FAQs
Should I train HYROX like a 5K?
No. HYROX is repeatability under fatigue. You need run quality, strength durability, and pacing discipline across stations.
How often should I do stations?
Often 1–2 mixed sessions per week is enough. More is not better if it breaks recovery.
What’s the key to improvement?
Fix one weak station and keep the first half conservative so you can execute late with good form.
