Elite training form for pulling is to produce a motion utilizing more than the arms but to engage the entire body. This is achieved by holding the arm close to the side, extending the trunk, inclining the torso, and lower body heavily as the arm begins tugging the object forward. World Class athletes who engage in the sport of ‘Tug of War’ have been found to achieve greater upper torso strength relative to lower body from years of competition.
