HYROX WORKOUT

RACE-READY CONDITIONING

Training for your first HYROX? Tackle this session from HYROX Master Trainer and Represent 247 athlete Jake Dearden

This workout contains a mixture of different HYROX-specific movements, aiming to mirror a HYROX race but on a smaller scale. The mixture of running and functional movements prepares you for that race-day feeling, where you will inevitably be working on compromised legs. I’d recommend doing this type of simulation workout once or maximum twice a week. Part two of the workout is optional, but is for anyone wanting to work on improving their cardiovascular capacity for those all-important running splits during a HYROX race. The finisher imitates the final station of HYROX: wall balls.
