3 keys to getting started with Hyrox

If you’re new to Hyrox, don’t overcomplicate it.

Focus on these three things first.

1. Build your aerobic base.

Hyrox is an aerobic race.

Yes, there are sleds and wall balls.

But you’ll also run 8 kilometers.

The better your engine, the better you’ll recover between stations and the stronger you’ll finish.

2. Get stronger.

You don’t need to be a powerlifter.

But you do need enough strength to move efficiently through the sleds, carries, lunges, and wall balls without them draining your entire race.

Build strength first.

Then maintain it.

3. Master the Hyrox skills.

This is where most athletes leave free time on the course.

Learn how to:

• Ski Erg efficiently
• Push and pull the sled correctly
• Master the Burpee Broad Jump
• Row with great technique
• Cycle your wall balls

The less energy you waste, the faster you’ll race.

You don’t need the perfect training plan to get started.

You need a solid aerobic engine, enough strength, and great movement.

Master those three, and you’ll build a foundation that keeps paying you back every race.
