LOSled pull is def one of the stations that requires TECHNIQUE.
Yes you need to build some strength to manage it but you need to nail the technique, and it actually becomes a pretty fun movement.
After my first hyrox I HATED the sled pull. But then I started practicing the actual technique for it and firstly I improved my time from 5:30 down to 4 min, but also now I it’s one of my favorite movements!
✨ Hinge, use your body weight to lean back and then walk back.
- In my first solo I squatted way too deep that literally did nothing more than made me exhausted. It’s a horizontal movement, so work with it not against it
✨Rope management
- The rope needs to stay within the lane, if you keep it next to you and behind doesn’t matter, what ever works for you to not trip on it! I practice to keep it on the right side of my body so I can see it all the time
✨ Use your legs!
- If the weight is too heavy to pull with your arms, use your legs. No way I could pull the pro weight with the arms only. Not even the Elite does. Work smarter.
✨Strength train
- Yes it’s a hinge movement, so all sort of hinge is great. BUT you actually PUSH with your legs, so push exercises for your legs like back squats etc is even better!
