How to Perform the Push/Pull Machine for the PARE and POPAT tests (push and pull instructions)

The push/pull machine, the bane of many.

It is a machine that requires strength, but above all else, it requires technique.

I have seen, and I have tested, plenty of strong guys who think they can just manhandle the machine. But with no experience, they still struggle on it. They attempt to muscle and power their way through it, but it doesn't work that way. Combine that with feeling gassed after 6 laps, and it looks anything but smooth.

This is why I've put together an in depth tutorial for the push/pull machine.

You must learn proper technique if you want a successful performance for your test. Especially if you want to stand out from the crowd, the push/pull machine can be a make or break on your overall performance.

Check out the two tutorial videos, for both the push and the pull, below:
