Hey gang. I hope you are all well and smashing the Wall Ball Challenge so far. Is there any one of you guys going to NICE this week? It is gonna be a great week of fitness.. beautiful city.. and I should be running a couple of shake out runs there!! I would love to have you guys joining me!! Gus

Week 2 of the HYROX Station Challenge is now live in the Classroom. Week 1 was about setting the baseline and understanding the demands of the station. Week 2 is about adding exposure and consistency, not chasing results yet. Nothing fancy. Just showing up, repeating quality work and letting adaptation start to happen. What to focus on this week... - Follow the sessions as written - Control your pacing - no rushing reps - Stay consistent across all 5 sessions this week - Pay attention to how fatigue shows up, not how “fit” you feel Progress comes from accumulation, not single sessions. 👉 Use this thread for: - Questions about this week’s workouts - Feedback on how the station feels - Anything that’s unclear Look forward to reading your comments this week! Let's go!! 🚀

This session is about controlled speed. Each fast rep should feel sharp and repeatable, with the jog used to bring breathing back under control...not to switch off. The time caps are there to keep the quality high and the mechanics clean. If pace drops off across the set, you’ve gone too hard early. The goal is consistency from the first 100m to the final 400m. Check the image for full details and performance guidance before you try this one. Let me know how it goes!

This month we’re focusing on one station...because that’s where races are decided. This month our focus is on WallBalls! The goal isn’t to smash yourself...it is to make this station controlled, repeatable and predictable under fatigue. What to do today - Complete today’s baseline session (100 Wallballs for Time) - Be honest with your effort ...this is our starting point - Comment your score below once finished 👉 You’ll find today’s session in the Classroom. There are 5 sessions each week, posted and structured for you. Do the work as written. Control the effort. Let the process do its job. If you have any questions at all...write it on the community page here with "hyrox station challenge" as the tag so everyone can benefit. Let’s get started! Looking forward to seeing some times come through! 💪🏽

Hi everyone, I wanted to share a short reflection after racing HYROX this past weekend, in case it’s useful for others going through a similar process. I returned to HYROX almost two years after my last race, coming off a not-so-fun period that included a complete ankle ligament rupture and a bone contusion. I only started running with minimal pain about four months ago, so at the beginning of the 12-week prep my expectations were… let’s say carefully optimistic. As the weeks went by, confidence slowly built and the idea of a PB stopped feeling crazy and started feeling possible. In the end, I took almost 4 minutes off my previous best and had one of the most controlled races I can remember. Apart from the first run — where adrenaline still convinces me I’m fitter than I really am — four of my run segments were identical to the second. The gap between my fastest and slowest was just 16 seconds, which for me felt like a small miracle. The workouts were solid, but also gave me a clear lesson. In a few stations I was probably too cautious. Lack of confidence and aggression meant I left some time on the table. Ironically, some of the workouts I thought were strengths ended up being weaker on race day — most likely because I’d got a bit too comfortable with them in training. A good reminder that comfort can quietly become complacency. What really stood out to me was how clean the overall strategy felt. The guidance and discussions within this community helped me race with much more clarity and intention. The programming made complete sense, the taper felt spot on, and I arrived on the start line full of energy and motivation — exactly how you want to feel. I’m now shifting focus into a longer development phase with the Hybrid Racer Program and aiming toward a race in July. The goal is to keep building on this foundation, especially by improving execution and confidence within the workouts. Taking another few minutes off of PB might be to ambitious — but that’s part of the fun.
