HYROX race preparation workshop

HYROX Technical Workshop: The Little Things That Can Make a Big Difference

September 14, 20262 min read

Racing HYROX isn’t just about being fit. Knowing how to approach each station, understanding the official standards, and having a few tricks up your sleeve can make a surprisingly big difference on race day.

That’s why we’re doing something a little different with our HYROX class on Sunday, September 20 at 8:00 AM.

Instead of our usual training session, we’ll be running a HYROX Technical Workshop, going through the points of performance, movement standards, tips and tricks for the official race.

A Perfect Follow-Up to the Empower HYROX Half

The workshop comes the morning after our Empower HYROX Half on Saturday, September 19.

If you’re competing in the Half, chances are your body will appreciate something a little less demanding the next morning! Instead of another hard workout, Sunday will be an opportunity to recover while learning from what you experienced the day before.

What slowed you down? Where did you waste energy? Which movements felt awkward? What could you do differently in a full HYROX race?

We’ll dig into the details that can help you move more efficiently and confidently when it counts.

And even if you’re not participating in the Half, the workshop is a great opportunity to improve your HYROX race knowledge and preparation.
