A project in the making for two years! In this video I guide you through a HYROX specific test I built with the team of WODMotions. Instead of doing only running or rowing we mimic a traditional ramp test to exhaustion using functional movements, yes the ones that are used in hyrox fitness racing. Wall-balls, burpees and running.
I will show you the results of the test, the fully fledged report and what the data could mean for your training and coaching services. A lot of state of the art info is shared in this video. I hope you enjoy!
Ah if you'd like to have an insight into a full report as a free example... Click this link: https://pxllnk.co/Report_wodmotions_YT

Accurate scientific data is key to finding physiological weaknesses.
I had a lactate threshold and Vo2max test last week - I need to work on build an aerobic base even if I’m a good runner.
(All my training was Zone 3, 4 and 5 - I have no aerobic base)
I am very interested in a career in this type of testing and research for athletes and athletic development. Is there any specific path or college major you suggest in order to achieve that?? Thank you so much for these awesome videos!! So informative🙌
And even if the watt estimates are accurate, how transferable are watts between movements? Wouldn’t running, wall balls, burpees, pull-ups, etc. each have their own power-duration relationship and physiological cost at a given wattage?
If you had to design one workout, to perfectly test the complete “hybrid athlete” what would it be and why?
Less skill than crossfit, but more strength than hyrox, Using functional movements.
Thanks for all the great content 👊🏼
