      • IPG, Dublin. I was there ages ago and I've saving up for membership since! I have this weird obsession with the prowler.... I'm shit at it, but I keep going back to it

        500 quid will get you one. See if your local gym will go halves with you.

        • Dang, I'm stuck down here in Cork, all prowler-less.
          I'm training at my rugby club's gym at the mo' but I doubt they'll be too pushed on spending money on... well, anything.

          If I get enough hours at work over the summer I'll pick up one when I get the cash saved but I have too many things to be paying off at the moment to be considering splashing out more than the price of a student cinema ticket.

          And BTW, I don't think anybody is any good at the prowler

          I know there's a very good trainer near me with sled's, farmers walk handles and prowlers though, I should get onto him and see about access to them but again, money is an issue.
          Ah well, looks like it's sprints, tire flips and skipping rope drills for a while more...

          • 500 quid for a sled???? WTF!

            Get down to LIDL, buy yourself a arc welder for 50 euro , some steel for another 50 and make one!

              You could start a production line Zulu, sell them off at €200 a piece!!
              What are you cackling at, fatty? Too much pie, that's your problem.

                Haven't a farts notion of how to weld. However if somebody wants to take ODIN's idea and sell me one for 200 euro I suppose I'd be ok with that

                There are cheap ones like this one:

                But I wouldn't wanna see the shipping on that thing.

                        I'll tell ya what. If you can get me a decent image with some dimensions on it I'll make two if you cover materials.

                        Might even make it out of stainless if I can swindle some scrap lying around.

                            Seems like a savage piece of training kit all the same.

                              Wow, very nice of you to offer!
                              Sure thing... any idea of what it would cost...?

                              Same link I gave earlier but it gives the dimensions as well(43''X36''):
