How to Crush a HYROX Event
HYROX stands apart in the functional fitness space by demanding that athletes excel in a balanced blend of power, speed, and endurance—often under continuous or near-continuous effort across a ~60–90-minute race (for most competitors). This unique challenge requires athletes to tap into multiple energy systems, each of which is tasked with fueling different intensities and durations of work. However, as in any endurance-oriented competition, one energy system ultimately becomes the most dominant driver of success: the aerobic. system.
