HYROX the new fitness trend.

Written By Gary Fillery

Hyrox is a global fitness race that combines functional strength training, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and endurance training. It aims to test well-rounded fitness through various elements like running, rowing, and strength exercises. The race consists of eight rounds, each including a 1km run followed by different functional exercises like SkiErg, sledge push, sledge pull, burpee broad jumps, rowing, farmers carry, sandbag lunges, and wall balls.

Key benefits of participating in Hyrox include:

  • Improving athletic performance by enhancing strength, endurance, and mobility.

  • It aids fat loss through intense training that burns calories.

  • Enhancing everyday activities and movements by improving strength and flexibility.

  • Providing a new challenge for gym enthusiasts to stay motivated and focused on their fitness goals.

  • Creating a sociable environment where participants are cheered on by spectators and connect with like-minded individuals in the HYSOCIETY community.

Training for a Hyrox event involves a mix of endurance running, cardio training, functional exercises, and strength training. It is essential to practice each functional exercise while complementing them with running and full-body exercises like press-ups and deadlifts to prepare adequately for the race
