http://www.synergy-athletics.com - Sorry about the wind noise! I still posted the video as the sled dragging scarecrow movement is pretty simple. Sled dragging scarecrows are great for explosive training, but also can be done slowly and controlled.

Benefits: upper back strength, dynamic hip movement, tricep activation

Another variation is performing the scarecrow, and holding it as your walk backwards.

Thanks for viewing!

  • where did u get the straps?

  • @nikolatesla08 walmart or tractor supply, I can't recall. Both have them.

  • Cool, know any explosive chest exercises kinda like this?

  • Yes.  You can face away from the sled and use the straps like a "jammer" and explosively press the straps away from your body.
