Dense intervals with fixed rest

Progression of Reverse Sled Drag

PROGRESSION · HOW TO DO IT

Dense intervals with fixed rest

These steps are written specifically for the Dense intervals with fixed rest. Follow them in order and stop before you lose the position.

  1. 01
    Set up your version

    Set up specifically for the Dense intervals with fixed rest. Face the sled, take the straps or handles, and walk back until they are tight. Stay tall.

  2. 02
    Move the pattern

    Walk backward with short steps, placing the forefoot first and letting each knee bend.

  3. 03
    Match the demand

    Treat this version as the only progression; do not add load, range, and tempo at the same time.

  4. 04
    Finish with control

    Straighten each knee as you move the sled, but do not snap or lock the joint at the finish. Finish every knee without snapping it.

Dense intervals with fixed rest

Sets: 4–8 · Distance: 20–40 metres

Dense intervals with fixed rest is a progression of Reverse Sled Drag. Use the written card above for its exact setup and execution.

Short range: Short range means the target muscle finishes squeezed in its shortened position.

WHY IT EARNS A SPOT

Own the position,
then earn the load.

Each backward step finishes with the knee extending as the quads shorten. The sled keeps tension continuous and makes load easy to scale.
