Frequently asked questions about the Hyrox/Crossfit Performance (5x/week) routine

Can I stack this with running or cycling?

It’s possible, but you should monitor your fatigue closely. If you’re training for a race or doing long endurance sessions, you may want to scale down metcon intensity or skip a sprint session to stay fresh.

What equipment do I need for a CrossFit training?

You’ll need access to basic gym equipment: barbells, dumbbells, machines like the ski-erg, and space for sprints or dynamic movements. A CrossFit box or performance gym is ideal, but a well-equipped home gym also works.

Is five days a week really necessary?

Yes, the plan is optimized for five days to balance intensity and recovery. Each day plays a specific role—removing a session compromises the system. But if needed, you can drop the recovery or sprint day and still benefit.

Can I do this as a beginner?

This plan is better suited for intermediate to advanced athletes. Beginners may struggle with the volume and complexity of some movements. However, modifications are possible—just reduce intensity and choose simpler exercise alternatives.

What’s the difference between Hyrox and CrossFit?

Hyrox events focus on consistent, repeatable challenges like rowing, sled pushes, and wall balls—ideal for pacing and endurance. CrossFit often includes more variety and skill-based elements like Olympic lifts and gymnastics. This routine blends the best of both worlds.
