Favorite thing about Hyrox:
The race provides you a consistent measure of your fitness and requires training a wide variety of easily accessible movements.
Favorite movement:
Wall balls. An all-body movement that requires precision, timing, and a high level of fitness to do a large volume.
Favorite things to do outside the gym:
Reading dense, multi-volume presidential biographies. Hang out with my wife and dog.
How did you first get into CrossFit/Hyrox?
I did CrossFit exclusively for 7 years after being inspired by the Games. I signed up for a Hyrox race relatively spur-of-the-moment after reading about it online; I did my first race in 2023 and signed up for 3 more right away.
Why did you decide to become a Hyrox coach?
I love the simplicity of the race that combines movements everyone can do with the added competition of a race that requires pacing and strategy.
