How to Perform

1. 1Attach dual handles to a sled connected by a rope or chain. Load the sled to an appropriate weight. Face the sled, backing up until there is some tension in the line.
2. 2With a handle in each hand, bend the knees slightly, keep your head and chest up, and begin with your arms extended.
3. 3To initiate the movement, flex the elbow as you retract your shoulder blades, pulling the sled towards you.
4. 4Take a step or two back to get tension in the line and repeat.

Tips & Common Mistakes

• •Focus on controlled movements rather than speed or momentum
• •Maintain proper breathing - exhale during the exertion phase
• •Start with lighter weight to master the form before progressing
• •This is a great exercise for beginners - focus on form over reps
• •As a compound movement, this exercise works multiple muscle groups efficiently
