8 Week HYROX Engine Builder
This 8-week HYROX program is designed to take you from your current fitness level to race-day ready — with a structured, progressive plan built specifically for the demands of HYROX competition.
The program is split into four phases — Foundation, Build, Peak, and Taper — ensuring you develop your engine, strength, and race execution in the right order, at the right time.
You’ll train 6 days per week using a combination of running, strength, and HYROX-specific sessions that mirror real race demands. Each week is carefully structured to progressively increase intensity, before tapering you into race day feeling sharp, confident, and fully prepared.
All loads and paces are based on relative effort and race-specific standards, meaning no fixed weights or times — everything scales to your level using clear guidelines for:
- Race weight percentages (light, moderate, heavy, overload)
- % of 1RM for strength work
- Running zones based on pace or effort (RPE)
What’s included:
- 8 weeks of structured training (6 sessions per week)
- Progressive HYROX simulations (4 to 6 stations)
- Running plan (intervals, tempo, race pace, aerobic work)
- Strength programming aligned with race demands
- Sled progression (including overload phases)
- Clear pacing and load guidance for all levels
Best for:
Athletes with a HYROX race in 8 weeks who want a clear, structured plan to improve performance, build confidence, and execute on race day.
By the end of the program, you’ll be fully prepared to handle race pace, transitions, and station demands — and perform at your best when it matters.This 8-week HYROX program is designed to take you from your current fitness level to race-day ready — with a structured, progressive plan built specifically for the demands of HYROX competition.

HYROX Performance Build: 12-Week Race Prep System
$139
This 12-week HYROX program is designed for athletes who want more time to build, refine, and peak — delivering a complete system to maximize performance on race day.
Structured across four progressive phases — Foundation, Build, Peak, and Taper — this program gives you the time to properly develop your aerobic engine, strength capacity, and race-specific execution without rushing the process.
You’ll train 6 days per week with a balanced combination of running, strength, and HYROX-specific sessions that evolve as you progress. Volume and intensity are strategically layered to build durability early, push performance in the middle weeks, and sharpen race readiness at the end.
All loads and paces are prescribed using relative effort and race-based standards, allowing athletes of any level to apply the program effectively. You’ll use clear guidelines for:
Race weight percentages (light, moderate, heavy, overload)
% of 1RM for strength progression
Running zones based on pace or RPE
What’s included:
12 weeks of structured training (6 sessions per week)
Progressive HYROX simulations (4 to full 8-station race efforts)
Comprehensive running plan (aerobic base, threshold, race pace, intervals)
Strength progression with longer development phases
Advanced sled progression including extended overload work
Clear pacing, scaling, and execution guidance
Best for:
Athletes who want a longer runway to improve performance, build a bigger engine, and arrive at race day fully prepared — not just ready to finish, but ready to compete.
By the end of this program, you’ll have the strength, endurance, and race strategy to execute at a high level across every station and every kilometer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is this program for?
This program is designed for athletes preparing for a HYROX race. It’s suitable for both first-time competitors and those looking to improve their performance, as all loads and paces are scaled using relative effort.
Do I need prior HYROX experience?
No. While the program is race-specific, all movements, loads, and running intensities are guided so you can adapt them to your current level.
What equipment do I need?
Access to standard HYROX-style equipment is recommended, including:
- Sled (push & pull)
- SkiErg and RowErg
- Dumbbells/Kettlebells (for carries)
- Sandbag
- Wall ball
If you don’t have access to all equipment, you can substitute similar movements where needed.
How long are the sessions?
Most sessions take 60 minutes depending on the day.
How are weights and running paces determined?
Everything is prescribed using race weight percentages, % of 1RM, and running zones based on pace or effort—so it’s fully individualized.
