Puma Deviate Nitro 3 HYROX vs Puma Hyrox Deviate Nitro 4

Both are neutral, plated HYROX trainers from Puma, and the choice comes down to ride feel. The Deviate Nitro 3 HYROX has the higher 10mm drop, a 39mm heel stack and a full-length carbon PWRPLATE, so it suits runners who want a snappy, propulsive ride and a familiar heel-strike transition. The Deviate Nitro 4 HYROX drops to 8mm with a 38mm/30mm stack and a lighter build, which most owners find more stable and easier on the calves over long race days. Pick the 3 for pure speed and the 4 for all-day comfort and a more natural, lower ride.

• Choose the Deviate Nitro 3 HYROX if you want the higher drop, a bigger heel stack and the most aggressive carbon-plate pop for fast running and sled work.
• Choose the Deviate Nitro 4 HYROX if you prefer a lower, more stable 8mm drop, a lighter shoe and a smoother transition across mixed HYROX stations.
