Those are the three most common techniques used in Hyrox. Whether it be an open or pro category.

I always suggest practise all three. Choose which one is best suited to your strengths for the event.

Practise it over and over until it becomes second nature and you don’t have to think about it when you’re under pressure.

Practise the other techniques so you know them incase your first choice tires on the day of the event.

Enjoy!!

𝘼𝙡𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙢𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙞𝙜 3 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙩𝙨…

There is always an alternative to every exercise and if you’re new to gyms try not to be intimidated by people doing the big lifts.

The bench press, squats and deadlifts, are three great movements and ones everyone can learn and progress really well with.

Yet if you not confident yet about getting under a bar there are alternative exercise which work exactly the same muscle groups.

If you’d like to know how to do all 3 give me a shout and we can run through them.

These guys are amazing, not allowing their physical disability to hinder them competing!

It’s also great that Hyrox adapts the course to allow these athletes to compete.

This is the good in Hyrox.

I’ve shared the course will several adapted athletes and they always leave me amazed with their strength, physically and mentally!

Please don’t tell me you can’t do a Hyrox, tell me you don’t want to do a Hyrox.

Running can be a great way to exercise. Pop on your trainers and go for a run.

If you’re wanting to improve your running and get faster and further, just running over and over may not help you become a better runner.

Different types of running may help you improve your overall running paces and Vo2 max.

Looking to add easy run, threshold/speed runs and longer runs will help your body recover but allow for the adaptations to help you run further and faster.

If you’re looking to train for half or full marathon feel free to DM for some advice and training programs.

𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙖 𝙬𝙚𝙚𝙠𝙚𝙣𝙙 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙃𝙮𝙧𝙤𝙭!….

The reel says it all really! For me there’s no place nor excuse for this behaviour, accidental or not.

This type of behaviour shouldn’t be normalised or accepted

Hyrox has been very fast to change the rule book. Not that I think this needs to be explained or mentioned!

Meet the Hyrox coaches….Matt Inness.

Matt will be one of the coaches on the Hyrox open days. He has a vast amount of knowledge in Hyrox from training, coaching, competing and level 1 qualified with Hyrox.

He’s been training and competing for the past 3 years, starting his journey in Manchester.

He loves the ski, but hates the lunges! (By the way they come before the wall balls!)

Matt’s advice is “know your running split times and how many times you’ll do a movement before having a break and know the basic rules of the event before doing the event”

Please please not the Puma X Hyrox Deviate Nitro Elite £210. Just why are they so expensive???? (And have a massive long name!)

What a price they are!

My first ever Hyrox I had a pair of Asics trainer around £40. They did the job with no issues.

I moved over the Saucony purely because of another endurance event I was training for, have I told you I’ve done an Ironman?!

They cost in a sale £100.

Make sure the trainer provides the right support for your gait, how you strike the floor when running. Make sure the stack height isn’t too great. I see people in 50mm stack height trainers and struggle in certain stations i.e. lunges. When putting pressure through the trainer with the sandbag on their shoulders their ankles wobble.

Remember to drive the ball of your foot into the ground, not along the ground.
