Frequently asked questions about Hyrox coaching

What makes Hyrox coaching different from running or CrossFit coaching? +

Hyrox lives at the intersection of endurance and functional fitness. Coaches need to program 8km of running alongside 8 different strength/skill stations. It's not just running with some exercises — the pacing, periodization, and energy system demands are unique. Most running coaches underprogram strength, and most CrossFit coaches underprogram running.

How many hours per week should Hyrox athletes train? +

For Open division, 5-7 hours per week is typical: 3 running sessions and 2-3 functional sessions. Pro athletes usually need 8-12 hours, adding more running volume and station-specific work. The key is balancing both modalities without overtraining either.

Can I coach Hyrox athletes with Athlin? +

Yes. Athlin generates AI training plans that balance running and functional work based on your coaching style and athlete Garmin data. It understands the Hyrox race format and programs station-specific sessions alongside running periodization.

What's the best way to structure a Hyrox training week? +

Most coaches follow a 3+2 or 3+3 structure: 3 running sessions (tempo, intervals, long run) plus 2-3 functional sessions (station-specific work, full Hyrox simulation, and general strength). Recovery and mobility should be programmed on at least one day.

How long does it take to prepare for a first Hyrox race? +

For someone with a running or CrossFit base, 8-12 weeks is typically enough to prepare for Open division. Starting from scratch, allow 16-20 weeks. The biggest variable is running fitness — the 8km of running makes up 50-60% of most athletes' total time.
