THE 12 WEEK PLAN TO RACE SUCCESS

When I signed up for my first HYROX, I quickly realised I had no idea how to train for it! In my search for help, I discovered the Rox Lyfe training plan and I’m delighted with the results. The sessions are challenging, but enjoyable and have different options for your current fitness level. The plan builds nicely over the 12 weeks and each week you dedicate a day to a HYROX style workout which is a huge confidence builder. You also get several top tips for race day which I really appreciated as a first timer! I’ll definitely be using it again for my next event!

I just wanted to let you know the training programme was awesome! My run times definitely improved. I’m not sure how accurate the Garmin watches are with VO2max but from April to Aug it went from 48 to 54 (which I was happy with given my age). I raced my first HYROX in Brisbane last weekend.  I felt amazing, had a great race and recovered quickly and a bonus I got 3rd in my age group. I could easily shave another 2mins off in the roxzone because I was so thirsty I stopped to drink all the time so might consider a hydration pack next time.  The plan helped so much – thank you! 

After competing at a couple of HYROX events I felt like I needed more guidance and more structure to become a better athlete. The Rox Lyfe 12-week program delivered just that!
I finished my first 12-week cycle just before Rotterdam and during this period I could really feel I was getting stronger, faster and fitter. Every training session is exciting and challenging and the Rox Lyfe guys are always there to answer questions and to motivate you. This program will definitely get you ready for your next HYROX event! So if you want to step up your HYROX game, the Rox Lyfe is the way to go!

I used the Rox Lyfe 12 week training plan and managed to get 15 minutes faster than my previous London time which I was so happy about.

Major credit for you guys putting this plan together, very easy to follow and challenging in the right way. I felt energised this time round in my training, the last plan I had kind of ran me into the ground so I was almost burnt out come race day.

The plan really helped me gain an understanding of how to train for HYROX, which is such a broad event.

The plan covers all the important elements, strength, running progression, HYROX specifics and compromised workouts, so nothing came as a shock or was untrained on the day.

It also helped me discover what my weaknesses were, so I could then adapt to train more on those, and less on the areas I was strong.

I now have a great training platform to build and adapt for future events! Thanks Greg and team.

I can’t say enough about the 12 week race prep program! This was my first HYROX race and I went into race day feeling very prepared! I am particular about my programming (I am a personal trainer and CFL2 coach) and I completely fell in love with the training Rox Lyfe provided. I finished 13th in my age group and feel I have so much more in the tank that I’ll be moving on to pro’s for my next race! I can’t wait!!

The plan was great and definitely helped me get HYROX ready. There were levels included which I was able to move between to ensure I was always progressing, even if I was short on time or wasn’t feeling up to the most difficult workout. Really enjoyed the style of workouts and think my leg endurance has came on in leaps and bounds.

With a race so grueling, I knew that proper training would be vital to success in the sport. And as a newcomer, other than making myself do burpee broad jumps until I passed out, I didn’t really know where to start.  Thanks to the killer Rox Lyfe training programs, I shocked myself by winning my age group in my first ever HYROX race and qualifying for the World Championships!

I competed in Dallas last weekend and your training program was a HUGE help. I placed 5th in my age group and I know I wouldn’t have done nearly as well without it. The workouts were challenging, fun, and thoughtfully systematic. I will definitely continue to use the program to improve my time for the next race.

When training for my first HYROX, I found it difficult to fit in the right amounts of each of the different fitness elements needed, so found myself trying to do too much and ending up tired all the time. For my next one, I wanted to follow a more detailed, HYROX specific plan but wasn’t ready to commit to a more expensive, bespoke programme. I found this plan and it delivered exactly what I needed for a very reasonable price. Everything is covered; runs of differing speeds/lengths, interval training (probably the element that improved my performance the most), strength and HYROX specific simulations. It provides different levels depending on your fitness and was very easy to follow. I would highly recommend it especially as it got me through my first solo HYROX!

“A big thanks to Rox Lyfe for the 12-week training plan. It made such a difference having a structure to my training and I really enjoyed the variety of sessions. I did my 2nd and 3rd HYROX at the weekend. I was 3m 33s quicker than the Excel last year and still had plenty of energy left for the doubles on Sunday.”

I ended up beating my goal time of 90 minutes by nearly 5 minutes as a result of the training program. Training and fitness aside, I found that the peaking phase of the program really helped with the race day uncertainty (especially as a first timer). The event itself felt more like another workout rather than a competition or anything to that effect.

The Rox Lyfe program was everything I was looking for in a hybrid training program — thoughtful, comprehensive, challenging, and accessible to non-professional athletes. After using the program to train for my fifth individual Hyrox race, the program’s impact was clear: I finished more than 5:30 faster than my previous best time, and achieved personal bests for my total run time and five of the eight workout stations. What’s more, the program’s inherently scalable format will allow me to revisit it in future training as I continue to progress in the sport.

Having come to fitness competitions quite late in life I ‘got by’ for my first couple of Hyrox comps with my routine gym visits. When I signed up for Hyrox Dublin I was introduced to Rox Lyfe and it completely changed my training. I loved the workout formats, the variation and honestly arrived in Dublin feeling so much more prepared.

Thanks to the Rox Lyfe plan I also won my category and am off to the Worlds – definitely using Rox Lyfe plan again. Can’t recommend enough. 

I can’t recommend the 12-week Rox Lyfe training plan enough. In training for my first HYROX, I purchased Rox Lyfe’s 12-week training plan 3 months before my race. 

The varied workouts, which evolved week after week, not only kept training interesting but also drove me forward in my progression. Each workout provides the option of different intensity levels, which allowed me to tailor workouts to my current state – I felt like I advanced steadily without the risk of overtraining. 

The Rox Lyfe coaching team’s expertise was evident in every aspect of the plan, from the pre-race tips to the detailed plan which is designed to evolve over the course of the 12 weeks. Ahead of my race Greg personally reached out to see how I was getting on with the plan which was a nice touch. After following the training programme, I went into the race confident with my fitness, and was delighted with my result. For anyone looking to eliminate guesswork from their HYROX preparation and put their trust in a programme that’s easy to follow and yields results, I’d highly recommend it!
