Building an Iron Physique: Coach Steve's HYROX Simulation Training Menu Revealed! If you've been following global fitness events in recent years, you've definitely heard of HYROX. It's the ultimate challenge combining long-distance running with functional fitness. Whether you're preparing for your next race or simply want to push your cardio and muscular endurance to new limits, this "HYROX Simulation Menu" will leave you questioning your life choices—yet totally exhilarated! <iframe class="ql-video" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/VJaY0MuOGwo"></iframe> Today, we're focusing on some of HYROX's most classic (and grueling) movements.Training Menu Breakdown ▌1. SkiErgMany people think the SkiErg trains the arms, but it actually tests the coordination between your lats and core. In HYROX, the SkiErg usually appears early in the race, with an emphasis on "pace control." Don't go all out at the start—find a smooth breathing and power rhythm to save energy for the battles ahead. ▌2. Burpee Box JumpAlthough official HYROX events use Burpee Broad Jumps, I love substituting with Burpee Box Jumps in training. It spikes your heart rate just as effectively while demanding high explosive power from fatigued legs. ▌3. Sled Push and PullThis is definitely the "final boss" of the entire session!Sled Push: Stay low, brace your core, and drive forward like a bulldozer using your glutes and legs.Sled Pull: It demands serious back strength, biceps, and grip. Use your body weight by leaning back to pull the rope—far more efficient than relying solely on arm strength. ▌4. Medicine Ball Squat and Push / Wall BallsAs the final station in HYROX (usually 100 reps), your legs and shoulders will already be on fire. Maintain squat depth and use hip drive as you stand to launch the ball to the target. This is not just strength training—it's a test of willpower.Advice for Beginners:Don't obsess over the weight—first master the mobility and movement mechanics for each exercise. HYROX is a marathon, not a sprint. Ready to test your limits?

Dispelling the Single Muscle Group Myth: 4 "Yun Ke Zhu" Full-Body Functional Training Moves You Need to Add to Your Menu

If you have successfully endured the first seven weeks of the Hatch Squat Training Program (Hatch Squat Program), your legs have already endured relentless high-volume, high-intensity Back Squats and Front Squats. Week 8 marks the most anticipated and critical phase for all advanced trainees: the Deload Week. <iframe class="ql-video" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/b4wrvQGDiXg"></iframe> Why Week 8 is so important: The science behind the deload phaseWhen you enter Week 8, accumulated fatigue masks your true strength gains—this is known in exercise science as the Fitness-Fatigue Model. W8D2 deliberately reduces training intensity and load, giving your joints, connective tissues, and central nervous system (CNS) ample recovery time while maintaining neural familiarity with movement patterns.This planned reduction in load is by no means a step backward; it effectively eliminates fatigue, awakens your true strength, and perfectly prepares you for the upcoming Peaking phase to break personal records (PR).W8D2 Training Session BreakdownBack Squats: 105 kg — 3 sets of 5 repsFront Squats: 65 kg — 4 sets of 5 repsHow to Execute This Session Perfectly for Maximum BenefitSpeed and power come first: Do not let the lighter weight make your form sloppy. Maintain high tension when unracking, fully brace your core, and explode upward as fast as possible from the bottom to train your rate of force development (RFD). Treat 105 kg as if it were your 1RM.Optimize Front Rack position: During the 65 kg Front Squats, use the lighter load to focus on improving front rack mobility. Keep elbows high, chest up, and ensure the upper back stays tight and upright throughout the entire range of motion.Focus on accelerating recovery: After completing today’s session, you should feel like you “still have energy left”—that is exactly the intended effect. Maintain this margin and invest the extra energy into mobility work, hip flexor stretching, and adequate hydration and nutrition.The true magic of the Hatch Squat cycle is not limited to those heavy, painful sets to failure; it also occurs when you allow your body to fully recover and achieve supercompensation. Respect the deload phase, refine your movement mechanics, and get ready to chase new squat records next week! =============Steve Ying-Chu Chen, Ph.D. candidate, M.S., M.A., CSCS*D, ACSM-CEP============= Steve Ying-Chu Chen holds a Master of Arts from the International Sinology Research Institute at National Taiwan Normal University and a Master of Science from the Department of Sports and Health Sciences at University of Taipei.
