Hyrox runs four singles divisions — Women Open, Men Open, Women Pro and Men Pro — and only five stations change weight between them: sled push, sled pull, farmers carry, sandbag lunges and wall balls. Everything else, including all 8 km of running, the SkiErg, the row and the burpee broad jumps, is identical for every racer on the floor.

This page is the reference version of the Hyrox weight standards for the 2026/27 season, pulled directly from the official rulebooks rather than from a forum post. If you are preparing for Hyrox at home, these are the numbers your training loads should be built around — and there are three caveats about them that most charts leave out.

How Hyrox divisions actually work

Hyrox is not one race with scaling options. It is four separate product lines, each with its own rulebook.

  • Singles — four divisions: Women Open, Men Open, Women Pro, Men Pro. One racer, 8 runs, 8 stations.
  • Doubles — five divisions: Doubles Women, Doubles Women Pro, Doubles Men, Doubles Men Pro, Doubles Mixed. Two racers share the station work.
  • Relay — three divisions: Women, Men, Mixed. Four racers, each running 2 x 1 km and completing two stations.

The single most useful thing to know about the singles table is that Men Open and Women Pro share a column. According to the official Hyrox Singles Rulebook for the 2026/27 season, the loads are published in three tiers, not four: Women Open in one column, Men Open and Women Pro sharing the middle, and Men Pro on their own. A woman stepping up to Pro is taking on exactly the men's Open loads, with her own 2.70 m wall ball target.

Age is not a scaling factor. The 2026/27 rulebook lists age groups in five-year increments from Under 24 (16-24) all the way to 85-89, and athletes may compete in Pro divisions up to and including the 80+ age groups — but the weights table never references age. The one exception is qualification: athletes aged 60 and above qualify for the World Championships via the Open division only, and at the World Championships those 60+ age groups compete using Open weights, repetitions and distances.

If you are still getting oriented on the race itself, we have the eight Hyrox stations explained in running order.

The master table: Hyrox weight standards for singles

All figures below are from the official Singles Rulebook for the 2026/27 season. Kilograms are the authoritative unit — Hyrox sets everything in kg, and the pound figures here are our conversions, rounded to the nearest pound.

| Station | Women Open | Men Open | Women Pro | Men Pro | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Sled push, 4 x 12.5 m | 102 kg / 225 lb | 152 kg / 335 lb | 152 kg / 335 lb | 202 kg / 445 lb | | Sled pull, 4 x 12.5 m | 78 kg / 172 lb | 103 kg / 227 lb | 103 kg / 227 lb | 153 kg / 337 lb | | Farmers carry, 200 m | 2 x 16 kg / 2 x 35 lb | 2 x 24 kg / 2 x 53 lb | 2 x 24 kg / 2 x 53 lb | 2 x 32 kg / 2 x 71 lb | | Sandbag lunges, 100 m | 10 kg / 22 lb | 20 kg / 44 lb | 20 kg / 44 lb | 30 kg / 66 lb | | Wall balls, 100 reps | 4 kg / 8.8 lb | 6 kg / 13.2 lb | 6 kg / 13.2 lb | 9 kg / 19.8 lb | | Wall ball target height | 2.70 m | 3.00 m | 2.70 m | 3.00 m |

Both sled numbers are printed in the rulebook as "incl. sled" — we come back to what that means below, because it is the number people get wrong most often.

Sled push: 102, 152 or 202 kg — including the sled

The sled push is 50 m for every division, broken into four 12.5 m lengths. The published loads are 102 kg (Women Open), 152 kg (Men Open and Women Pro) and 202 kg (Men Pro), and the rulebook is explicit that these are total system weight: the sled plus whatever plates are on it, not the plates alone.

That matters for home training. If you load 152 kg of plates onto your own sled, you are training heavier than the race. If you load 152 kg of plates minus your sled's tare weight, you are matching it.

Here is where we have to be honest about a gap: we could not confirm an official published figure for the bare sled in the 2026/27 rulebook. GOWOD's sled explainer makes the same point — Hyrox does not publish the sled's own base weight separately, so you cannot work backwards to the plate load. Third-party guides commonly estimate the empty competition sled at around 32 kg, but that is an estimate rather than a published standard. If you are trying to replicate the exact load, weigh your own sled and subtract.

The other variable nobody can put in a table is friction. Hyrox pushes happen on thin carpet taped over a hard convention-centre floor, and as Fitness Experiment's station guide notes, that carpet can bunch during a race and some venues secure it better than others — which is why the same 152 kg feels different from venue to venue and much heavier than the same load on gym turf.

Sled pull: 78, 103 or 153 kg

The sled pull is also 50 m as four 12.5 m lengths, with the racer pulling the sled back toward them by rope from within a marked box. Loads for 2026/27 are 78 kg for Women Open, 103 kg for Men Open and Women Pro, and 153 kg for Men Pro — again quoted as total system weight including the sled.

Note the arithmetic: the pull is 24 kg lighter than the push in the Women Open column and 49 kg lighter in the other two. It is not a fixed percentage, so do not try to derive one division's pull from another's push.

Farmers carry: the Hyrox kettlebell weights

Two kettlebells, 200 m, carried with both arms extended at your sides. The rulebook lets you put the bells down to rest as often as you like, provided they do not move forward when you set them on the ground. Standards for 2026/27:

  • Women Open — 2 x 16 kg (about 2 x 35 lb)
  • Men Open and Women Pro — 2 x 24 kg (about 2 x 53 lb)
  • Men Pro — 2 x 32 kg (about 2 x 71 lb)

These are the classic competition kettlebell sizes, which is convenient: 16, 24 and 32 kg are stock weights in most gyms, so this is the easiest station to replicate exactly.

Sandbag lunges: Hyrox sandbag weight by division

One hundred metres of walking lunges with the bag across the shoulders. The 2026/27 loads are 10 kg for Women Open, 20 kg for Men Open and Women Pro, and 30 kg for Men Pro — a clean doubling and tripling of the entry-level load, which makes this the station with the steepest relative jump between Open and Pro.

The bag weight is only half the story. The distance is fixed at 100 m for every division, and the rulebook requires alternating lunges with the trailing knee making contact. A 20 kg bag is not heavy in isolation; it is heavy at the back end of the 100 m — station guides put the count somewhere between 80 and 120 lunges, depending on your stride — with a 1 km run still ahead of you.

Wall balls: Hyrox wall ball weight for women and men

Wall balls carry two numbers, and skipping the second one is the most common mistake in unofficial charts. Every singles division does 100 reps. What changes is the ball weight and the target height.

| Division | Ball | Target | | --- | --- | --- | | Women Open | 4 kg / 8.8 lb | 2.70 m | | Men Open | 6 kg / 13.2 lb | 3.00 m | | Women Pro | 6 kg / 13.2 lb | 2.70 m | | Men Pro | 9 kg / 19.8 lb | 3.00 m |

The rulebook also colour-codes the balls — white for 4 kg, grey for 6 kg, black for 9 kg — so you can identify your ball on the floor without weighing it. Women and Women Pro both throw to 2.70 m (roughly 8 ft 10 in); Men and Men Pro both throw to 3.00 m (roughly 9 ft 10 in).

The Women Pro jump is the one to plan for: same 2.70 m target, 50% more ball. If you are buying a ball to train with, our guide to the best wall ball for Hyrox covers how to match the race spec at home.

Doubles and relay weight standards

The most persistent myth in Hyrox is that doubles weights are lighter. They are not.

According to the official Hyrox Doubles Rulebook for 2026/27, the loads are identical to singles across all five doubles divisions:

| Station | Doubles Women | Doubles Men / Women Pro / Mixed | Doubles Men Pro | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Sled push, 4 x 12.5 m | 102 kg | 152 kg | 202 kg | | Sled pull, 4 x 12.5 m | 78 kg | 103 kg | 153 kg | | Farmers carry, 200 m | 2 x 16 kg | 2 x 24 kg | 2 x 32 kg | | Sandbag lunges, 100 m | 10 kg | 20 kg | 30 kg | | Wall balls, 100 reps | 4 kg | 6 kg | 9 kg |

What changes is the split, not the load. Both team members run together for the full 8 km, and at each station one works while the other waits in the marked area behind them — so the pair divides 100 wall balls, 200 m of carry and 100 m of lunges between them however they like. Note that Doubles Mixed sits in the middle column, on the same loads as Doubles Men and Doubles Women Pro.

Relay is a four-person team, and the official Relay Rulebook for 2026/27 publishes just two load columns:

| Station | Relay Women | Relay Men | | --- | --- | --- | | Sled push, 4 x 12.5 m | 102 kg | 152 kg | | Sled pull, 4 x 12.5 m | 78 kg | 103 kg | | Farmers carry, 200 m | 2 x 16 kg | 2 x 24 kg | | Sandbag lunges, 100 m | 10 kg | 20 kg | | Wall balls, 100 reps | 4 kg | 6 kg |

There is no Pro relay — the heaviest relay loads are the Open men's numbers. Each relay member runs 2 x 1 km and completes the two matching stations, and the team decides who takes what.

One honest gap: relay offers a Mixed division (two women, two men), but the rulebook's weights table lists only Women and Men columns. We could not confirm a separately published load column for Mixed relay, so if you are entering Mixed, ask the event team which column applies to which leg rather than assuming.

What does not change between divisions

Roughly half the race is the same for everyone. Across singles, doubles and relay, the 2026/27 rulebooks set these identically:

  • Running — 8 x 1 km, 8 km total, before every station.
  • SkiErg — 1,000 m. The damper is preset to resistance 6 for all divisions, and racers may change it as often as they like.
  • Burpee broad jumps — 80 m.
  • Rowing — 1,000 m.
  • Sled distances — 50 m each, as 4 x 12.5 m.
  • Farmers carry distance — 200 m.
  • Lunge distance — 100 m.
  • Wall ball reps — 100.

So when you move from Open to Pro, you are not doing more work in volume terms. You are doing exactly the same work with substantially more weight — which is why the Pro conversation is a strength conversation, not an endurance one.

Training relative to race weight

We are not going to prescribe loads here, because the right training weight depends on your training age, your history and what your body tolerates. But the pattern that recurs across published Hyrox coaching advice is straightforward enough to state:

  • Most athletes train at or just above race weight on the sleds, so that race-day friction feels like a known quantity rather than a shock.
  • Most train at race weight for high-rep stations — wall balls and lunges — because the limiter there is fatigue and technique under fatigue, not maximal strength.
  • Many train mixed loads on the carries, going heavier than race weight for shorter distances and lighter for longer unbroken sets.

The one thing worth checking before you chase a Pro number: whether you can hold position under it. If a load changes your lunge or your overhead throw mechanics, that is information. Build the pattern first, then the load. If anything hurts, that is a conversation for a qualified professional, not a spreadsheet.

Check your race pack before you commit

Three reasons to treat this page as a starting point rather than gospel:

  1. Standards are set per season. These figures are the 2026/27 rulebooks. Hyrox revises its rulebooks each season — the 2026/27 edition brought changes to station completion rules, SkiErg technique and burpee broad jump standards, so weights can move too.
  2. Rulebooks are split by format. Singles, doubles, relay and adaptive each have their own document. Reading the singles table and entering doubles is how people get surprised.
  3. Venues vary. Equipment brand, carpet condition and floor surface all change how the same kilogram figure feels, even though the published load stays the same.

Before race day, download the current rulebook for your format from hyrox.com and read the event information pack for your venue. It takes ten minutes and it is the only version of these numbers that is guaranteed to be the one you race.

The bottom line

Five stations carry weight, and they scale in three tiers rather than four: Women Open, then Men Open and Women Pro together, then Men Pro. Memorise the sleds — 102/152/202 kg on the push and 78/103/153 kg on the pull, both including the sled — and the rest of the table follows a familiar pattern of 16/24/32 kg bells, 10/20/30 kg bags and 4/6/9 kg balls. Doubles and relay use the same loads as singles; only the workload split changes.

Bookmark this page, then go build the engine that moves those numbers. Our guide to Hyrox training at home covers how to replicate the sleds, carries and wall balls without a competition floor — and once your training loads match the table above, race day stops being an unknown quantity.

What to know before you buy

Field Notes

How heavy is the Hyrox sled push?

As of the 2026/27 season, the official Hyrox Singles Rulebook lists the sled push at 102 kg for Women Open, 152 kg for Men Open and Women Pro, and 202 kg for Men Pro. Those figures are total system weight — the sled plus the plates loaded on it — not the added plates alone. The distance is 50 m for every division, run as four 12.5 m lengths.

What weight is the women's Hyrox sandbag?

Women Open lunge with a 10 kg sandbag (22 lb) and Women Pro lunge with 20 kg (44 lb), according to the 2026/27 Singles Rulebook. The distance is 100 m in both cases. The same two loads apply in doubles — Doubles Women use 10 kg and Doubles Women Pro use 20 kg — and Relay Women use 10 kg, with a single team member covering the full 100 m.

Do Hyrox weights change by age group?

No. The 2026/27 rulebook lists age groups from Under 24 up to 85-89, but the weights table is split by division only, not by age. A 55-year-old in Men Open pushes the same 152 kg sled as a 25-year-old in Men Open. The one wrinkle: at the Hyrox World Championships, athletes in the 60+ age groups compete using Open weights, repetitions and distances.

Are Hyrox doubles weights lighter than singles?

No. The 2026/27 Doubles Rulebook lists exactly the same loads as singles — 102/152/202 kg sled push, 10/20/30 kg sandbag, 4/6/9 kg wall balls. What changes is the workload split: partners divide the reps and station distance between them while one rests, and both must run the full 8 km together. Same weight on the bar, half the reps.
