​

​

Whether you're preparing for your first HYROX, competing in Doubles or Relay, or simply want a challenging full-body workout, our HYROX training is designed for multiple fitness levels.

​

What Is HYROX?

HYROX is a fitness race that combines running with functional workout stations. The standard HYROX race consists of eight 1-kilometer runs, with one functional workout station completed after each run. Athletes complete a total of 8 kilometers of running and eight workout stations. The standardized format makes HYROX unique because athletes can train specifically for the movements, distances, transitions, pacing, and physical demands they will encounter on race day.

​

The 8 HYROX Workout Stations

A HYROX race includes:

1. SkiErg – 1,000 meters

2. Sled Push – 50 meters

3. Sled Pull – 50 meters

4. Burpee Broad Jumps – 80 meters

5. Row – 1,000 meters

6. Farmers Carry – 200 meters

7. Sandbag Lunges – 100 meters

8. Wall Balls – 100 repetitions

Weights and certain requirements vary based on competition division.

HYROX Training at Modern Fitness OC

One of the biggest advantages of training at Modern Fitness OC is the ability to practice the actual demands of a HYROX race. Instead of simply performing random HIIT workouts, our HYROX training incorporates structured running distances, functional stations, strength training, conditioning, transitions, pacing, and race strategy. Our facility allows athletes to train with race-style equipment and designated distances, giving you the opportunity to understand what a HYROX race actually feels like before you step onto the competition floor.​

​​​

Our 60-minute Sunday HYROX & Conditioning class combines running and HYROX-style functional stations. Classes are designed for both HYROX competitors and people who simply want an effective strength and conditioning workout.

​

You do not have to be registered for a HYROX race to participate.

​

Training for HYROX: Anaheim 2026

HYROX returns to Anaheim in December 2026, making Modern Fitness OC a convenient Orange County training option for local athletes preparing for the event. Our goal is to help athletes arrive on race day already familiar with running under fatigue, station technique, transitions, pacing, and the overall demands of HYROX. Instead of experiencing these challenges for the first time during the race, you can practice them during your training.

​

Singles, Doubles or Relay?​

HYROX Singles

In Singles, one athlete completes all eight 1-kilometer runs and all eight functional workout stations. Singles is a great option for athletes who want the full HYROX experience and are prepared for the running and conditioning demands of the entire race.

​

HYROX Doubles

HYROX Doubles consists of two athletes. Both athletes complete the running portions together while sharing the workload at the functional stations. Doubles can be a great progression for athletes who want the complete HYROX running experience while splitting the station workload with a partner.

​

HYROX Relay

HYROX Relay consists of four athletes dividing the race. Relay is an excellent introduction to HYROX for first-time competitors, groups of friends, training partners, and athletes who aren't ready to complete the entire race individually.

Frequently Asked Questions:​

Do I Need to Be a Runner to Train for HYROX?

No. You don't have to consider yourself a runner or competitive athlete to begin HYROX training.

Running ability can be developed just like strength and conditioning. Our training can help you gradually improve cardiovascular endurance while developing the strength and movement efficiency needed for the functional stations.

​

Can Beginners Take a HYROX Class?

Yes. You do not have to compete in HYROX to benefit from this style of training. HYROX-style workouts combine cardiovascular conditioning, strength, muscular endurance, and functional movement, making them an effective option for anyone looking for a challenging and structured workout. Exercises, weights, intensity, and running volume can be adjusted based on ability.
