Instructions
Preparation
- Sit on seat with back of hips against back pad. Place feet
on platform shoulder width or slightly wider. Extend hips and
knees. Disengage dock lever if it does not automatically disengage.
Execution
- Lower seat by flex hips and knees until either is near complete
flexion. Raise seat by extending knees and hips. Repeat.
Comments
- When finished, engage dock lever, and lower seated to starting
position. If insufficient hip flexibility forces pelvis to pull
away from back pad at lower portions of movement, only lower
sled just short of spinal articulation. Keep knees pointed same
directions as feet. Do not allow heels to raise off of platform,
pushing with both heel and forefoot. Placing feet slightly high
on platform emphasize Gluteus Maximus. Placing feet slightly
lower on platform emphasize Quadriceps. Also see Sled
