I don’t have a sled at my gym, can you recommend any alternative exercises please? Cheers

[@roxlyfe]

Hey - sure - have a read of this article - I go over a few options in that roxlyfe.com/how-to-crush-the-sled-push-at-hyrox/

[@brettbrunsell5769]

What is the total weight for the sled push and pull?

[@peterba854]

Also no ski erg or rower. I no how to ise them, but aby training alternatives suggestion

[@kylecooper7888]

Is there a place to store personal items and wash after the race?

[@roxlyfe]

There is a place to check in your bag / personal items at the race. In terms of washing after the race, it will differ depending on venue, but in my experience (in the UK), then no, there isnt anywhere for a shower.

[@kylecooper7888]

@@roxlyfe thanks for the reply. I'm registered for my first Hyrox in Chicago this year. Appreciate the tips.

[@roxlyfe]

@@kylecooper7888 No problem, good luck with it!

[@ciaranmac8689]

Did a full one in the gym 1hr 26mins 10s im 47

[@roxlyfe]

Great stuff, well done!

[@peterba854]

Sled pull / push Is grass easier or harder than what they use in a comp? Got first one in january. Managed 70kg on grass. Need plenty of work

[@roxlyfe]

Hey. Its hard to say to be honest - depends on how soft the grass is etc. As well as the sled youre using, underside of it. Best thing you can do is load it up so it really hard but just about moveable and do that in your training!

[@nicklaskowalski]

Oh shit I thought for a minute that Zuckerberg was highjacking my KZbin feed😝

[@roxlyfe]

haaa! Not the first time Ive had that!...along with Frank Ribery, Gareth Southgate, Matt Hancock, Robbie Fowler. The list is endless (and never that complimentary haaa!)

[@nicklaskowalski]

@@roxlyfe funny, in any case you made me discover HYROX. I will look into it in Bordeaux, France

No carbon plates for your shoes, the plate won't flex and pulls your heel out of your shoe.

[@roxlyfe]

Ah yes, interesting point, thank you!
