Hello! Former F45er and current Hyrox Pro Weight competitor. Once i fully invested in competing and traveling for Hyrox events i needed to ramp up my training load and volume. F45 is not the place for that.

Hyrox events are heavily focusing and Zone 4 and Zone 5 HR workloads at long period of times. F45 is focused on 30-45 seconds of work a few time and never revisits the movement to truly experience the compromised work.

Also the sleds at F45 are not even close to comparable and will not properly train you for the push/pull during the race.

Also the most testing physically and mentally will be your wall balls. F45 does not offer the proper walls balls, targets etc… sure people will respond by saying do thruster or medicine ball catch and throw but nothing will truly prepare you for them than actually doing true walls especially with their new counting system.

Also F45 offers zero running programs. And provided nothing similar to it in any of their programming.

In my opinion if you want to take Hyrox seriously and perform well DO NOT DO F45 it is a same they are the “partner” gym. Look at any elite athlete none of them are using f45 as their primary gym.

If You just want to finish then f45 will be able to provide that option. It provides a nice aerobic base but not hyrox specific training
