This Is Not an Exercise Program

And it’s definitely not about running dogs into the ground.
 

Driven to Move™ is a structured, strength-led slat mill conditioning system designed for working and high-drive dogs that need more than casual fitness.
 

This program teaches you how to use the slat mill safely, ethically, and effectively to develop:
 

• Sustainable drive
   

• Real aerobic capacity
   

• Functional strength and durability
   

• Mental clarity under effort
   

• Clean recovery and nervous-system regulation
   

Without burnout.
Without behavioural fallout.
Without breaking the dog.

 

Why Most Slat Mill Programs Fail Dogs

Most slat mill use online focuses on:
 

• Speed
   

• Exhaustion
   

• “Hard dog” optics
   

• Endless reps with no structure
   

The result?
 

Dogs that look busy—but are:
 

• Over-aroused
   

• Structurally compromised
   

• Emotionally fried
   

• Dependent on constant stimulation
   

• Unable to switch off or recover properly
   

That isn’t conditioning.
That’s mismanaged drive.
 

The Dogs & Deadlifts Difference

At Dogs & Deadlifts, we don’t chase fatigue.
We build engines.
 

Driven to Move™ is built on the same principles used in intelligent human strength and conditioning:

• Engine before output
   

• Strength before speed
   

• Structure before intensity
   

• Regulation before drive expression
   

This program treats the slat mill as a tool, not a shortcut—and teaches you how to integrate it into a complete conditioning system that supports your dog long-term.
 

Who This Program Is For

Driven to Move™ is designed for:
 

• Working dogs (LE, security, detection, SAR)
   

• High-drive sport dogs
   

• Serious handlers who want longevity, not just intensity
   

• Dogs that struggle with over-arousal or poor recovery
   

• Handlers who care about ethics, structure, and durability
   

This program is NOT for:
 

• Anyone looking to force compliance
   

• Dogs that aren’t physically or behaviourally ready
   

• People chasing viral clips over dog welfare
