What is Hyrox?
Hyrox is a global fitness competition that blends functional workouts with endurance running. Think:
- Sled pushes & pulls
- Rowing
- Wall balls
- Farmer’s carries
- Sandbag lunges
- And lots more sweat
It’s one of the world’s fastest-growing fitness races — and it’s built for all levels.
Whether you’re brand new to fitness, bouncing back from life stuff, or training for a podium finish, Hyrox is for you… and now you can train right here in Wantage!
Why train for Hyrox here ?
At Engine House Gym, we’ve been coaching Hyrox-style training before it even had a name. We specialise in:
- Barbell & kettlebell strength training
- Mobility coaching to prevent injury
- Sustainable conditioning for long-term health
We’re based in Ardington, just outside Wantage, with a welcoming community and a team that gives a damn.
You don’t need to be fast. You don’t need to be strong. You just need to start.

FAQs.
Do I need to be fit to try Hyrox?
Not at all. We coach from where you’re at. Every movement can be adapted, and your first step is just showing up.
What should I bring to a taster class?
Trainers, water, and a bit of willingness. We’ll guide the rest.
I’ve never done anything like this before – is it intimidating?
Nope. Our vibe is “cheerful badassery” — no egos, no pressure, just support and sweat.
