Rusty shackleford Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Last year at this time Zeke got last place outta 20 kids pedal pulling, then he exercised alot and later that summer got a 2nd outta 20 and went to the state pulls. Well this winter he would do sometimes 50 to 100 squats a night, he would go for runs , rowing machine , he even did a workout with me at crossfit called the murph , a 1 mile run , 100 pull ups 200 push-ups 300 squats and another 1 mile run. He also took his pedal tractor around the 4 mile bike trail around sleepy eye lake 3 times, 2 of which he had a trailer and pulled his siblings . Well he had his first pull of 16 this year and got 2nd place. We both are incredibly happy and I'm glad he learned that hard work pays off. Going to need to build a trophy shelf 25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bauerj Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I’ve never watched a pedal- pull. At the end of the run is it a matter of traction, or leg power? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
