Before and Afters

In the month leading into Hyrox in Melbourne I reduced my resting heart rate from 67 bpm to 43 bpm.

Here’s what changed:

I introduced 3–4 zone 2 sessions per week.
Mostly stairmaster, running and airbike.

Zone 2 builds your aerobic base.
It improves stroke volume (how much blood your heart pumps per beat), which means your heart doesn’t need to beat as often at rest or during submaximal work.

I also included 1–2 race-specific zone 4/5 sessions per week.

These push your upper aerobic ceiling and improve how well you tolerate intensity, but they work best when supported by a strong base.

Strength training stayed in 1–2 times per week, full body.
This maintains muscle, improves efficiency, and helps you produce force without excessive energy cost.

For the first three weeks I ate in a small calorie deficit, then moved back to maintenance in the final week.
Dropping excess body weight reduces overall cardiac demand, but the aerobic work was the biggest driver here.

Why does a lower resting heart rate matter for hybrid events?

A stronger aerobic system means:
• Faster recovery between stations
• Lower heart rate at race pace
• More control under fatigue
• Better repeatability

In HYROX, DEKA, Spartan or any hybrid event, your engine determines how well you can express your strength.

My partner @being.faabulous asked me before my race “How can we help encourage you?” I chuckled and then looked at her and said “Make me laugh during the race. No matter how hard everything is feeling and how much I’m struggling to breathe, whenever someone makes me laugh it makes me feel 1000% better because it reminds me that I’m doing this because I enjoy it”.

I’m pretty sure she relayed that message to my friends because they cracked me up and made a solo race feel as if I was not once alone. @alejandro.hybrid you cracked me up brother😂

“Your future self isn’t coming to save you but is waiting for you to start becoming them” loved that quote so thought it would be a good one to share.

Always remember that the best time to start anything was yesterday and the next best time is now🔥❤️

Just finished a Norwegian 4x4 on the airbike.

4 rounds
4 minutes hard (around 90–95%)
3 minutes easy between

Simple structure. Very effective.

The goal isn’t to destroy yourself, it’s to spend quality time near your upper aerobic limit so your engine actually improves.

It’s uncomfortable, but controlled.

Done properly, sessions like this build serious conditioning without needing endless volume.

Save this if you want a simple way to improve your aerobic capacity.

There’s always another level🤦🏻‍♂️😂
#personaltrainer #fitness #running #fitmeme

You won’t always feel motivated.
That’s normal.

Discipline bridges the gap.

And over time, if you keep showing up,
discipline becomes habit.

That’s when training stops being something you force
and becomes something you just do.

What else would it be spent on?🤷🏻‍♂️
