Whether you're gearing up for your first HYROX race or chasing a new personal best, one thing’s for certain — HYROX is no ordinary fitness event. It demands a unique combination of endurance, strength, and high-volume functional movement.
At APEX Sports Clinic, Dr. Foo Gen Lin, Sports and Orthopaedic Surgeon and Dr. Wang Ming Chang, Sports and Exercise Medicine Physician, know this all too well — not just from treating hybrid athletes in their clinic, but also from their own personal experience competing in HYROX. They've seen both the triumphs and the toll this sport can take, and understand how smart training is essential to performance and longevity.
In this article, Dr Foo and Dr Wang share their strategies to help you train smarter, build resilience, and avoid the overuse injuries that could derail your season.
