Sled Pull

1. Adjust the weight on the sled according to your fitness level and training goals.
2. If using a pulling harness, strap it on securely, making sure it's comfortably snug. If using straps with handles, grip the handles firmly with both hands.
3. Stand facing the sled with your feet hip-width apart. Make sure you have a smooth, level, unobstructed path behind you.
4. Lower into a quarter-squat position, keeping your back straight, and brace your core.
5. Begin walking backwards slowly, taking small steps while keeping the tension on the harness or handles.
6. Push through the balls of your feet with each step, focusing on engaging your quadriceps, calves, and glutes.
7. Keep your chest up and shoulders back throughout the movement to maintain proper posture.
8. Continue pulling the sled for a number of steps or seconds.
9. Carefully disengage from the harness or place down the handles.

Notes

Leaning back slightly allows your weight to help move the sled. Avoid leaning too far back, as you can injure yourself or lose benefits of the exercise.
