What is Hyrox?
HYROX is a global fitness race for every BODY. Participants from all around the world compete in the exact same format. The race starts with a 1 km run, followed by 1 functional movement, which repeats 8 times. This combination of functional exercises and endurance makes HYROX unique yet still attainable for people from varying athletic and fitness backgrounds. HYROX is the first and only mass-participation indoor fitness competition, creating a unique stadium-like atmosphere for all participants.
