Running is fine, but running with weight is better. Sled pulling allows athletes to test their ability to haul loads over a distance. Sled pulling allows us to do that without adding extra load to the hands themselves, and allowing the athlete to pump the arms to increase speed and maintain momentum.
When we do hammer strikes here at CrossFit Queenston Heights, we mean business. Thrust from the hips, keep the head of the hammer vertical, preventing the head form swinging out so that you look like a side-arm pitcher. Keep it straight up and down to maximize the striking motion. Beat it like it owes you money.
