POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I’m deeply passionate about helping more people choose the athlete identity because, in many ways, it saved my life.

During my early depression years, it wasn’t that I suddenly identified as an athlete. I didn’t even know what that meant. But I did choose to be healthier. I chose to work out, eat better, build better routines. I was improving, but it was incremental.

It wasn’t until I found HYROX in 2021 that something really woke up inside me.

It made me more accountable to that identity.
It made me embody it.
It made me show up more consistently in my day-to-day life.

People can debate whether HYROX is a real sport.
They can debate who gets to call themselves an athlete and whether that title is reserved exclusively for elite professionals.

I honestly don’t care.

I care about the bigger picture.
I care about what choosing this identity does for us collectively.

We’re heading into a world where technology is only becoming more embedded in our daily lives. As it speeds us up, it fuels anxiety. As it pulls us apart, it creates more isolation.

The mental health crisis isn’t going anywhere.

I believe HYROX has been a powerful vehicle in addressing that. Not directly, not as a cure, but as a byproduct of creating a sport that’s inclusive and built around challenge and community.

It’s less about status or titles, and more about helping people build internal peace by building real self-worth.

And that becomes the bedrock of stronger individuals who can show up more grounded in the world.

So thank you, @hyroxamerica @hyroxworld @hyroxca

And thank you to the athletes who are speaking positively about this and inspiring others to step into challenge, to find their community, to claim that identity.

This is bigger than a race.

This is @hyroxtown 🚀

Rising tides really do raise all ships and yeah, you will get swallowed up if you’re not showing up in the ATX.
It’s just easier to be fit here. I’m grateful for it.

Elites coming in for training camps.
Everyday athletes, people not even on IG, absolute savages.
It’s addicting. It’s exciting. I love it.

But I love a healthy debate…
what city you got that’s more fit than ATX?

The movement is here.

For me, that movement is people reclaiming the fire inside them, the one that’s been suppressed by modern society.

It’s happening through fitness.
Through setting goals.
Through stepping into competition.

@hyroxamerica has become a massive space for that…
for people to remember what it feels like to be an athlete again.

Because being an athlete isn’t a title.
It’s not something you own.
It’s a choice.

A choice to have a goal.
To take ownership of it.
To train with intention.
And to become a healthier, stronger version of yourself because of it.

I’ve seen it over and over again… when people choose their health,
which is the highest ROI there is,
they become better humans.
And that choice creates ripple effects everywhere they go.

Good energy feels good.
We can all agree on that.
And that shit’s contagious.

So no more bench players.
No more sideline watchers.
Get in the game.

PS - My DC friends know what’s good @alshabes @danielscottkain

You don’t have to do hard things every day.
But you do need to do them if you want to hit your goals.

This is your shot.
@hyroxamerica athletes, it sharpens the exact blade you’ll carry on race day.
Runners, it levels you up because it’s a new demand on the body.

Iron sharpens iron. We chase that edge together.

Every Thursday, 6:30am, Yellowjacket Stadium.

Athletes for Life.

It’s the embodiment of an identity.

When you choose to see yourself as an athlete, it changes how you live… the choices you make, how you take care of your body, and how you show up for others.

Athletes are go-getters. We put in the work. We build better versions of ourselves. And when it’s done with intention, that work deepens the relationship we have with ourselves, which carries into how we connect with the people around us.

You can’t fake the work. You can’t shortcut the process. One sharpens the other.

The revolution is here. Athlete take-over. Setting the standard. Raising it together.

Make your mark.

Athletes don’t wait for the perfect moment.
They create it.
They chase it.
They show up when it’s time to be tested.

This Saturday, July 19th, we’re calling the team together for a mile test.

Meet at 7:30 AM at @squatchfrontierfitness —we’ll jog as a crew to Yellowjacket Stadium to prime the system, get loose, and get ready.

@coachbray__ will lead prep: dynamic drills, sharp strides, focused breathwork.
Then we toe the line and send it.

You’ll run in timed waves, surrounded by others here to leave it all out there.
Not just for the clock but for the confidence you earn on the other side.

Afterward, we jog back to Squatch for contrast recovery + post-run fuel.
@1stphorm is coming through with electrolytes + protein to keep you right.

Free to join. All levels welcome.
New here? Doesn’t matter. You’re on the line now.

You don’t have to be the fastest.
Just come ready to give your best.

This is how we raise the bar.
Together

It’s easy to say we don’t need each other because most of the time, we’ll get by. We’ll survive.
We’ll even make progress.

But what happens when we train together?
When we believe together?
When we’re around people who actually show up for each other?

The quality of everything gets stronger.
Our effort. Our energy. Our confidence. Our care.

And that kind of quality.. you can’t fake it, and you can’t force it.
You just feel it when it’s real.
