treadmill

'this?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'drill team potentially' is the wordplay.
'potentially' indicates an anagram (letters have the potential to spell a new word).
'drill'+'team'='drillteam'
'drillteam' anagrammed gives 'TREADMILL'.

'using' is the link.
