How do I start Hyrox training in Buckie?

Take the three-minute quiz. It asks about your race date, experience, available days, and the equipment you can use in Buckie. You see your full Week 1, dated and structured, before you decide anything.

Do I have to be racing to start?

No. Plenty of athletes start training before they enter anything, then pick a date later. If you already know you are aiming at OVO Hydro in Glasgow, the programme builds backwards from it. If you don't, it builds towards general readiness until you choose.

Can I train for Hyrox at a normal gym in Buckie?

Yes, and most people do. There are 3 gyms and sports centres within reach of the centre of Buckie. Six of the eight stations substitute cleanly if the kit is not there, and the quiz asks what you have access to before it writes anything.

Do I need a Hyrox gym to follow the programme?

No. The quiz asks what you train with, a full Hyrox gym, a standard commercial gym, or a home setup, and your plan only includes work you can actually do. Substitutions are built in for every station.

I've never done Hyrox. Is this for beginners?

Yes. The First Race programme takes complete beginners to the finish line in 12 weeks. Ben coaches athletes from their first session to professional level, and the programming scales the same way.

How much does it cost?

Pricing is tailored to your goals and there is a cost-effective option for every budget. It starts with a free consultation with Ben, and you see your first week of training before you commit to anything.

Your programme counts back from Glasgow. Miss a week and Sunday's rebuild absorbs it — the plan bends, the race date doesn't.

[ Gyms in Buckie ]

Where you can train in Buckie.

Buckie is not spoilt for choice, which matters less than it sounds. Six of the eight stations need a sled, a rower, a ski erg, kettlebells and a wall, and most of that substitutes cleanly. Your programme is built around what you can actually get to.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Buckie.

Where to train in Buckie

Buckie has 3 places to train within reach. Not a wide field, and it means the sensible move is to build the programme around what one or two of them actually have rather than hunting for a perfect fit.

Closest to the centre you have Motion Fitness, Victoria Park and Buckie Swimming Pool & Fitness Centre, the nearest of them about 0.1 km out. Ring before you join and ask two questions: is there floor space to push a sled, and can you throw a ball at a wall. Those answers decide more than any membership tier.

Victoria Park and Buckie Swimming Pool & Fitness Centre are listed as sports centres rather than gyms. Multi-use sites are usually where the floor space is, which tends to be where the sled and carry work ends up happening.

Where to run around Buckie

There is no parkrun close to Buckie, so you will need to measure your own loop. Pick something flat you can repeat, run it every three or four weeks under the same conditions, and treat that time as your benchmark.

Racing from Buckie

Scottish Event Campus (SEC) is the nearest venue at roughly 217 km, so racing means a weekend away. Enter early, book the room at the same time, and treat the travel as part of the plan rather than an afterthought.

Between the race and the 3 places to train listed here, the constraint is rarely equipment. It is the calendar, which is why the programme is dated to a day rather than numbered by week.
