If you like to boost your cardio during a workout , Hyrox sessions from Fitness Park are for you! Since October 2024, Fitness Park has announced the launch of its Hyrox classes in its Burning Park in several of its clubs. The gym offers intensive group workouts to prepare for the Hyrox race.
But what does a Hyrox race actually look like? Launched in Germany in 2017, the Hyrox made its debut in France in 2023. Considered one of the most dynamic fitness races in the world, the Hyrox combines 1 km of running with functional movement, repeating this cycle to total 8 different exercises. The advantage of this fitness race is that it's accessible to everyone, whether you're a relay runner or an individual. The aim is to push your limits to the max, and Fitness Park offers to prepare you for this with its Burning Park .
We had the chance to try out a Hyrox training session in the Burning Park at Paris-Diderot 's Fitness Park with a coach. At the start of the class, a connected belt is handed out to everyone so that we can track our heart rate on a giant screen during the session. Sessions are divided into different Hyrox functional movements, such as Skierg, burpees, running, box jumps and walking lunges. Each session lasts 45 minutes and allows you to burn a maximum number of calories while preparing for competition.

Hyrox sessions are accessible to all, because everyone can go at their own pace - the important thing is to excel. On the other hand, if you don't like cardio, don't bother, because the sessions are intense. The Burning Park we tested at Fitness Park Diderot is very well equipped, and you can also work out in a cross-training area on your own or in a group, which is freely accessible from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. with all the necessary equipment.
To take advantage of the Burning Park and Hyrox classes, Fitness Park offers a membership called "Ultimate", which allows you to train with a friend at every session, access online coaching, and all Fitness Park concepts, such as Burning Park, for €50 a month. If you don't want to train with a coach, thecross-training area is available with the "Classic" membership for €30 a month.
