Movement instructions
Wearing either a harness or a loose weight belt, attach the chain to the back so that you will be facing away from the sled. Bend down so that your hands are on the ground. Your back should be flat and knees bent. This is your starting position.
Begin by driving with legs, alternating left and right. Use your hands to maintain balance and to help pull. Try to keep your back flat as you move over a given distance.

Your progress
Keep the same other setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Bear Crawl Sled Drags sessions.
Weight, distance, duration and completed sets.
Example: carry 20 kg for 30 m in 25 seconds. Note whether your weight entry is per hand or the combined load.
Keep load, route and recording convention visible together. A longer carry with a lighter weight cannot be reduced to one claim about getting stronger.
