Abstract
A weight sled for fitness training that uses a plurality of separately-adjustable resistance mechanisms to allow for adjustment of overall resistance, bias correction and directional control, and wheel skid or slippage control, by means of differential adjustment of the resistance of the plurality of resistance mechanisms. Differential adjustment of the resistance mechanisms can be used to manually or automatically offset a directional bias in the sled, ground surface, or the athlete's abilities to keep the sled moving in a linear motion, and to prevent wheel skid on surfaces with differing friction coefficients.
