Conditioning Drill That Also Teaches How to Use Your Belt Correctly

Sled drags are a great tool to build GPP, enhance recovery, and provide extra work for weaknesses. One way to perform sled drags is to attach the sled to your belt, and do sled drags while pressing your abs out into the belt. This forces you to keep your trunk tight and push your abs out to create pressure against your belt, which is the same thing you should be doing when you squat or deadlift. Every step you take the weight will be fighting you, so keeping your abs tight is necessary unless you want to feel like Mike Tyson is punching you in the stomach...

Need a good way to learn how to push your abs against your belt? ..Attach it to a sled, wear it a notch loose and pull it through loose gravel while keeping yourself upright. Every step will feel like you're getting punched in the stomach if you don't keep your abs tight. #team #elitefts #powerlifting #gpp #squat #bench #deadlift #conjugate #training #conditioning #fitness
