How to perform

  1. 1

    Attach dual handles to a sled connected by a rope or chain. Load the sled to a light weight.

  2. 2

    Face the sled, backing up until there is some tension in the line. Hold your hands directly above your head with your elbows extended. This will be your starting position.

  3. 3

    Walk backwards, keeping your arms raised above your head. Avoid jerky movements.

Important tips

  • Brace your torso so your lower back stays neutral.

  • Move through the shoulder joint — never momentum.

  • Control the weight on the way down as much as up.
