Station 1 of 8
Hyrox SkiErg 1000m
1,000 metres on a SkiErg, straight off the first run. Arms, lats and core pull the handles down while the legs add a small bend.
Typical times and loads
Fresh is a typical time done on its own. Race split is the same effort raced after a run, slowed by typical fatigue, which is what the finish is built from.
| Category | Load | Fresh | Race split |
|---|---|---|---|
| Open Women | Body weight | 4:45 | 5:14 |
| Open Men | Body weight | 4:05 | 4:30 |
| Pro Women | Body weight | 4:45 | 5:14 |
| Pro Men | Body weight | 4:05 | 4:30 |
What a faster SkiErg is worth
Take 30 seconds off a fresh SkiErg 1000m and the predicted finish comes down by about 33 seconds. The station is raced tired, so time saved fresh is worth a little more on race day.
One thing that helps
Legs are fresh and the crowd is loud, so it is easy to go out too hard. Settle into a pace you could hold for the rower later, and let the hips hinge rather than pulling with the arms alone.
