  • I snagged the Torque Tank M1 earlier this year and since then have been using it weekly.
    We’ve owned a number of sleds in the past, and so far this is the easiest to use for the varying lifters in our house (myself, my wife, and my daughter).
    Today we share a few of the tips, tricks, and… HACKS… we’ve found for the Torque Tank M1

    One of my major knocks of the M1 was not being able to do drags very well and had never thought of pushing it backwards. Gonna play around with that a bit more. Thanks for the shout out!

    A great set of hacks! I keep wanting to add a sled to my arsenal, but I can't bring myself to get one that will scrap up pavement so this is definitely one on my shortlist.

      Yeah we've used a lot of options and that was always a downside. The Tank isn't perfect, but it's the best we've used.

    Agree that Only downside to torque system is replacing the front tire, have to disassemble a big chunk of the system it’s a huge pain. I use mine on asphalt driveway, use 5 days a week, tire lasts about 9-10’months.

      @@drew6167 the XT4 for me and my family definitely worked better, felt more difficult, and was easier to scale from my daughter up to me. The M1 was a little more "flat" in terms of it's difficulty. My daughter would often push on level 2 and I was on 3. Hope that helps explain it.

    You may have gym equipment issues. Have a sissy squat? Anyway what did you think of the resistance? Tore Achilles and find sled is best for targeting (also bad knees so need to limit impact)

    • @GrayMatterLifting
      @GrayMatterLifting  6 місяців тому

      Gym equipment issues as in, too much stuff? lol... yeah, probably.
      Resistance is ok. The Torque is really about you working really hard so it fights back, similar to an Air Bike. I've got the Xebex XT4 that I'm testing right now, and I think it is a much better option. I've got ANOTHER sled on the way soon that should compete with that one. So keep your eyes out, two sled reviews coming in a couple months.

      Can you share some details? How long did it last? How often did you use it? And what was the price?

    • @magicdrugsFN
      @magicdrugsFN 10 місяців тому

      I think it was $22.75, If you need a tube that was an extra $10. I used it 10 minutes daily as part of the ATG program. The 1st wheel lasted about 6-8 months. Currently the weather is not good, so I use it when the ground is dry. The front tire slips more often when wet, causing more wear and tear... I push and reverse push it with the handles as well as pull it backward with straps. Pulling backward with straps causes the wheel to slip more often. I have 90 lbs of weight on top. next time I am adding an additional 60 lbs sandbag to see if that helps... @@GrayMatterLifting
