Race day is close. You’ve built the base — now it’s time to sharpen.

The 6-Week Hyrox Performance Accelerator is designed to take you from “prepared” to “ready to perform.”

Across 6 structured weeks, you’ll run precise pacing intervals, condition with race-style station workouts, and strength train with contrast methods that translate directly into Hyrox performance.

Every session has a clear purpose: to help you move faster, last longer, and race stronger.

Designed For Hyrox
Most Hyrox training plans throw together random workouts. This isn’t one of them. The 6-Week Hyrox Performance Accelerator is built with purpose: every session has a clear link to the race. You won’t just “get fitter” — you’ll get better at Hyrox.

Why do this? * Bringing HR down gradually (parasympathetic activation). * Targeting tissues that were most stressed in that session. * Restoring mobility for race-specific movement efficiency. 90/90 Hip Lift with Breathing × 4–5 breaths Why: Restores pelvis/rib alignment, downregulates CNS, promotes efficient recovery breathing after high HR stress.

FAQs
Do I need access to a Hyrox gym?
You will need access to Hyrox equipment: Kettlebells, Wall Ball, and Sandbag alongside standard gym equipment. The sleds are optional, and the program was written with the option of a rower or SkiErg. Running can be done on a treadmill or outside.
What if I don’t have a sled?
No problem — sled work only appears in the optional “Coach’s Day.” If you don’t have one, simply skip that section without missing the benefits of the program.
How long are the workouts?
Sessions take 45–70 minutes, depending on the day. Long enough to build race readiness, short enough to fit into a busy week.
How many days per week is the program?
Five structured sessions, with an optional “Coach’s Day” for sleds and prehab. Rest and recovery are built in.
Do I keep the program after 6 weeks?
Yes! It’s a one-time purchase with lifetime access. You can repeat it or return to it before your next race.
How is the program delivered?
You’ll receive it through the TrainHeroic app, where you can log results, track progress, and access video demos for every exercise.
What support do I get?
You’ll join our private TrainHeroic group chat, where you’ll get weekly coaching tips, motivation, and answers to your questions.
What’s the difference between Solo and Doubles program?
The Solo version is built around individual pacing and full station reps. The Doubles version adapts the workouts for split station work, partner transitions, and active recovery — so you can train exactly how you’ll race.
Can I follow this program if I’ve never done Hyrox before?
This program is designed for intermediate to advanced athletes (the volume and intensity are higher than the 12-week plan). It’s suitable for first-time Hyrox competitors. If it’s your first race, you’ll get the exact structure and pacing strategies you need to feel confident on the course.
