Do you have plans in March? 👀 We hope not because we're expecting you in Mions with 1 or 3 of your friends for a crazy challenge! 🤪 The gym Be Sport Be Free (with this name, you're sure to give it your all just by arriving at the gym 🔥), welcomes you and your crew to bring it on. On the agenda 📋, a good HYROX challenge in a team or in a duo 🧑🧑🧒🧒. With a mix of running and fitness, it's a good detox 🤌.
The concept is simple, 16 stages, consisting of 8 km of running 🏃 and 8 functional exercises. The whole sequence is staggered as follows: 1 km of running then 1 fitness exercise 🏋️♀️ repeated 8 times. Quite simple on paper, right? But you may wonder, what are the different functional exercises? 🤨 In HYROX, there are several tests that make you move and sweat 😰. You pull, push, throw, lift, row… 💥 We start with the arms with 1,000 m of skierg 💪. As the name suggests, it looks like your arm movement when you're gliding on ski slopes ⛷️. Second exercise, 50 m of sled push, where you push with all your might ⚡️ to move the “sled”. You then follow with 2,000 m of bike. If you're a bit bilingual, you understand that this time, you'll be pedaling fast for 2 km 🚴. Fourth exercise, 80 m of burpee broad jumps. Finally, a series not weighted with your body weight, but one of the most dreaded 🥵.
We're already halfway through the challenge, only 4 exercises left! ✨ After skiing, it's time to row 🚣. You'll continue with 1 km of rowing, pushing with your legs and pulling with your arms. A bit of calm for the 6th exercise 🧘, with 200 m of a farmer carry. A little weighted walk, where the best is to go all out! 💣 Two more exercises, starting with 100 m of Sandbag Lunges, now it's starting to pull on the thighs… 🦵 Finally, the last exercise and not the least: 100 wall ball 🏐. A nice sequence: a squat and a weight throw above your head. Yes, on paper it was simple 📝, but upon closer inspection, it's not the same! But as we said, you won't be alone! 👯 This event is done in 2s or 4s. So all you have to do is persuade your friends to take on this crazy challenge! 🎉 What's certain is that you'll be proud of yourself at the end 😋. And since they really think of everyone, they even organize a race for kids 🧒. Enough to bring the whole family together for a beautiful afternoon! But it's not over, because to top it all off, there'll be a food truck on-site 🍟, so even your cravings are invited 😏. With that, all conditions are perfect for a good time 😌.
After such an exertion, it's better to recover calmly 💤. Just about twenty minutes by car is the beautiful city of Lyon 🌸. A walk in the Parc de la Tête d’Or will have you walking to avoid soreness 😵💫. With a nice tour, you can even visit the zoo inside 🦒. Otherwise, a simple visit to the city will suffice, the beauty of the streets will make you forget everything! For that, stroll around Vieux-Lyon or on the Presqu'île, along the banks 🪷. And to recover even better, as we know, a good meal is the best 🤌. Book a table in a Lyonnais bouchon, and the flavors will be there. And to finish well, a good sweet touch 😛, preferably Lyonnais. Nothing better than a praline brioche, soft and indulgent 🍞.
Send a message directly to your next companions and start your training now! 🏋 You will need strength, mental toughness, endurance, and of course motivation 🌟.
