Technique

How to perform Sled Reverse Flye

  1. Attach handled sled straps to a lightly loaded sled and stand facing it.
  2. Step backward until the straps are taut, holding the handles in front of you near waist height with your arms extended.
  3. Bend your knees slightly and hold your torso steady.
  4. Sweep your arms upward and apart with a consistent elbow angle, allowing the shoulders to rotate so the palms turn forward.
  5. Finish the outward sweep without shrugging or leaning back to replace the arm motion.
  6. Let the sled stop, lower your arms toward the start, and step backward to restore strap tension before repeating.
