A personal trainer in Michigan,
without the hourly rate.
There are 60 named gyms and sports centres across Detroit, Grand Rapids and Warren, Pure Barre and Planet Fitness among them, and the programme is written around whichever one you use. There is no HYROX in Michigan yet. The nearest is Chicago, roughly 379 km from Detroit in a straight line, and the programme is dated backwards from whichever race you enter. Online personal training from HYROX Elite 15 athlete Ben Sutherland, rebuilt every Sunday from what you logged.

Straight-line distance, so the drive is longer. Far enough that a race is a weekend rather than a morning, which changes the taper more than it changes the training — you want to arrive with a day in hand rather than racing off a flight.

What to look for is not a HYROX sticker on the door. It is a sled lane long enough to push on, a spare wall for wall balls, and a rower nobody queues for at 6pm. These are the named sites in the state's largest metros.
