What Is Hyrox, and Why Did I Decide to Do It? đŞ
I embraced the challenge of Hyroxânow itâs your turn to reflect: Whatâs your next step?
Read Time: 3 mins âąď¸
This week, Iâm sharing my Hyrox experienceâa journey into endurance, strength, and stepping far outside my comfort zone.
As I unpack my lessons, I want you to reflect on something:
What do you do to challenge your body and mind?
How do you create space for growth and resilience?
Letâs dive in!
1ď¸âŁ What Is Hyrox, and Why Did I Do It?
Hyrox is an endurance fitness event where running meets functional workouts. Think sled pushes, running, lunges, rowing, and moreâ.
So, why did I sign up?
To test myself beyond my norm: Itâs easy to fall into comfortable habits, but thatâs where growth slows. I have been doing CrossFit for a while now, so anything over 1hour of exercise is completely different for my body!
To build resilience: Hyrox forced me to embrace discomfort and adapt, change my routine and types of workouts - mentally and physically.
To see whatâs possible: Could I do it challenge? What could I learn from it?
Now, ask yourself: when was the last time you truly challenged yourself?
8km of Running - 8 Stations of Exercise
2ď¸âŁ Why Pushing Limits Builds Resilience
The thing about challenges that test us, is that they reveal your untapped potential.
Hereâs what I learned:
My body is more capable than my mind
Mental toughness is key - determination over motivation
Discomfort sparks growth, that takes you to the next level
I CAN DO THIS
Flip the lens: What discomfort are you avoiding? How could leaning into it make you stronger?
3ď¸âŁ Adapt to Grow: The Power of Change
Variety is essential: Repeating the same routines wonât push you to new heights.
Patience is part of progress: Adaptation doesnât happen overnight, but consistency drives results.
Resilience is built in the struggle: Each rep, each lap, each challenge adds to your strengthânot just physically but mentally too.
Now itâs your turn: How could you bring variety into your lifeâwhether in fitness, work, or mindsetâto spark growth?
CONCLUSION
Hyrox wasnât just about the competition; it was about the journey of challenging myself to grow stronger, more adaptable, and more resilient and shake things up for my body.
Itâs a reminder that stepping outside your comfort zone is where real transformation happens.
So, I leave you with this:
What are you doing to challenge your body, your mind, and your limits this week?
