░ TECHNIQUE LIBRARY

Move well.
Then move fast.

Cues, common mistakes, and scaling for every Hyrox station and the strength lifts the coach will program.

Hyrox station

SkiErg 1000m

Standing double-pole motion driven by hips and lats. Power comes from the snap, not the arms.

Hyrox station

Sled Push 50m

Low body angle, short choppy steps, constant contact with the sled.

Hyrox station

Sled Pull 50m

Hand-over-hand rope pull while walking backward, then drag and reset.

Hyrox station

Burpee Broad Jumps 80m

Chest-to-floor burpee, jump up, broad jump forward. Repeat until 80m.

Hyrox station

Row 1000m

Legs–back–arms on the drive, arms–back–legs on the recovery. 60/30/10 power split.

Hyrox station

Farmers Carry 200m

Heavy implement in each hand, walk fast and tall. Grip + posture decide the split.

Hyrox station

Sandbag Lunges 100m

Sandbag on shoulders, walking lunges, back knee tap, no resting on the bag.

Hyrox station

Wall Balls 100 reps

Full squat, then explosive throw to a 3m (M) or 2.75m (W) target. Catch and re-squat in one motion.

Strength

Back Squat

King of leg strength. Bar across the upper traps (high-bar) or rear delts (low-bar).

Strength

Deadlift

Conventional pull from the floor. Posterior-chain builder, grip builder, race-day insurance.

Strength

Romanian Deadlift (RDL)

Hip-hinge with soft knees. Builds hamstrings + glutes for sled and lunges.

Strength

Strict Pull-Up

Dead hang to chin over the bar. Pure upper-body pulling strength.

Strength

Bench Press

Horizontal press. Bar from chest to lockout with stable shoulders.

Strength

Overhead Press (OHP)

Strict press from front rack to lockout overhead. No leg drive.

Strength

Walking Lunges

Loaded walking lunges build single-leg strength and Hyrox-specific endurance.

Conditioning

Kettlebell Swing (Russian)

Hip-hinge ballistic. Swings to chest height, posterior chain drives, arms guide.

Warm-up

Race-Day Warm-Up (10 min)

Pulse raise → dynamic mobility → station primer. Run this before any hard session or race.

Warm-up

Pre-Run Dynamic Routine (5 min)

Quick movement prep before any run-focused session.

Mobility

Hip Mobility Flow

Daily 6-min flow for sled push, lunge depth, and squat positioning.

Mobility

T-Spine & Shoulder Mobility

For SkiErg, OHP, and overhead lockout. Run 3× week post-training.

Mobility

Ankle & Calf Mobility

Critical for sled push drive and lunge depth. 5 min, daily if tight.

Cool-down

Post-Session Cool-Down (8 min)

Bring HR down, flush legs, set up for tomorrow's session.

Cool-down

Race-Day Cool-Down

Reduce post-race stiffness and accelerate next-day recovery.
