10 weeks to the start line
From November 11–15, 2026, HYROX comes to Düsseldorf for the first time. The Race Ready Camp prepares you for your start with a clear structure — whether you race Singles or Doubles.
Two sessions per week are coached at our box, two more you complete flexibly following a plan. Plus: weekly check-ins, a mock race as your dress rehearsal and a race week tailored to your race day.
You need no HYROX experience. Just a plan and a team.
A HYROX combines eight runs with eight functional stations. So what matters is not just how fast you run or how much weight you move — you have to manage your effort across the entire race. That is exactly what we train.
Our camp combines coached station training, strength, running and race practice in a clear weekly rhythm. Beginners and more experienced athletes train in the same program — loads, distances, volume and pace are adapted to your current level.
All you need is room for four sessions per week across ten weeks. Two of them are fixed — the rest fits flexibly into your schedule.
Four sessions. Only two fixed dates.
Two sessions are coached at our box. The other two you complete flexibly — at your gym or outside, whenever it fits your week. On top there is an optional fifth session for anyone with a solid running base.
Full Body Strength
60 minutes of full-body strength: two alternating plans with clear week-to-week progression.
Self-guided · by planHYROX Foundation
Focus on the 8 stations: technique, strength endurance, sleds, carries, wall balls, lunges.
Coached · at the boxInterval run
For anyone with a good running base chasing a target time. Not a must.
Optional · session 5Zone 2 run
Easy run at a pace where you can still hold a conversation. Builds your engine.
Self-guided · progressionHYROX Race Prep
Race simulation in blocks: alternating runs and stations, pacing, transitions, Roxzone.
Coached · at the boxBuilt like a real race program
No random collection of workouts, but deliberate periodization: technique first, then volume, then race pace — 10 training weeks followed by race week, with support all the way to the course.
Technique & base
Learn all 8 stations properly, build your aerobic base, solidify strength technique. Speed does not matter yet — clean movement does.
Weeks 1–3 · Aug 31–Sep 20Volume & compromised running
Running on tired legs becomes the core theme. Volume increases and stations get combined.
Weeks 4–6 · Sep 21–Oct 11Pacing & Simulation
Find and hold your race pace. Long blocks, transitions, strategy for Singles & Doubles — culminating in the Mock Race on Nov 1.
Weeks 7–9 · Oct 12–Nov 1Taper & race week
After the mock race we reduce volume and intensity: week 10 focuses on technique, pacing and recovery. During race week, your taper is built around your race day.
Training week 10 + race week · Nov 2–15All dates at a glance
Green = coached sessions at the box (Wed 7:20 pm & Sun 10 am). Gold = the window for your flexible sessions: one strength session Mon or Tue, one zone 2 run Fri or Sat. You will get each week’s detailed programming in the camp.

Strength & running — by plan, on your schedule
For both sessions you get clear weekly plans from us: what, how long, how heavy. Here is the overview — the complete plans including progression come at camp start.
Full Body Strength · 2 alternating plans
60 minutes of full-body strength training with clear progression — exactly the strength you need for sleds, carries and lunges. The plans work with standard gym equipment; where a machine is not available, you get a suitable alternative.
1×/week · Mon or Tue · self-guidedZone 2 run + interval option
More than half of a HYROX is running. Your zone 2 run gradually grows from 35 to up to 70 minutes. If you already have a good running base and are chasing a target time, add the optional interval session.
1×/week · Fri or Sat · self-guidedWeekly check-in
Every Sunday after the session — or via WhatsApp if you are not around. A plan only works if it matches your actual training week: the check-in helps us spot early when volume, pace or a station needs adjusting.
What we ask
Which of the four sessions you completed, how running and strength felt, how sleep and recovery have been — and which station challenged you most this week.
What you get back
Short coach feedback, recommendations for the following week and, if needed, adjustments to volume, pace or scaling — from week 7 we work specifically on your weak spot.
Why weekly
Ten weeks is a long time. The fixed rhythm helps you stay on track — and helps us solve small problems before they grow.
Mock Race · Sun, Nov 1, 2026
Half the volume. The full race flow.
Two weeks before the real race we simulate HYROX at our box: half the running and station volume, but the complete race flow with all transitions — with timing, station judges and start waves just like the real event. Your splits form the basis for your pacing recommendation and the design of your final training week.
The 10–14 day gap to your race day is deliberate: close enough for real race experience, far enough that you stand at the start line fully recovered — whether you race on Nov 11 or 15.
You won’t stand alone on race day
Most training plans end with the last workout. Ours does not. During your race week we are with you all the way to the course — that is the difference between a PDF and a team.
From your mock race splits and training data we derive a realistic pacing recommendation for your race — station by station, run by run.
Matched to your race day, we reduce your training load so you go into the race recovered and well prepared.
For last questions about logistics, warm-up, equipment and race strategy you can reach us quickly via WhatsApp during race week.
We coordinate our race days as a team and plan shared meeting points at the course — so you are not on your own on race day.
What is inside your camp
