To those reading, I did forget what I think should be added to this: a timer and some sort of counter to track distance. It would be nice if there was a little spinning dial that showed "feet traveled", that could be reset. That way you could do 100-ft sprints and stuff.
Thanks for the review! Glad you love your TANK. To help with veering, make sure your tires are all inflated to the same pressure. Make micro adjustments like you said and keep in mind you may be pushing more with your dominant side. Thanks Jason!
Thank you. The one thing I remembered I think would be a great idea would be either a built in timer of some sort, as well as a disk that allowed for tracking of distance. So if someone wanted to do 100-foot bursts, they would have a reasonable way of tracking that.
i know you sell the inertia wave cables as an accessory to the Tanks but they only have a limited warranty of 15 days. I would recommend trying out the Kbands Victory bands with the torque tank. instead of the inertia wave since they are most likely stronger and more durable and come with a lifetime warranty and are also less than half the cost.
It looks like the Signature Sisyphus push-pull sled that I bought for $399.99 from Walmart, which I like. The Torque Tank M4 is probably a much better sled, but the Signature Sisyphus push-sled gets the job done, and it is very easy to put together and use. However, Walmart has already sold out of the Signature SIsyphus push-pull sled.
I used it for the first time yesterday, great convenience but compared to a normal sled incrementally being able add weight seems preferable for gauging progress. Basically I had a routine of 30 rounds in 30 minutes, so adding even 2.5KG each time told me I had done more work than last time. Not sure Ill be able to get that kind of incremental precision with this?
Absolutely. You will love the wheels. No worrying about tearing up either the ground (carpet), or the bottom of the sled. I promise that this thing is a butt-kicker.
I don't really know how to give you a scientific, accurate answer, mostly because sleds vary based on the surface. We use our sled on our concrete drive, our asphalt road, and then the polished garage floor, and it is different on all 3. I can tell you that, as a decently big and strong guy, you're not going to push this tank for more than 60 second without getting severely winded and slowing down.
@@JasonCloseOK thanks for a response, any idea if you'd be able to do maximum effort pushing in a small area, around 20ft? Or does it take some time to build up that max effort resistance?
@@husk5 Man, I don't think you would like it. The resistance is there from the get-go, but you are going to be turning around a lot at 20 feet. And remember, this thing is around 4 feet long. Add in your body behind it, which is going to be at a 45 degree angle to get a good push, and you're looking at probably 8 feet of space utilized by just you and the tank. I would think 40-50 feet is going to be the minimum you'd want to have with this thing, just based upon it's size.

@@JasonCloseOKi think they just used your idea. Good job and maybe royalties? Lol.

How’s the sled holding up? How often do you use it?
Good loooking boxers man! I have 2 myself

You can add weight to the center. I usually put 106lb kettlebell in the middle.
the sedge is supposed to be pushed on a coconut matt not concrete
Can you use it in the rain or snow without having to worry about rust?
Good question. I honestly don't know. I would ask the manufacturer on that one.
@@JasonCloseOK I checked the website and they said it's built to be used in all weather conditions without worry. of damaging it.
How's your tire wear? I have an M1 Tank. After 4 months I need a new traction tire.
We are still doing great. No complaints. You must be doing some serious work with it!!
I had the same issue with my m1 and returned it for the m4. I had to replace 3 tires within 4 months of use!
Is it worth buying over the rogue dog sled 1.2?
Absolutely. You will love the wheels. No worrying about tearing up either the ground (carpet), or the bottom of the sled. I promise that this thing is a butt-kicker.
How would you rate the max resistance setting to a traditional plate loaded sled?
I don't really know how to give you a scientific, accurate answer, mostly because sleds vary based on the surface. We use our sled on our concrete drive, our asphalt road, and then the polished garage floor, and it is different on all 3.
