#85 To Hyrox Or Not to Hyrox....

Hyrox is everywhere right now, and the question we keep getting is simple: “Should I do it?” Larry and Daniel take a proper look at what’s really pulling people towards Hyrox, from FOMO and fitness trends to the very real desire for community, belonging, and a shared goal you can train for with your mates. We’re clear on one thing from the start: getting more people exercising is a net positive, no matter the entry point.We also get honest about expectations. If your main goal is fat loss, building muscle, or getting stronger, Hyrox training may or may not be the best fit depending on where you’re starting from and what trade-offs you’re willing to accept. We talk about the “Hyrox athlete” illusion, why advanced physiques are usually built with years of structured strength training and smart programming, and how too much race-specific conditioning can chip away at strength and lean mass for some gym-goers.From there, we zoom out to the fitness industry itself: why every trend is also a business, how “recovery tools” and supplements get bundled into the hype, and why nutrition and energy balance still decide whether you actually get leaner. If you love Hyrox, brilliant, stick with it. If you hate burpees, be honest about what you’re signing up for. The goal is a training programme you enjoy, can sustain, and that matches what you want from your health and fitness.If this sparks a reaction, share it with a mate who’s thinking about signing up, subscribe for more straight-talking fitness chats, and leave a review so more people can find the podcast.Got questions? simply email or dm us with those questionsLarry IG https://www.instagram.com/larry_doyle_coachingDaniel IG https://www.instagram.com/danieldalycoachingWebsite https://www.larrydoylecoaching.ieCoaching with us https://www.larrydoylecoaching.ie/1-1-premium/Email : [email protected]
