💪 HYROX Sled Push Top Tips

As the second station in HYROX, the Sled Push is often where the race really begins!

✅ Stay low with a strong forward body angle
✅ Drive through your legs with short, powerful steps
✅ Keep your core braced throughout
✅ Maintain a steady pace rather than sprinting and stopping
✅ Use the turns to reset, breathe, and prepare for the next push

The Sled Push rewards good technique and patience. Stay controlled, keep moving, and save some energy for the stations ahead. 🔥

💪 HYROX SkiErg Top Tips

The SkiErg is the first station in HYROX, so pacing and efficiency are key!

✅ Drive with your hips and core, not just your arms
✅ Focus on long, powerful strokes
✅ Settle into a steady rhythm and avoid going out too hard
✅ Control your breathing and heart rate
✅ Stay relaxed and save energy for the sleds ahead

Remember: you can't win the race on the SkiErg, but you can make the rest of the race much harder if you overdo it. Train smart and stay efficient! 🔥
