This form of exercise involves participants completing a set of standardised exercises, such as running, rowing, and various functional movements, across different stations. The goal is to test both strength and stamina in a competitive, yet inclusive environment, suitable for all fitness levels. While "HYROX" itself doesn’t stand for specific words, it represents this structured combination of endurance and strength challenges.
It's important to eat a balanced meal that provides energy and sustains performance. Focus on consuming a mix of carbohydrates for energy, such as oats, rice, or whole grains, and lean proteins like chicken, fish, or eggs to support muscle function. You can also include some healthy fats, such as avocado or nuts, to help maintain energy levels.
If you're competing in a HYROX competition, it’s best to eat 2-3 hours before the event to allow proper digestion, and stay hydrated by drinking water leading up to the event. A small, easily digestible snack, like a banana or energy bar, can be eaten 30-60 minutes before starting.
HYROX is designed to test overall fitness, focusing on both cardiovascular endurance and strength, making it suitable for a wide range of fitness levels. It's often described as a mix between traditional endurance races and functional fitness competitions like CrossFit. It consists of a standardised format where participants complete a series of functional workout stations, such as sled pushes, burpees, and rowing, sprinkled with some 1 km runs.
At our gym in Telford, our HYROX classes provide a challenging blend of endurance and functional strength exercises, designed to help you build stamina, power, and overall fitness.
