Train for HYROX at CrossFit Full Strength
Every day here is HYROX training—Wednesdays & Saturdays are race simulations; the rest of the week builds the strength and engine to crush it.
Our HYROX Endurance sessions run Wednesdays (all day) and Saturdays at 8:00 AM. The rest of the week develops the strength, stamina, and efficiency for every station—sled push/pull, lunges, carries, wall balls, rowing, and steady run pacing—so you’re race-ready.
I only see HYROX on Wednesday & Saturday—how do I train the rest of the week?
Our daily CrossFit programming is built for HYROX: running/erg volume, carries, lunges, wall balls, sled work (when programmed),
plus progressive strength. Do Wed + Sat, then add 2–3 regular classes per week for complete coverage.
Can CrossFit really prepare me for HYROX?
Absolutely. HYROX blends aerobic capacity with repeatable strength under fatigue—exactly what CrossFit develops.
We use intervals, longer engine pieces, and strength cycles so you can hold pace and push through every station.
I can’t make Wednesdays. What should I do?
Hit Saturday HYROX, then choose two engine-leaning classes and one strength day.
Add a 30–45 min easy Zone 2 run/row on your own each week.
How does Olympic lifting help with HYROX?
Olympic lifts (clean & jerk, snatch) build explosive full-body power, speed, and coordination—direct carryover to sled pushes/pulls,
stronger lunges, and more efficient wall balls. It’s a performance edge you won’t get in typical bootcamps, and it’s a big reason
CrossFit Full Strength athletes feel stronger on race day.
Do you train sleds?
Yes. Sled pushes and pulls are programmed regularly, alongside front squats, step-downs, lunges, and heavy carries to keep your legs race-ready.
What weights do mixed pairs or relay teams use?
HYROX uses men’s weights on shared stations for mixed-gender divisions—we mirror that in partner workouts when applicable so you’re race-ready.
How many days per week is ideal?
3–4 days (build base)
Sat HYROX · 2 classes (engine + strength) · Optional 30–45 min Zone 2
5 days (race prep)
Wed HYROX · Sat HYROX · 2–3 classes · Easy Zone 2 once/week
How long to get race-ready?
Most athletes see strong results in 8–12 weeks; beginners often target 12–16 weeks for pacing and confidence.
Can non-members drop in for HYROX days?
Yes—please reserve in advance so we can set your lane, load, and pacing.
