Hyrox Elite 15 athletes

Lauren and Charlie race at the top level of Hyrox! As regular clients, our tests help them precisely understand their bodies but also to learn more about each other. They gain insights regarding where to focus their training for both solo and double races and how to work together on the course!

Training for a half marathon

“I thought I was training hard enough but going nowhere. The test showed me I was spending almost all my time in the wrong zones. I got faster within weeks of proper training. Thanks”

Massive improvement within weeks
Harleen portrait

Harleen

Fitness Enthusiast

“I nearly didn't book because I thought this was only for elite athletes. The earlobe prick was nothing and I got my report in two days. Now I run three times a week instead of four but I'm improving faster!”

Getting faster doing less!

Phil

Elite 15 coach

“Data is really important...without it you are basically just guessing. I'm really up for putting myself and my clients through these tests to get the most out of training!”

Jordan

Hyrox athlete

“I took the test because I was never sure about my Hyrox running pace. I either went out too fast or had too much left in the tank. The results showed me exactly where my thresholds sat and gave me a precise pace to target.”

4 minute PB two weeks later.

Founder of Heathwood Triathlon, Multiple Ironman Finisher

“I have Ironman Wales in a months time and the London Marathon next year. I now know exactly where my body is at for this Ironman and know what I need to work on for the marathon!”

Data for the swim, bike and run!

Matt

Hyrox Elite Athlete and UFIT Coach

“I needed to get this test but had a negative experience elsewhere. This was so professionally done and they made sure the data was useful, practically not just numbers.”

Needed useful, practical data
Adam portrait

Adam

Experienced runner, aiming for a sub 2hr20 marathon

“This is a really great service to inform runners of where their thresholds actually are. They can use the data to inform their training rather than leaning towards overtraining, fatigue and injury”

Avoiding overtraining, fatigue and injury

“Really great service to have in house at Team Rees and I'm looking forward to seeing how my training improves my numbers!”

Completed first marathon

“I work long hours and can only train a few times a week. Learning about my body was vital in making sure every session counted.”

Busy job, no junk miles!

Multiple Hyrox flags won, Bodger is knocking on the door of Elite 15. Since opening KORE, he has become time constrained and needs to train efficiently.

“Found out my engine was more developed than I thought so I had the confidence to push myself on the runs and cardio stations”

Fitter than he thought!

Very fast runner!

“I had been stuck at a plateau for a long time. This helped me break through and achieve my best ever time of 1hr30 for the half marathon.”

What You Get

Your body's data, made simple and actionable.

Professional athletes don't guess. They test, train precisely and keep improving. That same ability is now available to you.

An example lactate threshold curve. Blood lactate (mmol/L) is plotted against running speed (km/h). The background is shaded into three areas by the two dashed thresholds: green below the aerobic threshold, yellow between the thresholds, and red above the anaerobic threshold. A colour bar beneath the chart maps the five training zones, from Z1 recovery up to Z5 VO2max. A small toggle switches the horizontal axis between running speed (km/h) and cycling power (watts). The aerobic and anaerobic thresholds are the first and second lactate thresholds we identify in your test.
