It’s not just aerobic endurance though that plays a part in HYROX, but also muscular endurance. For example, you need muscular endurance to be able perform 100 meters of sandbag lunges, once you are already well into the event. And then you need to be able to run another 1km after, followed by 75/100 wall balls! Bearing this in mind, some of your gym work should be at higher rep ranges than your pure strength work (more on that below). Number two would be the lunges, because they can be overlooked. They’re towards the end, maybe an hour or an hour and 15 minutes in, and it’s 200 metres of lunging over and over again. At that point in the competition, you need to have that extra energy and your legs need to be able to manage that. So the lunges are something that you should focus on in training too. And then in third place, I’d say running. I mean, it’s so obvious, but people struggle! Can you train for a HYROX at home? It is an important station where there is a large variability in the times that athletes complete it in. But, unlike with other stations where that applies, you can push yourself to your absolute limit to get them done because it’s the end of the race. This is where leaving something in the tank goes out the window – by the time you reach the wall balls your tank will likely be almost empty, and you should use the wall balls to fully empty it! How best to train for HYROX depends a little on where you’re coming from. If we were to start with a beginner or someone who’s not familiar with HYROX, the best thing to do is build their base fitness, building endurance and strength.
A coworker of mine bought my book, which was her trying to be supportive. My book also really wasn't in a genre she read. She got home and read a little bit of it before going to bed. The following day she went to work, as she always did. She left the book at her house, and her husband found it. She went home after her shift to find her husband reading it. He was so entrenched in the story that he couldn't put it down. She actually had to fight with her husband for him to let her read it. It was somewhat of a point of contention until one of them finally finished it. Her husband later said, "It was such a good story that he didn't want to wait to see what happened next. Much of your strength training, for maximum effectiveness, would normally be done away from your endurance sessions (though as you approach closer to a HYROX race, you may look to combine the two so as to get used to the strength work in a more aerobically compromised state). The IRM Risk Register is an online tool providing a platform for healthcare organizations to identify, assess and manage key organizational risks. Our Integrated Risk Management for Healthcare Organizations guide and the Taxonomy of Healthcare Organizational Risks supports it. In terms of what sort of running workouts to do, a mixture of slow, steady state running (in heart rate zone 2), combined with other sessions of high speed, shorter distance, intervals, can normally work very well. You will also want to do some interval sessions at your expected race pace, especially as you get closer to the event. Exactly what, how often, and how far you run will depend on you, your history, and existing capabilities.with each rep, on the concentric part of the movement, rather than just straightening your legs, also go up on to your toes slightly, lifting your heels off the floor. This adds a little extra power and preserves energy elsewhere in the body. Note – this is a personal preference – I’ve heard other people say they don’t like this – so test it out in training. That session helped to improve my carries and pulls, as well as my aerobic endurance, all in a compromised state.
when you have the ball in your hands, you want to keep it as close to the body as possible. Holding it out away from you will put extra pressure on the shoulders, and waste valuable energy.Do you know about HIROC’s value add? Our educational events and world-class resources include everything you need to start talking about risk. With an ever-growing population, hospitals, clinics, midwifery groups, family health teams, and other healthcare organizations must equip themselves with practical risk and safety knowledge. Through working together, we can create the safest healthcare system. Properly recovering from a full HYROX can take several days, and if you’re doing them too often you could end up overly fatiguing yourself, potentially leading to injury or adversely impacting the rest of your training. It’s also generally not optimal. For example, the best way to improve your lunges probably isn’t to just do 100m of weighted lunges each week. Splitting up the total you do into more manageable sets, perhaps with heavier weights, can often be more effective, as well as being easier to recover from. when catching the ball, try to have already just started the squat movement downward. This is much more efficient than catching the ball with straight legs, and then beginning your squat. One thing to remember is that you don’t need to just train for running. The 1km runs will be required after the taxing functional stations, meaning that you will be running in a compromised state. Running 1km on fresh legs, feels very different to running 1km after 100meters of walking lunges, for example. Therefore, getting comfortable with compromised running is important. As you get closer to the event in particular, some sessions which involve compromised running will likely be appropriate.
