Taking on a challenge like HYROX or METRIX is no small thing. These events are full body tests of fitness, grit and focus. Whether it is your first race or you are chasing a faster time, Edge is here to get you ready the smart way.
We are proud to be the official training partner of METRIX – a fast growing race series that blends accessible conditioning with serious competition. You can check out their upcoming events here.
What to Expect in Events Like HYROX or METRIX
Conditioning style races blend strength and endurance with a few surprises. You will likely face:
Rowing and ski erg sprints
Sled pushes and pulls
Farmer’s carries, lunges and wall balls
Burpees, push ups or other bodyweight exercises
Exercises with short rest to push your engine to the limit
These events are not just about being fit. They are about being well rounded, mentally strong and ready to dig deep.
How Edge Prepares You for Races Like HYROX and METRIX
1. Build your base
You need more than just intensity. Our plans build your aerobic engine, strength and movement quality over time. This gives you a strong base so you can handle hard sessions without burning out.
2. Train the movements you will see
We include sleds, carries, ergs and circuits in your weekly plan. The goal is to build up your skills and efficiency in the same types of movements you will face on the course.
3. Improve your strength under fatigue
Tasks like lunges or wall balls feel very different when your heart rate is high. We help you train for that. Our mix of resistance and HIIT sessions helps you perform better when tired.
4. Build endurance without breaking down
You will do long intervals, steady runs and low impact cardio to build lasting endurance. We combine this with recovery strategies to keep your body fresh and progressing.
5. Practice transitions and pacing
HYROX and METRIX are about managing your effort. Our sessions teach you how to move station to station, stay focused and keep a rhythm that works for your body.
6. Sharpen your mindset
These races test more than just fitness. Edge helps you build mental strength and race day confidence so you can show up feeling ready to give it your all.
