If you do, what kind of exercises do you do with them?

Coach,
Bungi's are a tremendous part of our off season workouts.
Agility= Side suffle LEFT/RIGHT Stay low quick feet 2= sprint forward back peddle pro-plant sprint 3=Duck walk and get off's Sideway shuffles 4= break to cones etc...
Speed= First guy turn and run coaches command 2cd man go goes over speed training keeping great form.
We use our bungi cords 4 days per week. 2 agility and 2 speed training right now.

Thanks HAWKOPTION. I did have some ideas, but I am always looking for new things that can make our off-season training better. It just seems to me that there are endless ideas for uses with the resistance bands. I have even thought of doing some of our dynamic stretching with the bands. Thanks for your thoughts.

We also do a lot of O & D-line get-offs on them. PG

Absolutely LOVE rubberbands! We stretch everyday with the rubber bands. There are endless exercises that you can do with them. I live a 20 minutes from the original innovator of jumpstretch, Dick Hartzell. I have trained under him and I have seen him give lectures and demonstrations. As far as plyometric/resistance/agility training goes, I don't think you can find a better system than jumpstretch.
