Manchester Hyrox
In January we saw out amazing members take part in their first EVER Hyrox race!
What is Hyrox you say?
HYROX combines both running & functional workout stations, where participants run 1km, followed by 1 functional workout station, repeated eight times.
Each race is hosted indoors in expansive exhibition halls, creating an immersive and electrifying race, where your spectators can support you from the very beginning to the very end.
This race format remains consistent across the globe, enabling global leaderboards & a cumulative World Championships at the end of each race season.
Accommodating both professional athletes, and everyday fitness enthusiasts looking to take their training to the next level, HYROX is the sport for everybody.
“I was asked by a friend if I wanted to sign up to a Hyrox event and although I train most days, the thought of that much cardio filled me with dread! After attending the Hyrox classes at CrossFit Blackpool and really enjoying it I decided that it would be a great way to push myself and do something way out of my comfort zone! The Hyrox classes that were programmed at the box were ideal to improve my cardio fitness and I felt mentally and physically prepped going into the race. I was super nervous on race day but having my friend and training partner with me made it such a fun day, we had an absolute ball and even though it was tough as I thought it would be I really enjoyed it and I’ve signed to do another one this year!!!”
Our Hyrox classes are open to all members and non members, we even offer a Hyrox only membership which includes 6 Hyrox classes a week, access to Hyrox programming and use of Open Gym all led by our highly experienced coaches.
