How to perform it

  1. 01 Set your hands on the sled uprights, either high for an upright push or low for a stronger drive.
  2. 02 Set your arms straight, brace your core and lean your whole body forward from the ankles.
  3. 03 Keep your back flat and your hips, shoulders and head in one line.
  4. 04 Drive one leg back hard into the floor, taking short powerful steps.
  5. 05 Stay low and keep your feet under your hips — do not overstride or let your hips rise.
  6. 06 Push continuously for the prescribed distance without letting the sled stall.
