In this video, I break it down step-by-step so you can use it on race day. We cover: • What the underarm hook sled push is • Why it’s more efficient than the standard push • How to position your arms and shoulders correctly • How to get your center of mass over the sled • Why most people accidentally push DOWN instead of forward • How to generate more power with your legs • How to try this in warmups (even if you’ve never done it before) This technique helps you: ✔ Move the sled faster ✔ Use your legs instead of just your arms ✔ Conserve energy during your race ✔ Improve your overall HYROX time I personally tried this for the first time right before my race… and it made a huge difference. If you’re racing soon, practice this before race day—or at least try it in the warmup area. 🤘🏻 FOLLOW ME ON IG → https://www.instagram.com/doclyssfitness/ 🤘🏻 LEARN MORE + FREE RESOURCES → https://doclyssfitness.com/
