Homemade Prowler Sled

DIY Homemade Prowler Sled


Knocked up a Homemade Prowler|Homemade push sled for a few quid at the weekend.

Used a couple of car tyres (one of which was a tyre sled in a former life, made by Pat Hodgson of HMGS - check out the tyre with the eye in the front/weight discs can be stacked inside via a welded bar resting on a piece of wood slotted inside)

No real need to explain what has been done to make this if you use 2 standard size car tyres, wood can be held against tyres to get sizes and then holes drilled into rubber (careful with this/I used a drill bit for wood), I've used long bolts to secure the wood to the tyre and used screws and bolts to attach the wood to individual pieces.

To create the handles I bored a hole about 25mm right through the wood and used some old dumbbell handles.

As you can see from the pics, weight can be stacked on top and also in the front tyre.


I tried my DIY Prowler out in my garage and works great on a hard concrete surface, but not really at all on grass.

I made this after being inspired by Chris Beardsley's Make Your Own Sled article from Garage Gym Online which is incidently a good place to start if you fancy making your own Strongman Sled.

If your stuck for exercises for sled training then you should check out Jedd Johnson from the Diesel Crew's Ultimate Sled Training Manual
