The secret the Elite 15 isn’t telling you 👀

You see their insane workouts on Instagram.

Heavy sleds.

Fast compromised runs.

Brutal Hyrox simulations.

And you think:

“That must be how I need to train.”

But you’re seeing the highlight reel—not the entire training plan.

1. Aerobic base is a HUGE part of their training.

The crazy workouts make good content.

The hours of easier aerobic work usually don’t.

But that aerobic base is what allows elite athletes to recover faster, handle more training volume, and keep producing power late in a race.

2. Their training is periodized.

They’re not doing peak race workouts 52 weeks a year.

Different phases have different purposes.

Build the aerobic engine.

Build strength.

Develop Hyrox-specific fitness.

Increase race specificity.

Peak.

Race.

Recover.

That’s very different from finding the hardest Hyrox workout you can do every day.

Don’t copy someone’s highlight workout.

Understand the system that allowed them to handle it.
