About this plan

This hyrox training plan runs 12 weeks at 4 sessions a week, rising from 2.9 to 4.2 hours by week 10. Week 6 is 3.3 h for an intermediate Open athlete. Week 1 benchmarks all 8 stations; week 8 retests the four slowest.

8 compromised-running sessions pair 1 km at 8:07/mi with a station, with rounds growing across the 12 weeks. Sleds run from 335 lb race load up to 10% over it in 12 station sessions of 12 weeks at 4 days.

Simulations: half in week 6, full in week 10, 36 hours in all. Deloads: week 4 (2.2 h) and week 8 (2.7 h). The taper runs 4.2 h → 1.6 h. It is also what people mean by "hyrox training program", "hyrox workout plan", "hyrox training plan pdf" — one page, one plan.

Week 1, shown in full above, is 2.9 hours: Monday — run intervals 4 × 1 km, 35 min; Tuesday — benchmark: 1 km run + every station, 70 min; Thursday — stations: technique + capacity, 40 min, led by Sled push; Friday — zone 2 run, 30 min.

The phases run base weeks 1–3 (2.5–2.9 h), build weeks 5–7 (3.1–3.7 h), peak weeks 9–10 (3.8–4.2 h), taper week 11 (3.3 h) and race week 12 (1.6 h).
