Band means a band around the ankles. It's an advanced swim drill which forces one to really press on the front end of their body to keep their back end up AND it forces a swimmer to address the Fishtailing in their stroke by maintaining a wide entry.

If you are more of a beginner or intermediate swimmer, I would skip the band part.

My favorite go to workout is this:

Warm up

3 x 500 pulls (#1 wearing fist gloves, #2 wearing drag, #3 for time) #1 is almost a preset

5 x 200s on a interval

1 x 100 kicking mixture of freestyle, backstroke, breast stroke.

5 x 100 on a interval

Warm down

I almost always construct my work outs in blocks of 500s
