What is HYROX?

Imagine a competition where strength meets endless stamina, where each step you take feels like you’re conquering not just a workout but your own limits. HYROX is more than just a workout. It’s a functional fitness competition that merges the precision of weightlifting with the relentless pace of running. It’s designed for anyone eager to test their physical and mental fortitude, and it’s made for those who love to push beyond their comfort zone.

From the moment you start, the energy is electric. The buzz fills the air, and every workout is a step towards mastering your body, your breath, and your mental resilience.

A Glimpse into HYROX's Origins

Founded in 2017, HYROX was born out of a simple idea: create a fun yet challenging fitness competition that’s open to everyone. It quickly evolved into a global phenomenon, attracting fitness enthusiasts from around the world. Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or a newcomer, HYROX’s inclusive format ensures everyone can compete, succeed, and experience the rush of accomplishment that comes with every rep, every run, and every completed workout.

The HYROX Spirit at Fitness First

HYROX is more than a physical challenge, embodying the essence of teamwork, sportsmanship, resilience and perseverance. Every time you step into a HYROX workout, you’re surrounded by individuals with a common goal: pushing to be better, faster, stronger. It’s a journey of personal transformation, where you’ll face your fears and doubts head-on and emerge on the other side more confident and capable.

The camaraderie that builds during these workouts is unlike any other. Whether you're training solo or with a team, the energy and support from others in the club will keep you going, even when your legs feel like giving out and your muscles are screaming. It's in those moments of fatigue that the true spirit of HYROX shines. You’ll dig deep, push through and make it count.

Whether you’re gearing up for competition or simply want to elevate your fitness game, the HYROX Training Club is the place to do it. While the competition format is a signature element, our training at Fitness First also offers diverse training sessions that mimic aspects of the event to help you develop strength, endurance, and improve your overall fitness. You don't have to be preparing for an actual race to enjoy the benefits. Each workout is designed to improve your speed, stamina, and mental toughness.

A HYROX Race: What to Expect

Picture this: you’re at the starting line, the whistle blows, and you’re off - running at a steady pace for a kilometer. But there’s no time to rest when you finish. Instead, you’re immediately onto the next task, pulling against the resistance of a Ski Erg machine. Your muscles burn but you push through because you know what's coming: a grueling sled push, the weight of which seems to grow heavier with every step.

Next, the sled pull. With every inch you drag it across the floor, your arms shake, and your breath quickens. Before you even have a chance to catch your breath, you’re running again. Another kilometer. Then, burpee broad jumps. Explosive, relentless. Your body is pushed to work as one.

The rhythm of running and lifting continues, each phase testing a different aspect of your fitness. After rowing a grueling 1,000 meters, you’re gripping kettlebells for a farmers carry, lungs burning but determined to complete the circuit.

The sandbag lunges and wall balls that follow are the final trials. By this point, your entire body is on fire, but the finish line is in sight, and you push through, knowing the sense of accomplishment at the end will be worth every ounce of effort.

Each challenge demands focus, perseverance, and strength but most of all, it requires mental grit to keep moving when your body begs to stop.
