HYROX is an indoor fitness race that pairs running with functional strength. You run 1 kilometer, complete one workout station, and repeat for eight rounds: SkiErg, sled push, sled pull, burpee broad jumps, rowing, farmers carry, sandbag lunges, and wall balls, always in that fixed order worldwide. Most finishers take roughly 60 to 90 minutes, which is exactly why it rewards structured training.

In order, the eight HYROX stations are: SkiErg (1,000 m), sled push (50 m), sled pull (50 m), burpee broad jumps (80 m), row (1,000 m), farmers carry (200 m), sandbag lunges (100 m), and wall balls (100 reps). Each station follows a 1 km run, and the order never changes from race to race. APX Velocity trains all eight on the real equipment.

No. There are no qualifying times for HYROX or for training at APX Velocity. If you can run a comfortable 5km, our coaches will get you to the start line, scaling every station to your current fitness. We train complete beginners and returning racers in the same supportive room.

Most athletes who train two to three times per week are race-ready in about 8 to 12 weeks, depending on starting fitness and goal time. APX Velocity coaches build your running engine and station strength together and tell you honestly when you are ready to sign up for a race.

HYROX training at APX Velocity is included in every membership: $96/month for one class per week, $178/month for two, and $225/month for unlimited (each on a six-month commitment). Every plan also includes hybrid fitness, obstacle course training, and the Sunday run club. Your first class is free.

Yes. APX Velocity is one of the few mid-Peninsula gyms built specifically around HYROX and hybrid racing, drawing athletes from Palo Alto, Redwood City, Atherton, East Palo Alto, Mountain View, and across the Bay Area. It is a DEKA-affiliate facility with a 5.0-star rating from local athletes.

APX Velocity trains on the actual race equipment: Concept2 SkiErgs and rowers, weighted sleds for pushes and pulls, sandbags for lunges, farmers-carry handles, and wall-ball targets. Training on the real gear means race day feels familiar instead of foreign.

Coach-led classes run Monday through Thursday in the evenings, with early sessions on Tuesday, Saturday mornings at 7:30 AM, and the Sunday run club at 7:00 AM. The full weekly schedule is on the APX Velocity website, and your first class is free to try.
