HYROX race week is not the time to “eat clean” by underfueling, skipping carbohydrates, or testing a new supplement. My goal for HYROX DC 2026 is to arrive with full glycogen stores, a settled stomach, consistent hydration and a race-day plan I have already practiced in training.

Taper week is not about squeezing in one more hard workout or testing fitness. It is the deliberate reduction of training stress so the fitness built through months of running, strength work and HYROX-specific sessions can show up on race day.

Zone 2 is a key part of building the endurance, recovery, and long-term performance needed for fat loss, HYROX, and life outside the gym.

Wearable technology can be an incredibly helpful tool, but it should empower you, not make you anxious. Your recovery score is not your worth. A lower HRV does not mean you failed. A missed sleep goal does not erase your progress. Use your data to get curious, not critical.

Hybrid training is more than a trend—it's the foundation of how I coach. Whether you're preparing for your first HYROX event or simply looking to build strength, improve endurance, and perform at your best, my coaching is designed to help you train with purpose.

With a few smart strategies, you can order meals that support your nutrition goals while still enjoying the foods and restaurants you love. The secret is simple: prioritize protein first.

A strong HYROX performance comes from developing the systems that matter most: efficient movement, balanced strength, a powerful aerobic engine, and the ability to maintain speed under fatigue. When those pieces come together, race day feels less like survival and more like execution.

A 1:06 finish in HYROX Pro Doubles didn’t come from overtraining or adding more volume. It came from a focused HYROX training strategy that prioritized running efficiency, strength balance, and sustainable endurance.

This is your High-Protein Restaurant Survival Guide, built around the Add a Zero method, so you can walk into any restaurant, fast-food spot, or coffee run and know exactly how to order.

You don’t have to choose between a social life and your fitness goals. The real secret is knowing what to order and how to spot foods that are actually high in protein, not just marketed that way.

Hormonal shifts affect how you store fat and recover from training. Stress has a bigger metabolic impact. "Eating healthy" without tracking often means under-eating protein and over-eating everything else — which is exactly the pattern that stalls fat loss for women in this season of life.

Summer is about 8 weeks away. Trips are booked. Pool days and beach photos are coming. The reunion, the wedding, the vacation you swore you’d “be ready for” is right around the corner—and you’re still telling yourself the same story: “I’ll start next week.”

If you have been hearing about HYROX and wondering what it is, or if you are thinking about signing up for your first race, this guide will give you everything you need to know.

An effective 8-week transformation is not about doing more. It is about doing the right things, in the right order, with the right level of guidance.

Vacations are booked. Pool parties are on the calendar. The wedding, the reunion, the trip you said you’d “be ready for” is breathing down your neck. And you’re sitting here, in the same body, telling yourself the same lie: “I’ll start next week.”

If you've been following along with my April Core Challenge, you already know the secret: building real core strength doesn't require hours in the gym, fancy equipment, or endless crunches.

You've already done the hard part in training. Taper week is about trusting that work, showing up fresh, and giving your body the chance to actually express your fitness on race day. The gains you're hoping to see won't come from cramming in extra sessions. They'll come from letting your body recover and perform at its best.

If you are over 35 and feel like your body is not responding the way it used to, you are not alone. The truth is, your body after 35 does not need another harsh reset. It needs a thoughtful rebuild.
