Dragging/Training sled with pair of straps
Dragging Sleds:
What is a sled?
A dragging sled is a powerful training tool which will enable you to get in shape, burn fat and increase sporting
performance for a fraction of the cost of other cardio-vascular equipment, and will last a lifetime (no moving parts
to break!)
How does a sled work?
A sled is a very versatile piece of equipment, simple but effective! The sled adds resistance to sprinting, walking,
or a variety of other exercises. The straps are attached to the front of the sled and it is loaded with your choice of
weight and dragged along the ground, either with the hands or by threading a standard weight training belt through the
loops on the straps. The sled maximises contact with the ground, but will not damage the ground. It can be used on any
surface, I have used one on grass and been unable to see any evidence of damage afterwards. It will not scrape concrete
or paving.
What can you do with a sled?
A sled can be loaded up with a lot of weight or very little weight. It can be dragged with the hands holding the
straps or a weight belt attached round the waist. Different training effects that can be achieved are:
- Power development
- Starting Strength
- Lactic Acid Tolerance
- Endurance
- Speed Development
- Active Recovery
- Muscle growth
- Metabolism boosting (fat burning)
Some ideas of ways to use a sled are:
- Forward dragging with belt
- Backwards dragging with belt
- As above holding straps in the hands
- Bent-over dragging holding straps (as in rugby scrum)
- Ankle dragging (straps round ankles, forwards or backwards)
- Chest press
- Standing row
- Woodchop
- ...and many more! (almost anything you can do with a low cable pulley)
These sleds are exceedingly high specification and professionally made, black, with 2 straps which are very versatile.
The straps will fit on a standard powerlifting belt easily, they are also usable as handles for upper body dragging and
ankle loops to drag the sled with the feet. The straps will also fit around most people’s shoulders to make a sort of
harness to replicate a truck pull if you really want to load up the sled! Please see below to order.
