{"product_id":"rae-crowther-the-tug","title":"Rae Crowther The Tug","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Rae Crowther The Tug is a water-weighted training implement built for tough, old-school strength and conditioning work. One piece of equipment covers tug-of-war battles, sled pulls, flipping, curls, rows and presses, and coaches can use the head-to-head drills to see how competitive their athletes are.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResistance comes from water. The shell holds up to 15 gallons, so coaches can set the load to suit the athlete and the drill, from a light 14 lb empty weight up to 138 lb when completely full. As the water shifts inside during overhead work, athletes have to stabilize the load, which adds a balance challenge to lunges, squats and duck walks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Tug can be used in many ways. Two athletes can face off in timed one-on-one tug-of-war reps. With the flat side down and a harness run through the handles, it becomes a pull sled, although it has no runners or center post. It also works as a flip drill for explosive power in place of a tractor tire, and once filled it can serve as an anchor for sit-ups, leg lifts, flutter kicks and partner medicine ball tosses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit measures 36 x 30 x 9 inches and is offered in Black, Royal and Red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUsage Guidelines\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlways add water before use and match the amount to the athlete and the activity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse water only to add weight, never sand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHold The Tug with the hands; never put arms through the handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNever let go of The Tug during tug-of-war\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor overhead drills, keep the dome side up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor sled work, place the flat side down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Rae Crowther","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":67945078259990,"sku":"TUG1-BK","price":545.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Royal","offer_id":67945078292758,"sku":"TUG1-RY","price":545.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Red","offer_id":67945078325526,"sku":"TUG1-RE","price":545.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/0029\/5702\/files\/TUG-IN-BLACK1.jpg?v=1794322901","url":"https:\/\/proathleticsupply.com\/products\/rae-crowther-the-tug","provider":"Pro Athletic Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
