60–90% of endurance athletes underfuel.
The wall, cramp and overheating are fuelling failures — not fitness failures.
Hitting the Wall
Hyrox sits at near-maximal intensity for 60–75 minutes. Glycogen burns faster than any endurance event at this duration. By station 5, athletes are running on empty — and there are still three stations to go.
Energy Gels
Cramps
Hyrox generates intense, compressed sweat loss — more sodium and potassium depleted per minute than most endurance events. Calf and hamstring cramps in the final three stations aren't bad luck. They're a deficit built up from the first.
Electrolytes
Heat
Indoor venues are hot. Crowd, effort, and a closed environment mean core temperature climbs faster than any outdoor race. Heat is a performance variable before you've hit station 3.
