The Prowler Dog Sled
(Rubber Bumpers and Artificial Grass track sold sereratly)
This Prowler/Dog Sled has been around for a long time now, and like kettlebells it's become a key part of the modern day funtional trining gym along with an artificial grass performance track on which to us it.
Prowler/Sled traiing for trainers that are clued up about how it should be used to achieve maximum perfomance conditioning will know it's not simply a matter of trying to push the most weight for a few metres as sadly many self proclaimed "coaches" seem to think, but it's about putting just enough weight on the sled that it provides a significant resistance whilst still enabling the athlete to travel the length of the track whilst hitting complete exhaustion at the end of the run.
This and other similar sleds can also be hooked up to a pulling harness or waist band and used to provide additional resistance for sprint training much in the same way a drag-chute can be used but without the disadvantage of being affected by wind speed and direction.
With removeable poles this sled is also great for boot-camp type training as it's easily transported in a suitable vehicle.
