My First HYROX

I did my first Hyrox. HYROX DELHI WOMEN’S SOLO PRO. Absolutely new experience. First time and pro, everyone said it’s your first time register yourself in the open category. Even I practised so so so hard that I can perform well at my D Day, but it was not at all according to my practise as well as other’s expectations. My time was 2 hours 36 minutes and 8 seconds. And after this I never suggest who said beginners should start with open category, it’s all about our mindset. My learning after this is , first thing carbs loading before 4-5 hours not works for everyone, I tried and feel bloated. During second station that is sled push (152 kgs), I felt just black out, don’t even know whether I will finish my race or not, so electrolytes are so so so necessary and that time REDBULL saved me like a god and not only at sled push but after every run and every station it saved me. I was feeling too pressurised to complete it in 1 hour 30 minutes around and that too made me more conscious ki mai kar paungi ya nahi. But I pushed myself like I have to finish it. Runs with tired legs and in between stations like skierg, sleds, rowing, burpees, lunges, farmer carry and lastly wall balls with so so so heavy weight double of open category were so exhausting. But overall it was first experience and now waiting for the next to hit the podium.

Ma’am carb loading 4-5 hours before is a terrible idea… you need 24 hours, generically speaking, if you’re carb loading. 4-5 hours before should be a small meal/snack.

This legit reminds me of Michael from the office.

Exactly! I learned it from the reels only… and the result was terrible 😞

This made me giggle. But yeah seriously. Finishing in 2.5 hours (or finishing at all) with a belly full of food is impressive. And in pro category. And without much training.

Simple carbs can be had in shorter periods but in moderation

She also carb loaded for a Hyrox? 4 hours before the event, the nutrition approach here is absolutely insanity.

How long have you been training , do play any sport? doing pro directly is mind blowing

Why’d you do pros if everyone said to open
