What it is

This exercise is a powerful, full-body pushing movement performed by driving a weighted sled. It primarily targets your hamstrings but also strongly engages your glutes, quadriceps, calves, chest, and shoulders for a comprehensive workout.

Technique tips

  • Maintain a strong forward lean into the sled.
  • Drive with short, powerful, alternating steps.
  • Keep your core braced and your spine neutral.
  • Select a sled weight that allows max speed.
  • Grip the handles firmly with fully extended arms.
  • Use quick, forceful breaths to sustain effort.

How to track your progress
