Improve Sled Push is a targeted add-on by ChAIron to fix the most common and costly sled push mistakes that hold you back: pushing too high with your hands, locking your arms straight, taking overly long strides that waste energy, and losing momentum by standing upright too early.If you feel drained halfway through or frustrated by slow sled pushes that cost you precious race seconds, this is for you.


HYROX athletes, CrossFit competitors, or anyone who feels stuck breaking through the sled push station and wants to turn it into a race-day weapon.
You should lean forward at about a 45° angle, with your hips below your shoulders, to maintain horizontal force and avoid digging the sled into the turf.
Race-day surfaces like high-friction turf add up to 40% more resistance than standard gym floors, making technique and momentum far more critical for speed.
Absolutely. Refining posture, step cadence, and force vector on the sled can save 30-90 seconds on that station and minutes overall.
Aim for 1–3 sled push workouts per week, adjusting load and volume based on recovery to avoid compromising form or increasing fatigue.
Yes. Short, rapid steps maintain forward pressure and prevent deceleration, whereas long strides create a stop-start pattern that wastes energy.
Drive lower. Push harder. Crush the sled like the pros. Train sled push the way HYROX and CrossFit athletes do, before your next race block closes.
