Race guides
How the big fitness races work, station by station. Rep walks you round each arena.
Fitness racing mixes running with functional workouts like sled pushes, rowing, wall balls and heavy lifts, and turns them into an event anyone can enter. Each guide explains one race from start to finish: the format, what happens at every station or zone, the weights for every division, how it's judged and scored, and how people qualify for the championships. Every guide has an interactive pixel-art arena: pick a spot on the floor and Rep shows you what happens there.
How HYROX works
HYROX is an indoor fitness race. You run 1 km, then do one workout station, eight times over: 8 km of running and 8 stations, always in the same order. The fastest total time wins, and the format is the same at every race in the world, so times can be compared.- 10 stops in race order, each demonstrated by Rep

How ATHX Games works
ATHX Games is a hybrid fitness competition that tests strength, endurance and conditioning in one session. You move through six zones in about two and a half hours: a warm-up, a 20-minute strength test, a refuel break, a 22-minute run and row, a recovery break and a final circuit called MetCon X. Three of the zones are scored.- 6 stops in race order, each demonstrated by Rep

HYROX or ATHX Games?
HYROX is one continuous race against the clock: eight 1 km runs, each followed by a workout station, with the same format and weights at every event in the world. It suits runners and anyone who likes a single, steady effort.
ATHX Games splits the day into separate tests with breaks in between: max-effort strength lifts, a run and row for distance, and a final circuit for time. It suits athletes who are strong as well as fit, since heavy lifting is one of the three scored tests.
