Huge mistake I keep seeing in Hyrox Going out too fast on the Ski Erg. And it’s almost never a fitness problem. It’s an emotional problem. The adrenaline is pumping. The crowd is loud. You feel amazing. So you pull harder than you planned. Then 2–3 minutes later… You’re paying for it on the sled push. Before race day, know two numbers: 1. Your goal 500m pace 2. Your target strokes per minute When the race starts… Stick to them. No matter how good you feel. No matter what the athlete next to you is doing. No matter how excited you are. The Ski Erg is the first station. Not the finish line. The athletes who have the best races don’t start the fastest. They start the smartest. Discipline beats adrenaline every time. #Hyrox #HyroxTraining #SkiErg #RaceStrategy #HybridAthlete
