How to do it

  1. 01

    Attach dual handles to a sled connected by a rope or chain. Load the sled to a light weight.

  2. 02

    Face the sled, backing up until there is some tension in the line. Take both handles at arms length at about waist level. Bend the knees slightly and keep your chest and head up. This will be your starting position.

  3. 03

    Without flexing the elbow, pull the handles upward and apart, performing a reverse fly with some external rotation. Your palms should be facing forward as you do this.

  4. 04

    Return to the starting position, taking a couple steps back to take the slack out of the line.

In the app

Sled Reverse Flye appears when you own the kit it needs and the day's window has room for it. Loads come from Rule 3 (Loads rise when earned, read from RPE, graded strong) and climb on the reps you actually did.

If a machine is taken the engine swaps a same-pattern movement and says why.

If you don't have the kit it needs

Same movement pattern, same primary muscles — swap by what you have.
