  • Fasted Or Fuelled and What is "Strong Enough"?
    Jan 12 2026

    We weigh fasted training against performance fueling and show how to match carbs to intensity and duration. Then we tackle Hyrox strength, define strength endurance, and map the fastest path to “strong enough” without wasting sessions or breaking down.

    • download milestone, YouTube plans, guests and seminar series
    • fasted training preferences, low vs high intensity fuel needs
    • fat oxidation myths, energy balance clarity
    • psychology of sugar, mouth-rinse effect, hydration timing
    • race prep consistency, practising fueling in sims
    • strong enough standard for Hyrox, when strength matters
    • prioritising running and station economy once strength is adequate
    • defining strength endurance, systemic fatigue over junk reps
    • interval weight training for durable performance
    • programming variety year-round, specificity near race

  • Building Your Base: Why Training Age Matters
    Dec 23 2025

    We explore why training age and a broad fitness base decide how far you can go in hybrid sport. We compare sport backgrounds, break down base building, and show how recovery, psychology and smart progression beat ego-driven volume.

    • training age as the hidden advantage
    • base building through zone 2 and steady volume
    • transfer from football, cycling, CrossFit to HYROX
    • strength, muscle mass and efficiency trade-offs
    • high vs low responders to training adaptation
    • intensity traps, overreaching and under-recovery
    • real recovery vs fake easy sessions
    • linear progression: add time, watts or cut rest
    • life stress and CNS load using the health bar analogy
    • race psychology and the skill of pacing and restraint

  • How Threshold Training Actually Works And Why It Matters For HYROX
    Dec 17 2025

    We break threshold training down to plain language and practical sets that build speed without constant redlining. Along the way we show why bikes boost running, how cadence drives transfer, and what strong calves do for durability and race pace.

    • what lactate threshold really is and why hydrogen causes the burn
    • how to structure threshold sets to brush the line and recover
    • double threshold day pitfalls and recovery costs
    • using bike and row work to build the engine with less impact
    • matching bike cadence to run stride for better transfer
    • treadmill versus road and when to switch for specificity
    • calf and Achilles strength for efficiency and injury resistance
    • Zone 2 on the bike: damper, RPM and duration fixes
