Commercial Gym HYROX Workout
A HYROX session designed for a gym that has no sled, no sandbag and a queue for the squat rack. Every station gets a substitute that exists in every commercial gym on earth, and the session still finishes in 45 minutes on a busy floor.

Coaching notes
- Dumbbell thrusters are the best wall ball substitute in a gym without a target. Same squat, same overhead finish, no ball.
- If the floor allows it, a loaded plate on a folded towel pushes almost exactly like a light sled.
- Book the equipment mentally before you start. Losing the rower mid-round turns a 45-minute session into 70.

Sets, reps and rest are written for a intermediate athlete. Scale the load first and the rest second. If the movement falls apart, drop the weight before you add rest.
Where does this fit in a plan?
One session is a session. Sequence it into a week built around your race date and your weakest station on the training plan, or let the generator write one in the same format around your kit and time.
