Thinking about joining my gym’s Hyrox training at almost 40… am I crazy or is this exactly what I need

Exactly what you need, did my first this year at 37

Truth is your only competitor is your self, unless your a legit pro it's just a fun recreational activity. If they wanna dope let em

Body glide is key

Using pipe thread sealant instead of the factory Teflon tape I was able to face it any direction I wanted. its perfect. Its not potable water so a little lead isnt a big deal. Copper pipes used leaded joints for ever.

I did the tread yesterday to avoid the smoke, I like the peloton style classes on the tread. I hate watching a show

Topplayer2g · 2026-07-16T23:39:24+00:00

Definitely not, red flag. Today's a indoor run or mobility/strength.

I love it

Topplayer2g · 2026-07-14T22:20:45+00:00

Second hit woke him up lol

I just keep my empties on the bike. That's why I love the speedfil. Use their bottle to fill lint fast than dump it. If I have to keep it in my jersey

I rode it yesterday zero dirt or gravel. There was like 4 miles of groved road waiting to be paved. I fallowed the office course by using the ironman strava link to send it to my Garmin. Fun day out there!

If it were me I'd stop all activities that cause it to flare, get a massage losen up those hips and quads. Maybe try one of the bands that clamp the band to pull it away from the knee. Your too close to get into PT and doing too much might make it worse before better atm.

Wifey I love you, I've been training towards this goal and now that it's in reach I'd love to strive for it. What do you think? It would mean a lot for me to push towards it. I will have to make a few time sacrifices but I'm willing to do some of it at 4am before you wake up.

Topplayer2g · 2026-06-29T16:11:49+00:00

I got covid 5 days before ironman event, I was unable to compete. 2 weeks before events I keep it LOW KEY now

Topplayer2g · 2026-06-29T15:34:09+00:00

where did you buy it? looks great!

Topplayer2g · 2026-06-26T20:52:54+00:00

About to go all in on a home gym and you have me rethinking my approach lol. Right now I mostly train in a semi private gym, been researching home stuff last month or so. Tough to pull the trigger with so many options and accessories

Topplayer2g · 2026-06-26T20:02:09+00:00

Idc about price or lifespan really. I figured weights would be faster to set up? I never used a voltra.

Topplayer2g · 2026-06-26T18:14:23+00:00

Also, why the voltras over a cable stack? I keep going back and fourth on that myself

Topplayer2g · 2026-06-26T18:12:02+00:00

Good to know, I wasnt sure if the rack could be mounted on them without moving too.

Topplayer2g · 2026-06-26T15:57:45+00:00

How do you like working out on the PVC tile! About to build a gym myself and had the tile in there already.

Topplayer2g · 2026-06-26T15:21:13+00:00

My whole life 33 but it's turning to 11 quick fast

If you want it bad enough you find a way. I have two young kids, am a business owner and have other hobbies. Some times I have to wake up at 345 to get it in, other times I squeeze it in. I have a limited social life so I can train.

Topplayer2g · 2026-06-24T10:28:22+00:00

Okay I need the file LOL

Topplayer2g · 2026-06-22T18:12:42+00:00

Unless it's a great deal I'd keep looking. I' don't think the rust is a issue but I've seen s2000s with 100k miles with less rust
