3 Tips to Improve Your Sled Pull πŸ›·πŸ”₯

1. Keep constant tension
Keep the rope tight-especially at the start of each pull. Any slack leaks energy and breaks your rhythm.

2. Drive with your legs
Walk back with long arms and generate power through your legs, not your arms. Think strong, steady leg drive with every pull.

3. Use the entire box
Use the entire 1.8m box to cover more distance with fewer pulls.

All the best to those racing this weekend in Melbourne!πŸ”₯

3 Tips to Improve Your Burpee Broad Jumps in Your Next HYROX πŸš€

β€’ Stay Low Through the Movement
Keeping your chest and hips low between reps reduces unnecessary vertical movement, saving energy and keeping your heart rate under control. This sets you up for smoother, faster transitions.

β€’ Find a Sustainable Rhythm
Aim for a steady, repeatable pace-smooth > explosive. It helps manage fatigue over the full 80 meters, whereas going out too hot can lead to a mid-station blow-up.

β€’ Choose Smart Rest Points
If you need a quick breather, rest at the bottom of the burpee (chest to ground) or immediately after the jump. Standing fully upright kills momentum and makes it harder to get moving again, while resting low keeps you in an efficient position to continue.

πŸ‘‰Reminder these are tips that have worked for myself and clients. Everyone’s built differently, so experiment and find what works best for you πŸ™Œ

Mental health is something so many people navigate quietly-friends, family, teammates, and people we see every day. It’s often unseen, but it’s always real, and the support people receive can make a massive difference.

This December, I’ll be lining up at HYROX Melbourne as part of Race for Impact, helping raise money and awareness for mental health. The aim is to use the race as a platform to bring people together, start conversations, and support those who need it through connection, movement, and community.

If you feel like getting behind the cause-donating, sharing the link, or simply checking in on someone-it all helps. Every bit of support goes towards creating more resources and more understanding for the people who need it most.

Link in bio with all the details.
Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read and support, it genuinely makes a difference. πŸ™

3 Tips to Level Up Your Wall Balls for Your Next HYROX πŸ”₯🎯

1. Dial in Your Positioning
Set up roughly an arm’s length from the wall-close enough to keep the movement compact, far enough to let the ball travel naturally. Hold the ball high at your chest with elbows tucked and thumbs behind. Keep the ball tight to your torso on the catch to reduce shoulder fatigue. If you notice the ball pulling you forward or landing ahead of your feet, that’s your cue you’re standing too far out.

2. Use an Explosive, Efficient Squat
Sit into a deep, balanced squat where your hip crease drops below your knees. As you rise, push powerfully through your legs and let that force transfer into the throw - your arms should guide, not do the heavy lifting. Aim straight for the centre of the target to keep your rhythm locked in.

3. Match Your Breathing to Your Reps
Exhale as you drive up and release the ball - this keeps you powerful and stable. Inhale on the way down as you catch and settle into your next squat. A smooth breathing rhythm keeps your heart rate steadier and helps you maintain form deep into fatigue.

πŸ’¬ These are the cues that have consistently helped myself and clients. Everyone’s built differently, so experiment and find what works best for you.

πŸš€ I’m now officially a HYROX Performance Coach!

I recently completed the HYROX Level 1 Coaching Course and thoroughly enjoyed it. The course is incredibly well structured, combining instructional videos, readings, and quizzes that make learning both engaging and practical.

If you’re looking to coach HYROX athletes, this course is an absolute must! πŸ‘‡

My 5 Key Takeaways from the HYROX Level 1 Coaching Course:

1️⃣ Coaching for Everyone
The HYROX community includes athletes of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities. Great coaching means being adaptable, empathetic and creative, meeting athletes where they are and helping them reach their potential.

2️⃣ Holistic Performance Demands
HYROX requires endurance, strength, speed, power, coordination, and flexibility. Understanding how to develop and balance these elements within a program is key to athlete success.

3️⃣ Nutrition Matters
Nutrition underpins HYROX performance, recovery, and race-day readiness. Knowing how to optimise macronutrients, micronutrients, supplements, and fuelling strategies is crucial for maximising results.

4️⃣ Coaching Beyond Programming
Effective coaching goes far beyond sets and reps. True mastery lies in developing soft skills such as communication, emotional intelligence, mindset, and relationship building. Supporting athletes through building mental resilience, preventing burnout, and managing race-day nerves are key examples of this in practice.

5️⃣ The Power of Periodisation
Year-round HYROX training is possible when programs are smartly periodised. Structuring training phases with clear objectives helps prevent burnout, reduce injury risk, and ensure athletes peak when it matters most.

It’s incredible to see how fast HYROX is growing and the community that’s forming around it. I’m pumped to keep helping more people get involved, achieve their goals, and experience everything this amazing sport has to offer. πŸ™Œ
