Several tires, a set of tracks, two sets of atlas stones, logs, "predator", sled, anchor chains, etc, etc, etc. It's kind of private (ie no gym members are allowed), but he lets me train with whatever...he and about 3 or 4 other guys train down there in the basement. Oh, and there is an open area that's about 100X20ft...kick ass.
The tracks would be fun. I think if I put a heavy vest on, then I'd be better. I honestly just don't weigh enough. I'll ask how much they weigh. If I had to guess, I'd say.......250lbs. But the point of them as you know is really the resistance provided by the massive surface area. I was pulling it over a smooth concrete floor and it pulled very smoothly...when I got it moving. I wouldn't be able to move it over pavement or grass, but you weigh more than me. There was a cable looped through it (about 6ft, which left me about 3ft from the track) and I had a...one of
these attached to the cable, but without the rubber. It ate my hands. I love the idea, I just need to get bigger.
If you need to add more resistance, you can throw plates on top of them also. It would take a while before anyone became efficient enough at pulling them that they need to add weight IMO.
