My lifting platform
I plan to build jerk boxes
I plan to build a flat bench or possibly just buy one, who knows
Maybe I will build a prowler sled

I'm a big fan of heavy sled drags (deliberate pace, not running).

I take an old, large ice chest and fill with sand. Attach a rope to the ice chest, then to an old reinforced belt.

Posterior chain greatness follows.

You could add handles to that and make a prowler

Yep! I occasionally just push it, but it's a bit low. I could probably add poles on either side and a crossbar and have a legit one.

That's awesome man. Did you follow some sort of template or just made it yourself?

I used this video. I made it taller because mine is outside and I could make it taller.
