Downward Dog Toe Taps
A dynamic pike-position drill that preps the hamstrings, calves, and shoulders for compromised running and the transition between stations.
Movement standards:
Hips stay high throughout the movement
Controlled, alternating movement — not speed
Shoulders stable over the hands
Soft, slightly bent knees on each toe tap, never locked
Weight moves through the whole foot, not just the toes
Part of my HYROX warm-up series — built as a physiotherapist and HYROX athlete. Full training programs at roxphysio.dk.
