Instructions
Preparation
- Position shoulders under shoulder pads with back against back pad. Place feet on platform so one leg forward, one foot forward and one foot behind, shoulder or hip width apart. Extend hips and knees and release lever.
Execution
- Flex hips and knees to descend until rear knee or forward hip is just short of complete flexion. Raise sled by extending knees and hips. Repeat. Continue with leg positions.
Comments
- 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.
