8 HYROX Equipment You Can Find at Strengthbae

Training for a hybrid race such as HYROX requires a combination of gym equipment used in HYROX as well as supporting gym equipment to train endurance, muscular strength, and other physical abilities. Strengthbae provides various gym equipment options designed to support training for specific HYROX station movements as well as the development of supporting physical capabilities. These equipment options can be used to build your HYROX training setup at home or in a commercial gym, with several products featuring standardized HYROX equipment specifications.

HYROX Equipment at Strengthbae Based on Training Needs

You can divide gym equipment for HYROX training into two main categories: specific equipment for replicating HYROX stations and supporting equipment for building stamina and muscular strength.

Competition Sled for HYROX Sled Push and HYROX Sled Pull

The Competition Sled from Strengthbae is one of the most specific pieces of equipment for preparing for two of the heaviest weighted stations in HYROX, namely Sled Push and Sled Pull. With a base weight that meets the 50 kg competition standard, this HYROX equipment provides a pushing and pulling feel that is very similar to HYROX standards, even before additional weight plates are added.

This sled is equipped with four precisely angled handles, so you do not need to move the handles when changing direction on the track, just like the sled equipment used in HYROX.

The weight storage peg is made longer to accommodate a total heavy load of up to 150–200 kg, or the standard load for the HYROX Men Open/Pro divisions. In addition to HYROX Sled Push and HYROX Sled Pull, this HYROX equipment can also be used for backward drag or sprint resistance training.

For Sled Push training, the forward-leaning body position trains the quadriceps, glutes, calves, and core. Meanwhile, for Sled Pull, the large dedicated connector makes it easier to attach the Power Rope. Combining Sled Push and Pull trains leg drive, muscular endurance, and physical work capacity under high levels of fatigue.

Power Rope for HYROX Sled Pull

The Power Rope from Strengthbae is specifically designed as a HYROX equipment accessory for the Competition Sled to improve the 15-meter HYROX Sled Pull hand-over-hand pulling technique according to official standards.

Unlike a regular battle rope that has handles at both ends, the Power Rope features a sturdy steel connector on one end that can be attached directly to the sled’s center connector, and a non-slip handle on the other end.

The 15-meter rope features line markers every 3 meters to help measure progress, regulate rhythm, and monitor HYROX training performance. Made from high-quality reinforced Dacron material, this Power Rope is resistant to abrasion, does not fray easily, and is comfortable to grip.

Sled Pull training using the Power Rope trains grip strength, the forearm muscles, upper back, biceps, and body-position coordination when repeatedly pulling heavy loads.

Air Rower for HYROX 1,000-Meter Rowing

The Strengthbae Air Rower is used to prepare for the fifth HYROX station, the 1,000-meter Rowing station. Using a commercial-grade fan resistance system, the rowing pull feels very smooth and responsive according to the amount of force generated by the user.

Just like HYROX rowing equipment, the digital monitor displays precise training data, including time, distance, estimated calories, watts, and pace. You can train to reach the 1,000-meter target with this HYROX equipment.

The long rowing slider track on the Strengthbae Air Rower also supports a full range of motion for taller users and can be folded for space-saving storage in a home gym.

HYROX Rowing training with this air rower can help you develop efficient rowing technique, breathing rhythm, power per stroke, and cardiovascular endurance. In HYROX strategy, rowing training focuses on maintaining a measured pace so energy reserves are preserved for the next station.

Competition Kettlebell for HYROX Farmer’s Carry

The Strengthbae Competition Kettlebell is designed for training the 200-meter Farmer’s Carry station. Featuring a design similar to HYROX standards, all weight variants have the exact same external body dimensions, diameter, and handle size as those used in competition. This allows you to maintain consistent grip technique when performing progressive overload without being disrupted by physical differences in the HYROX equipment.

The hollow-body construction ensures balanced weight distribution throughout the kettlebell walls. Strengthbae provides a very complete weight range, from 4 kg and 6 kg for beginners or technique refinement; 8 kg to 32 kg in 4 kg increments as well as transitional weights in 2 kg increments marked with black lines; up to overload weights from 36 kg to 48 kg for professional athletes.

Farmer’s Carry training develops hand grip strength, forearm muscles, trapezius, core stability, and lower-body endurance. In addition to carries, kettlebells are also highly versatile for exercises such as goblet squats, deadlifts, and lunges.

Competition Sandbag for HYROX Sandbag Lunges

The Strengthbae Competition Sandbag is specifically designed to support preparation for the 100-meter Sandbag Lunges station. Unlike rigid power bags or narrow round sandbags, the Strengthbae Competition Sandbag has a flexible elongated cylindrical shape.

This HYROX equipment can comfortably curve along the contours of the upper back when performing walking lunges or squats. Equipped with four protective layers consisting of an inner bag, zipper, Velcro, and outer bag, the weighted sand is kept secure and prevented from leaking.

The Strengthbae Competition Sandbag is available in four weight options that you can use for accurate HYROX training. The 10 kg Sandbag is suitable for HYROX Women Open training; the 20 kg Sandbag is suitable for HYROX Men Open/Women Pro training; the 30 kg Sandbag is suitable for HYROX Men Pro training; and the 40 kg Sandbag is intended for extra-load training or overload training.

Sandbag lunge training not only challenges the thigh and glute muscles, but also develops single-leg balance, core stability, and breathing control while maintaining the load across the shoulders.

Competition Wall Ball for the HYROX Wall Balls 100 Reps

The Strengthbae Competition Wall Ball is used to prepare for the final HYROX station, which consists of 100 Wall Ball repetitions. Using rubber crumb filling with a foam-lined exterior, this HYROX equipment provides a very stable and straight rebound when it hits the wall, preventing the ball from bouncing unpredictably and disrupting training rhythm.

The outer surface of the Strengthbae Competition Wall Ball is covered with non-slip PVC material and reinforced with double zigzag stitching that is tear-resistant and comfortable to grip even when the hands are sweaty. With the official HYROX-standard diameter of 35.5 cm, this ball is available in five weight options. The 2 kg Wall Ball is intended for beginners; the 4 kg Wall Ball for HYROX Women Open training; the 6 kg Wall Ball for HYROX Men Open/Women Pro training; the 9 kg Wall Ball for HYROX Men Pro training; and the 12 kg Wall Ball with iron sand filling for overload training.

In addition to closely matching competition specifications, combining this HYROX equipment with a target board helps train squat endurance, hip drive, shoulder endurance, throwing accuracy, and movement rhythm.

Curved Treadmill for 8 km HYROX Run

The Strengthbae Curved Treadmill is a key supporting gym equipment option for cardio training and building running endurance in preparation for HYROX. Because running accounts for a total of 8 km throughout the entire race, training your ability to run between workout stations is one of the keys to successfully completing HYROX.

Unlike a regular treadmill, the Strengthbae Curved Treadmill operates manually without an electric motor, with the belt speed fully controlled by the force of your footsteps. The 94-ball-bearing system produces very smooth and responsive belt movement, from walking to sprinting. Its curved design supports a natural running mechanism and reduces impact on the joints.

Although it is not included among the HYROX equipment used during competition, a curved treadmill is ideal for interval running, sprint training, and simulating running transitions into HYROX stations at home without consuming electricity.

Cable Machine and All in One Trainer for Supporting HYROX SkiErg

Strengthbae also has a ski trainer designed for training for the first HYROX station, the SkiErg. However, availability of this HYROX equipment is currently limited. Strengthbae has alternative gym equipment that you can use.

Although they do not directly replace the SkiErg station, the Cable Machine and All in One Trainer from Strengthbae can serve as highly effective supporting gym equipment, especially for training the downward pulling motion that is the main movement pattern of the first HYROX station. The high pulley can be used for various upper-body strength training movements.

Exercise variations such as straight-arm cable pulldowns, kneeling cable pulldowns, cable crunches, and triceps pushdowns help strengthen the latissimus dorsi, upper back, triceps, and abdominal muscles. These exercises build pulling endurance and core control needed when performing the SkiErg pumping technique.

Example of a Gym Equipment Setup for HYROX Training at Home

Designing an independent HYROX training area at home can be adjusted according to the available room size and your budget allocation.

Basic Home Gym Setup

A basic home gym setup prioritizes functional equipment that saves space and is easy to store. The main gym equipment includes a Competition Kettlebell, Competition Sandbag, Competition Wall Ball, as well as free weight equipment or resistance bands. This home gym setup for HYROX is ideal for limited spaces such as a bedroom or small garage for training carry, lunge, wall ball techniques, and basic strength.

Complete Home Gym Setup

A more complete home gym setup combines HYROX equipment with supporting gym equipment such as cardio machines. The equipment includes a Competition Sled, Power Rope, Air Rower, Competition Kettlebell, Competition Sandbag, Competition Wall Ball, Curved Treadmill, as well as a Cable Machine or All in One Trainer. This setup requires a larger training area, especially to accommodate a sled track for HYROX Sled Push and HYROX Sled Pull training.

Consider Your Gym Space Before Buying HYROX Equipment

Choosing equipment for HYROX training requires you to consider the physical size of the room and the available movement space in your home or home gym. Each type of equipment requires a different amount of space to be used safely and comfortably.

For example, a Competition Sled requires a straight track of at least 10 to 15 meters covered with gym turf so the sled can move smoothly. A Competition Wall Ball requires sufficient ceiling height so the ball can be thrown to the official target height of 2.7 meters to 3 meters.

An Air Rower requires a long floor area for the slider, while a Curved Treadmill requires a permanent position on a level floor. Equipment such as kettlebells and sandbags is relatively more flexible because it can be easily stored on a storage rack. Before purchasing, check the room dimensions, ceiling height, training movement path, rubber flooring thickness, and transition space between equipment.
