My gym is offering HYROX training starting in August, and it will be held every Saturday for 15 weeks. I’m excited, nervous, and very curious because HYROX feels like a whole different beast — strength, endurance, running, pacing, and mindset all in one. For those who are doing HYROX or thinking about it, are you joining a training program in your area too? I know different gyms may offer HYROX-style prep, so I would love to hear how everyone is training for it. For anyone who has done HYROX or is currently training, please share your wisdom: 👉 Have you tried the HYROX gels? 👉 Do you carry your own water? 👉 Any fueling tips before or during the race? 👉 Any hacks for the sled push, sled pull, wall balls, farmers carry, or running in between stations? 👉 What helped you most with pacing so you don’t burn out too fast? I’m open to all the tips, tricks, lessons learned, and “I wish I knew this before” advice. Let’s make this a HYROX knowledge-share thread for everyone training or curious about it. We can all learn from each other and get stronger together 💪🔥

What do you do when you have a stiff knee. I’ve been to physio it’s not damaged. But I feel more tired than normal. I go for walks in the morning and evening. I did a yoga warmup this morning 10 mins that’s all. My walk is about 1 hour. It’s been stiff for a good week and is getting better. But I’m scared to jog or bike yet.

I would be making more progress if.... Lovely time! See you next week.

Tomorrow is Canada Day and my first day off in a long time. We are going to the beach Grand bend !! It takes us about 2 hours to get there. So I’m planning to bring something for lunch. Watermelon 🍉 Sandwich 🥪 Veggies 🥗 We are going to eat at pizza delight for dinner. It’s one of the last one around. I’m planning to have the chicken skillet. It’s fajitas chicken with onions and peppers and I can have it with no sauce. Having said all that I want to have something salty I can snack on the beach 🏖️ and in the car. I don’t know if I should bust a bunch of calories on some chips or popcorn or if I will want to have some ice cream 🍦. Any suggestions?

“I’d be making better progress if I could just figure out ______.” I’ll answer as many as I can on tomorrow’s call. No technical difficulties tomorrow, promise!
