HYROX Training · Allentown, PA

HYROX Training in Allentown.

Every HYROX station, coached, inside a 4,000 sq ft performance floor. SkiErg, sled push, farmer carry, wall balls, burpee broad jumps, rowing — the work is programmed and the room is built for it.

F13 overview

What HYROX actually is.

HYROX is a standardized global fitness race: eight 1-kilometer runs alternating with eight functional stations. Same format, same standards, same stations whether the race is in Allentown, Austin, Amsterdam, or Tokyo. Your time is globally comparable.

The stations: SkiErg, sled push, sled pull, burpee broad jumps, rowing, farmer carry, sandbag lunges, and wall balls. None of them are exotic. All of them punish you when they stack for an hour.

That's why training for HYROX is specific. You can be a strong lifter and a strong runner and still fall apart the first time you sled-push immediately after a 1k. The ability to move between modalities under fatigue is the trainable skill, and it's what F13 programming targets.

Every HYROX station on the floor.

SkiErg

Concept2 SkiErgs mounted and ready — the same machine you'll hit at a HYROX race.

Sled Push / Pull

Dedicated sled track. Loaded for progressive work at race weight and beyond.

Rowing

Concept2 RowErgs for the 1,000m station and the work that builds into it.

Burpee Broad Jumps

Open floor space for the station HYROX lifters fear most — trained in volume, on the clock.

Farmer Carry

Loading options for every weight class, plus a long enough track to replicate race-distance carries.

Sandbag Lunges

Weighted sandbags and coaching on the pattern — most people's biggest hidden leak at HYROX.

Wall Balls

Regulation-height targets and a range of med balls for every athlete size and phase.

1km Run Pacing

Programmed conditioning and pacing work — because HYROX is still a running race wearing a strength mask.

How the training is structured.

F13 members train a programmed mix of strength, conditioning, and HYROX-specific station work. Newer members scale weights and intervals; competitive HYROX athletes load at race weight and train station transitions under fatigue.

Race prep blocks run in waves leading up to major HYROX events — New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Toronto. Members who compete build in pacing work, race-weight station reps, and transition drills as the event approaches.

For members who don't race, the training still works. HYROX-style programming produces the conditioning a lot of lifters want and the strength most endurance athletes miss. It's a format that doesn't require you to compete to benefit from it.

FAQ.

Is there HYROX training in Allentown, PA?

Yes. F13 Performance Center at Resistance Strength runs programmed small-group HYROX-style work and coaches race prep for members competing at HYROX events.

Do I need to be in shape to start?

No. F13 programming scales. Load and intervals adjust to the member. Progression comes from the programming, not from dropping you into a race-pace workout on day one.

Can I train HYROX without joining F13?

Main-floor RS members get 24/7 access to the building, including the HYROX stations during open hours. F13 Unlimited gets coached sessions plus 24/7 main-floor access — most HYROX-competitive members use a mix.

Who coaches this?

Rob Eschbach (30 years of strength and conditioning coaching) and Payton Eschbach (performance coaching, HYROX-style programming). Both on the floor most days.
