except now bring yourself to a stop with your right leg in front of your left leg. Make sure your band is strong enough that it will not snap and that you only go as far as it will tolerate. To be safe, you can focus on just one step.
