Hi, in your opinion what type of surface (synthetic grass, non-slip carpet, etc.) is most similar to the surface found in competition. I'm not sure what surface to choose for my sled training. Thanks, bye

I've got my first Hyrox coming up in March, and I've been doing sled pulls mainly with arms and hips, feeding the rope between my legs. Curious to see what difference this makes, because i honestly had considered this to be one of the stations i felt most comfortable with already. I'm not an athlete by any means - I think having extra bodyweight may make it easier to pull the way i do!

I’d recommend loading it up heavier than race weight if you’re moving it well with your arms. The training in the gym doesn’t always translate and this can sneak up on people! Smash that race in March!

Great video as always. I’ve been doing heavy band pulls that are attached to a pole in my garage. Sometimes I’ll attach a shorter rope to get the feel. Only caution is when you walk back with a heavy band, make sure you brace yourself walking it back in! lol Good eccentric work though.

Thanks. Did my 1st HYROX in December and sled pull was sloooowww! I was confused about where the rope should go ...so thanks for sorting that one out. 👍 Not sure about gloves🤔. I didn't use them and wasn't aware of any hand slippage.
@RichRyan
@RichRyan Күн бұрын
Glad it helped! Practice the rope management and hit it hard in training. You would definitely notice hand slippage so you should be good without gloves!

Great run through 👌🏻 one thing I was wondering was regarding stepping on the line of your box. Are you penalised if your foot touches the white line or would you need to step over the line for it to be a fault? Just signed up for my first Hyrox so trying to pick up on some of the finer details of the rules. Thanks in advance.
@RichRyan
@RichRyan Күн бұрын
Great question. You are allowed to stop on, but not over the line in front of you but you can not touch the line behind you. You will be penalized on the second offense.

How do you track effort/pace when using an air runner for workouts?
@RichRyan
@RichRyan 2 күн бұрын
I use heart rate for my effort because you can't always count on the metrics. If I am familiar with the specific treadmill then I will go on distance and just take it with a grain of salt. The watts is really the most accurate way to measure your effort from machine to machine but it's hard to really know what that means.

I wouldn't say I purposefully do nothing at all. I will go for walks, but more out of utility-to exercise the dog or to get outside. But, I typically won't do anything that would require me to change into our out-of-workout clothes.

So, just cut it up into ez running and low effort stations and got the overall LR volume in feeling great about it.

Why this vs hands by the shoulders (traditional?) Style
@RichRyan
@RichRyan 4 күн бұрын
Good question! The tradtional way is probably the best way to move the sled the fastest but it is also a bit more costly. The position and upper body bracing restricts blood flow. Plus it pushes your hips and feet a bit further back from the sled so it makes it a bit tougher for your shoes to grip the carpet.

Hey Rich, great video. I am doing my first HYROX Auckland Feb 1 and have been training well but live in a small town and have no access to a sled. I don't have many options but to address a sled for the first time on race day. I am dreading it a little as I am 150lb and 62 :)... I'm sure it will move but I am having to sim using Deadlifts and a self-propelled treadmill for the push and Hack Squats/Cable Pull plus the treadmill for the Pull. Appreciate any tips. Cheers :)
