How does HYROX training work at CrossFit BC?

You can book up to 3 HYROX classes per week, and at least one of them should be a 90-minute HX90 SIM-ilar once you are race-prepping. Class-pack credits do not roll over past the pack's validity window, and Open Gym is the place to make up a missed session without spending a credit.

The four rules that shape your training week

Book up to 3 classes a week

Three coached HYROX sessions per week is the cap and the target. It is enough race-specific volume to progress, and it keeps class times available across our 19+ weekly HYROX sessions.

At least one HX90 SIM-ilar weekly

Four of our weekly classes are 90-minute SIM-ilar (HX90) race-prep sessions. Once you have a race on the calendar, make one of your 3 weekly bookings an HX90.

Credits do not roll over

Each class pack has a fixed validity window. Unused classes expire at the end of it, so plan roughly 3 sessions a week and flag travel or injury with a coach early.

Open Gym covers the misses

Missed a booked class or hit the weekly cap? Open Gym is where you make up running, station work, or accessories. It never spends a HYROX credit and is included on 3-, 6-, and 12-month memberships.

HYROX training FAQ

10 questions

How many HYROX classes can I book each week?

You can book up to 3 HYROX classes per week. That cadence keeps the room fair for every athlete on a pack or membership and it is the training dose our coaches build the race-prep cycle around: three quality coached sessions, then recovery, running, and Open Gym around them.

Why is the weekly booking limit 3 classes?

Three coached HYROX sessions a week gives you enough race-specific volume to progress without stacking fatigue on top of your running, strength, and life. It also keeps spots open across our 19+ weekly HYROX classes so members can get the times they need.

How often should I do a 90-minute simulation (HX90)?

At least once a week. We run 4 of our weekly HYROX classes as 90-minute SIM-ilar sessions (HX90), and one of your 3 weekly bookings should be one of them once you have a race on the calendar. That is where pacing, transitions, and station strategy get rehearsed at race intensity and race volume.

Does an HX90 SIM-ilar count as one of my 3 weekly classes?

Yes. An HX90 SIM-ilar books exactly like a 60-minute HYROX class and uses one of your 3 weekly bookings (and one credit if you are on a class pack). SIM-ilar sessions are reserved for active members and pack holders.

Do unused HYROX class credits roll over?

No. Credits do not carry over. Each pack has a fixed validity window, and any classes you have not used by the end of that window expire. Plan roughly 3 sessions a week so your pack finishes with your window, and talk to a coach early if travel or injury is going to interrupt your block.

What happens if I cannot use my credits before they expire?

Tell us before the window closes, not after. Credits do not roll over, but a coach can help you rebuild the plan around the time you actually have, whether that is shifting to fewer weeks at a higher frequency or moving to a membership that fits your schedule better.

Can I use Open Gym instead of a HYROX class?

Yes, as a substitution rather than a replacement. If you miss a booked session or hit the 3-class weekly cap, Open Gym is where you make up running, station work, or accessory pieces on your own. On any monthly membership Open Gym is included and costs you nothing. On a class pack, an Open Gym visit spends one credit, the same as booking a class.

Does an Open Gym session use a HYROX class credit?

On a monthly membership, no. Open Gym is included and it does not touch anything. On a class pack, yes, one Open Gym visit spends one credit, exactly like booking a class.

What should I do in Open Gym on a substitution day?

Ask your coach for the week's makeup piece. Most substitution days are an easy run, a compromised-running interval set, or targeted station practice on the movement that cost you time in your last SIM-ilar. All 8 official stations and the 25-metre lane are available in Open Gym.

How do I book, cancel, or change a HYROX class?

Everything runs through Wodify. Book your 3 sessions for the week as early as you can, and cancel in Wodify if plans change so the spot opens for another athlete and your credit returns.
