Burpee broad jumps. Are you getting them right?

They're hard enough without having to repeat reps because you've missed a movement standard. 😂

From your starting position and foot placement to where your hands land, there are a few details worth getting right before race day.

And it's not just about avoiding no-reps.

The more familiar you are with the movement, the easier it becomes to find a consistent rhythm, move efficiently and manage your energy across the station.

In this week's Coaching with Katie, we're breaking down the burpee broad jump so you know exactly what to practise.

Get the standards right in training.
Make them second nature on race day.🔥

We asked our members which exercise they’d delete from AMRAP forever.

Wall balls and burpee broad jumps have clearly made a few enemies💀

Your turn. One exercise. Gone forever.
What’s getting the chop? 👇

There's a lot more to HYROX training than what happens on the clock.

🔸There's the effort.
🔸The coaching.
🔸The consistency.
🔸The people who push you, encourage you and make the harder sessions a little more enjoyable.
🔸And then there are all those little moments in between.

The laughs, the conversations and the friendships that have absolutely nothing to do with your finish time.

We take our training seriously.
But there's always room for a bit of fun along the way.

Being strong doesn't automatically make you good at HYROX.
And being a good runner doesn't guarantee it either.

You can have a great squat, a strong deadlift and a fast 5km time, but HYROX asks you to do something quite different.

🔥 Can you repeatedly produce force when your legs are already fatigued?
🔥 Can you maintain your power and technique through 1,000m on the SkiErg or RowErg?
🔥 pCan you keep moving efficiently through 80m of burpee broad jumps, 200m of farmer's carries and 100 wall balls?
🔥 And can you still run well afterwards?

That's where strength, muscular endurance, aerobic fitness and movement efficiency all come together.

Strength gives you the capacity.
HYROX challenges your ability to use it, repeatedly, under fatigue.

It's why good HYROX preparation involves more than just lifting heavy, running fast or practising stations in isolation.

You need all of those qualities working together.

Build strength. Develop endurance. Learn to use both.

Your first kilometre of HYROX can cost you a LOT more than you think. 👀

The music’s pumping, the crowd’s cheering, adrenaline’s through the roof… and suddenly you’re running a pace you haven’t trained for. 😂

The problem? You’ve still got another 7km of running and eight workout stations to get through.

And that first SkiErg is often where you start paying for it.

Go out too hard and you can spend the rest of your race trying to get your breathing and heart rate back under control.

The goal isn’t to run your fastest kilometre first. It’s to run eight kilometres well, with eight stations in between.

Know your pace. Have a plan. And don’t let the excitement of the start line make that decision for you.

You’ll have plenty of opportunities to push later. 🔥

Early mornings or evenings? Apparently that wasn't even a competition 😂

Row or Ski?
Thought Row had it in the bag… until a few late votes for Ski made things interesting.

Some questionable choices from this lot 😂💛

Let's talk about wall balls.
Because apparently I need to 😂

If wall balls are where you fall apart, the obvious answer is to practise more wall balls.

And yes, you absolutely need to practise them.
Technique, timing, accuracy, breathing and finding a rhythm all matter.

But what if the problem isn't just your wall balls? 🤷🏼‍♀️

🔸Maybe your quads fatigue long before your lungs do.
🔸Maybe your shoulders can't sustain the repeated throws.
🔸Maybe your aerobic capacity is limiting how well you manage the effort.
🔸Or maybe you've paced the previous 8km of running and seven stations poorly, and you're arriving at wall balls with nothing left in the tank.

Two athletes can struggle at exactly the same station for completely different reasons.

That's why good HYROX preparation isn't just about practising the stations.
It's about developing the physical qualities you need to perform them well, under fatigue.

So yes, absolutely practise your wall balls.
But don't forget to build the strength, muscular endurance and aerobic capacity that support them.

Don't just identify WHAT you're struggling with.
Understand WHY.

That's what should guide your training 🔥

So, what's changed since Liv started training at AMRAP?
Quite a bit, actually 💪🏻

🫀Her estimated VO₂ max has gone from 43 to 51.
🏋🏼‍♀️She's lifting heavier, her cardio has improved, and she's feeling stronger and more energised.

But what we particularly love is that these improvements haven't come from doing anything extreme.

Liv has found a way to train consistently, make progress and fit it all around everyday life.

And she's continuing to build on that progress.
We love seeing what you're achieving, Liv. 💛
