Single-Arm Sled Push

How to do it

  1. Load the sled and stand behind it, gripping only one of the high handles with one hand.
  2. Lean your body weight forward into the sled at roughly a 45-degree angle, keeping a neutral spine.
  3. Brace your core hard to resist your torso twisting under the one-sided load.
  4. Drive through the balls of your feet with short, powerful steps to push the sled forward.
  5. Keep the pushing arm firm as a stabilizer without locking the elbow.
  6. Cover the set distance or time, then repeat leading with the opposite arm.
