Hyrox Hybrid Training

🔥 POWER ENGINE – PARTNER SMASH

Ran this yesterday.

90 second hard efforts.
3 rounds per block.
Split the work however you like.
No hiding.

This is the type of session that builds real hybrid capacity:

• High output under fatigue
• Fast transitions
• Shared suffering
• Threshold tolerance

The goal wasn’t survival.
The goal was sustained power.

If you’re training for HYROX, DEKA, or just want a bigger engine — sessions like this are money.

Save it.
Tag your training partner.
Try not to sandbag the ski.

Definitely impossible to squeeze into 20 pictures! Equally as challenging to sum up into a caption too.

A year filled with so many amazing experiences and some challenges along the way too. Wouldn’t change it for anything.

On we roll to 2026!

PS… Every year I write down my goals. Some of which I hit and some I don’t. If you’re one of those people who passes off goal setting as a fad. Do it this year, and you’ll be surprised with what you achieve!

Where do I begin with …

Here are the facts:

✅ 12 months
✅ 252 PT sessions
✅ 20kg of weight lost

But the most important stat of all?

This company director and dad of two makes it to the gym for every single session we book.

That’s the real key to success: relentless consistency.

Dave deliberately puts his health and training at the top of his priority list. It’s not always easy — with constant travel, red-eye flights, jet lag, and long days — but he still shows up. Every time.

He does the hard part. The rest is down to me.

We all have reasons not to train. Dave proves that if it matters enough, you’ll find a way.

Failure Isn’t The Opposite Of Success, It’s The Shortcut.

London didn’t go how I wanted.
I turned up in 1:03–1:05 shape and walked away disappointed.

But here’s the truth.

That race gave me the exact roadmap to what needs to improve.

No guessing.
No ego.
Just real feedback.

My limiters were clear.

Lunges drained me more than expected.
Wall balls exposed my capacity under fatigue.

That isn’t failure, that’s data.

So what changes now?

The next training block is built to bring both stations into the top percentile.

✅ Lunge strength and fatigue resilience

Walking lunges after compromised runs.
Heavy sled pushes straight into lunges.
Weekly density work, 100 to 150 total reps under fatigue.

✅ Wall ball engine rebuild

EMOM wall ball sessions.
Race pace broken sets focusing on smooth cycling.
Breathing control and threshold conditioning to keep the heart rate stable.

✅ Transitions

Sled to lunge to wall ball practice so there’s no mental or physical drop off.

✅ Run under fatigue

More compromised running off stations, training to run fast when the legs don’t want to.

Every race shows you exactly what needs work.

Those weak spots aren’t problems, they’re targets.

Avoid them or build them until they become strengths.

Manchester is coming.

We don’t run from feedback, we move straight towards it.
