Conseils techniques
Don't cheat yourself by not going deep enough. A common mistake is not lowering the sled enough to achieve a 90-degree angle in your knees. This is the optimal angle for targeting the glutes and hamstrings. However, never go so low that your lower back lifts off the pad or your hips begin to rotate upwards.
Avoid using momentum to lift the weight. The movement should be slow and controlled, both when pushing the weight up and lowering it back down. This will ensure that your muscles, not momentum, are doing the work, and it will also help to prevent injury
