Prowler Sled
A rugged and durable Prowler weight sled for pushing and pulling workouts. Built for commercial use, the frame is constructed of a 3mm walled box section with solid steel uprights, and can hold 300kgs of additional weight.
- 48kg unweighted.
Prowler weighted sleds have a number of uses across a range of athletic applications:
- Speed and acceleration training
- Active recovery training
- 'General physical preparedness work' for strongmen, lifters, and functional fitness athletes
Prowler weighted sleds offer an interesting training stimulus. Because they require only a 'concentric' (force-generating) phase of muscle contraction without having to resist or "lower" a weight (eccentric action) they provoke less residual muscle damage than conventional weight training. This means they can be used for active recovery work and volume work to improve training capacity, speed, and power - without overly taxing recovery and repair systems.
