You'll never guess how FIT, fit enough | HYROX vs CrossFit vs Pilates vs Muay Thai — Ranked (1–5)
from Coach Johann Bullies Bad Ideas · host johann francis
How fit do you need to be? That simple question basically chooses your workout today.Pilates if you want length and control. Muay Thai if you want discipline and chaos. Lifting if you want pure strength. HIIT if you want the burn. And if you want competition mixed with camaraderie? HYROX, DEKA, or CrossFit—fitness that’s basically a sport.In this episode, I rank 9 training modalities from 1–5 using five real criteria: Engine, Force, Power, Movement Quality, and Durability (can you do it for years without breaking). No doctor voice.
