This guy realized a while ago to get better at Hyrox he needs to get stronger and that is what he is doing. Our only focus in our PT sessions is strength so it can transfer over to his hyrox times!
Want to get stronger for hyrox? Then send me a DM to get booked in today!
Let’s PR those race times!

That wall ball station humbles everyone eventually. 😅
Back squats won’t make you a pro runner, but they’ll keep you moving when your legs are shot. Swipe through for the why!
Start light. Move well. Trust the process.
Tag a friend who blows up on wall balls. (You know who they are.)

Why lifting from blocks?
Over this 8-week cycle in Barbell Club, we’re using block training to:
- Build focused strength in specific lifts
- Improve the second pull
- Focus on reaching full leg extension
- Save the posterior chain
- No overloading the central nervous system
Snatching from blocks lets us dial in the second pull, reinforce positions, and build explosive power without the full pull. It’s perfect for refining weak points.
Come join a Barbell Club at @coastalfitnesshk to find out how to use blocks properly! 🏋🏼♂️
Barbell Club timings:
📅 Thursday – 12:30pm
📅 Saturday – 11:30am

Think running + sleds + burpees is enough? Think again.
Here’s why HYROX racers who skip strength training are leaving time on the course and risking injury:
1: Better running economy
Stronger glutes & calves = less energy wasted per stride. Faster runs without adding miles.
2: Faster wall balls & sleds
Leg strength = more power per rep. Less fatigue on stations = more fuel for the finish.
3: Injury proof your season
HYROX is repetitive. Strength training builds robust joints: knees, low back, and hips.

Comment “STRONG” if you will be adding in strength training this week!
🔁 Repost for a training partner who needs to hear this.
What a weekend, first time at the @hksevens and the south stand did not disappoint 🍻 Will definitely be back!
Also pretty sure not 1 game of rugby was watched, anyone else? 😅

Some of my top lifts this week 👌🏼
2 power snatch + 1 squat snatch from blocks: 100 & 105kg!
7 minutes to build: 1 Clean + 1 front squat + 1 jerk: 130kg & 140kg feeling solid and definitely more in the tank here!

Considering we had zero heavy barbells in the Open or Quarterfinals, I’m pretty stoked to walk away with my highest ever finish. I actually make Semifinals for the first time since starting CrossFit in 2013. 🔥
Also snagged my highest ever finish in a workout too with a cheeky top 200 on the row/clean and jerk/row/strict HSPU workout!
My 34-year-old self just reminded my younger self: we can always get better if we put in the work! Also not bad after braking my hand in December! 🏋🏼♂️
