Competition Sleds in Action at Gymshark Battle Stations

When Gymshark brought Battle Stations to London, the arena was designed to challenge athletes at every level. Among the standout features were the BLK BOX Competition Sleds, offering a true test of strength, speed, and endurance.

Performance that feels like race day

The Competition Sled is built to meet fitness racing standards, with knurled grip poles and hand-placement markings that give athletes consistent control and precision. Across structured sessions and the VIP HYROX-style simulation, it gave participants a chance to push their limits with equipment that performs exactly as it would in competition.

Detachable poles, including the centre pole, made it easy to set up, transport, and load plates, while maintaining stability under heavy loads. Paired with the Competition Rope, sled pulls became a full-body challenge, combining strength, grip, and stamina in a single station.

Built for every athlete

From elite competitors to first-time participants, the sleds demanded focus and effort. They provided a tangible benchmark: the harder you push, the more results you see. This is the kind of training environment that encourages athletes to improve, measure performance, and embrace the grind.

Raising the standard for hybrid events

By integrating Competition Sleds into Battle Stations, Gymshark and BLK BOX created an arena that wasn’t just a workout, but a true performance experience. It’s a reminder that hybrid racing is about more than speed or size. It’s about precision, power, and preparation.
