First Hyrox, your complete preparation guide
Suth Performance's First Race programme is built for someone who's never raced Hyrox and may not have done a CrossFit-style workout before. The 12 weeks build aerobic capacity, station competence, and race-pattern familiarity, in that order.
You don't need to be a sub-25 runner. You don't need a CrossFit gym. You need 4 hours a week and a willingness to follow a plan written by Elite 15 coaches.
race-day
The 90-minute Hyrox race-day warm-up: minute-by-minute
A bad warm-up costs you 3-5 minutes on race day. A good one costs nothing. The exact 90-minute protocol Suth Performance athletes use, from arrival to start gun.
technique
Hyrox burpee broad jump: technique, breathing, and the rhythm that saves the back end
The burpee broad jump is where pacing goes to die. Twenty metres of compounding fatigue. The technique fixes, breathing pattern, and scaling options that protect the second half of your race.

What to expect, how to train, how to fuel, and how to pace yourself. A start-to-finish guide for anyone signing up for their first Hyrox race.
race-day
Hyrox race-day pacing: the eight stations, the seven runs, the one mistake nobody warns you about
Race-day pacing decides whether the build pays off or quietly falls apart at minute 60. A station-by-station plan, the warm-up that works, and the one error first-timers always make.
training
The 12-week Hyrox training plan: structure, progression, and what each week is for
A week-by-week breakdown of the standard 12-week Hyrox build. What changes week to week, why the order matters, and how to adapt it to your life.
technique
Hyrox sled push: technique, programming, and the mistakes that cost minutes
The sled push is where most first-timers lose two to four minutes. Body position, breathing, and pacing fixes that transfer to race day.
technique
Hyrox wall balls: weight, technique, scaling, and the rep count that breaks people
The final station. 100 reps for men, 75 for women, after 7,000 metres of running and seven stations of work. How to make wall balls survivable.
