Take Your Training To The Next Level

HYROX FOR EVERYBODY

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE IN HYROX?

HYROX is the fitness for everybody. If you are at least 16 years old and want to take on the sporting challenge, you are welcome to HYROX! There are four different formats to choose from, covering every fitness level. Did you know that our oldest hyrox race participant is 77 years old and crosses the finish line with a smile on his face?

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT WORKOUTS?

HYROX includes a mix of eight 1km runs alternating with eight different workouts. The individual stations are: (1) SkiErg, (2) Sled Push, (3) Sled Pull, (4) Burpee Broad Jumps, (5) Rowing, (6) Farmers Carry, (7) Sandbag Lunges, and (8) Wall Balls.

PREPARE FOR HYROX

50% IS RUNNING

Some love it, others rather not think about it! A HYROX race consists of 8 kilometers of running, split into 8 times 1 kilometer. So get that running into your training and build up your cardio, as you will be out for an average of 90 minutes. It is also important to experience running after working the legs and arms, so simulate that Race Experience at home or in the gym. Ever wondered how you run after pushing a 125kg sled for 50 meters? Or after your heartrate spikes during 80m of Burpee Broad Jumps. So mix up your training and you will start to enjoy your running more and more.

LEARN THE MOVEMENT STANDARDS

It is important to familiarize yourself with the HYROX movement standards so that you train the exercises in the right manner and avoid bad movements and potential injuries. Experiment in the gym with your Certified HYROX Coach with various techniques that can be applied and find the one that works best for you.

DON’T START TOO FAST

We see it over and over again! People running their Personal Best during the first kilometer and pushing hard through the SkiErg. Who wouldn’t? The energy, the excitement in the venue, the music, friends and family cheering you on. However, it is an endurance event, and can be compared to a half Marathon or an Olympic Distance Triathlon. So pace yourself, find your rhythm, control your heart rate, and you will perform at your best.
