The sled pull is within the 3rd round of the Hyrox race. Participants must pull a sled loaded with weight plates for a distance of 50 metres.
The weight of the plates on the sled varies depending on the category, and the exercise targets the glutes, back, biceps, and core.
To prepare for the sled pull, participants should incorporate pulling exercises into their workout routine, e.g. pull-ups, rows, bent over rows. Practice with a sled and gradually increasing weight will also improve endurance.
The sled pull is a full-body workout and lower exercises are also a must. Squats, deadlifts, and lunges can also be implemented to improve strength and endurance.
