  • Training for HYROX here

  • This gym has the equipment for 6 of 8 HYROX stations, counting kit that stands in for the real thing. 4 of those are the station's own equipment.
  • 1. SkiErg 1000m
    Not on this gym's equipment list. A rower trains the same pull and the same energy system, so it is the closest stand-in.
  • 2. Sled Push 4 x 12.5m
  • 3. Sled Pull 4 x 12.5m
  • 4. Burpee Broad Jumps 80m
    No equipment needed, so any gym with floor space can train it.
  • 5. Row 1000m
    Not on this gym's equipment list. A SkiErg is the usual substitute, and it is a station in its own right anyway.
  • 6. Kettlebell Farmers Carry 200m
  • 7. Sandbag Lunges 100m
  • 8. Wall Balls 100 reps
    Not listed here, but this gym has kit that stands in. A medicine ball against a solid wall, or dumbbell thrusters where no wall will take it.
