How to structure HYROX TRAINING for beginners! The complete guide!

Taper week is one of the most critical yet emotionally challenging phases of preparing for a HYROX event. In this episode, we dive deep into the common feelings of restlessness, sadness, and anxiety many athletes experience as they reduce training volume and prepare for race day. We explore the science behind these emotions, including how tapering affects neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, and why this period can feel like such a rollercoaster. We also provide practical strategies to help you navigate taper week effectively, from maintaining a modified routine to practicing mindfulness and visualization techniques. This episode includes insights from key research: Dr. Daniela J. Alghamdi et al., The Psychology of Athletic Tapering (Sports Medicine, 2022) University of South Wales, How Regular Physical Activity Enhances Brain Function and Mood (Neuroscience News, 2023) Dr. Attila Szabo, Exercise Addiction and Mood Dysregulation (Journal of Behavioral Addictions, 2021) Dr. Karen Howells, Psychological Preparation for Tapering and Competition (Psychology of Sport and Exercise, 2020) Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned HYROX competitor, this episode is packed with actionable tips to help you thrive during taper week and arrive on race day feeling confident and prepared.

In this episode, we’re diving deep into the “reward the pacer” mentality, a game-changing approach championed by James Fitzgerald at OPEX Fitness. Discover how prioritizing consistent, sustainable effort over all-out intensity can lead to long-term success in your fitness journey. We’ll cover the key principles, like setting maintainable pace goals, focusing on quality over quantity, and using RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) to stay within a repeatable threshold. This approach not only builds endurance and strength but also protects against injury and burnout, especially crucial for events like HYROX, where a steady pace can make all the difference. Listen in to learn how to implement pacing across all your workouts and why monitoring your energy and recovery is essential to finishing strong.
