TH x Nike presents HOUSE OF ATHLETES

We finally made it. We put our heart and soul into creating this space. We genuinely wanted to build something that could serve athletes, coaches, families, and community the way we always dreamed a performance center could.

From day one, we obsessed over the details.

Branding + Aesthetics - we cared about every visual cue, every material, every small touch. Branding and collaboration hotspots with Nike, HyperIce, and ElectroX placed strategically, not loudly. Because the space should inspire effortlessly without shouting.

Flow and Function - we visualized how the whole space moves together. Complex workout formats and set-ups, movement flow, multiple training zones - it all had to feel seamless.

Storage and Efficiency - instead of buying storage racks off the market, we chose to re-invent how equipment is stored. Coaches and members both needed quick, intuitive access and storage without sacrificing aesthetics.

Tech That Serves - we applied AI and built custom products with one goal: genuinely enhance the experience for coaches and members.

The Wall Ball Counter - state-of-the-art, intuitive, accurate, and no leniency.

Community Over Everything - we made sure real human connection and exposure of our community was being appreciated.

The Hardware - 36 curved treadmills. 12 inclined treads that go up to 40% or drop to -6 degrees. A 100m farmer’s carry track. 16 sled lanes and more.

Recovery That Matches the Work - a hydrocontrast therapy zone with sauna, steam room, ice bath, and hot pool. Because recovery isn’t an afterthought - it’s part of the training.

For the Next Generation - a dedicated kids’ training zone with obstacles built to UIPM and Spartan standards.

For Families - a family lounge for parents siblings to relax, work or play

For Connection - a club house lounge and recovery corner with HyperIce. And a lounge bar in partnership with ElectroX to refuel.

House of Athletes is open. And if you’re reading this… you are part of it now.

You are not here by chance.

55:24 - Men’s Doubles · HYROX Shanghai
2nd AG, 3rd Overall

Updated 2025-2025 Hyrox Doubles Rules:
- Wall Ball: allows passing the ball directly from hand to hand
- Farmer’s Carry: allows handing over. No need to drop as long it’s handed over backwards, not side ways or in the front.

We had to scrap the original 53-minute game plan and just vibe with how we were feeling. Legs were cooked from day 1, breathing was absolutely sending me from my sore throat a week before, and those wall balls, no comment 😅.

The highlight was sharing the floor with my mate Johnny @quacktieu . We fed off each other’s energy the entire time and had an absolute blast. Sync was intuitive, communication was crisp, transitions were buttery. Absolute vibes.

Next up: Linking with @josephcsun for Pro Doubles in Shenzhen. Time to lock in and leave it all out there. Let’s go!

Designing this BBJ turf was pretty fun. The issue was always how can you clearly see someone goes too far out with their hands when doing BBJs. The goal was to make it easier to gauge for both coaches and athletes. And like I mentioned before, when there is no existing solution you just create them yourself.

Originally, from one middle-of-line to the other middle-of-line was 30cm, but that messed up the numbers and looked confusing. So I switched it to 25cm, so 4 parts would equal 1 meter. Clean and simple. Each line is 2cm thick, so if you land just before a line and place your hands past the next one, that’s 27cm. Close enough, right? Give yourself 2-3cm leeway it’s also a lot safer.

Whether you land on or between the lines, you’ll naturally feel where your hands should go. @hyroxworld should honestly just implement this. It’d make judging so much easier for everyone. Performance coaches and judges can instantly see if an athlete’s hands go past the limit, and athlete’s get a much better feel for the distance and where to put their hands. What do you guys think?

The Wall Ball Wall + Electronic Counter
Designed this wall from scratch and happy with how it turned out.

The goal: immediate access to wall balls — no more traveling to pick them up. That was a hassle for both members and coaches. And there is generally no proper solution for sled pull ropes either. So when there’s no good solution, you come up with one.

And of course, the electronic WB counter. I designed the UI/UX and worked with an engineer and developer for at least half a year, testing different methods — pressure sensors, all sorts of things. Slow process at first, but once the whole frame was done, with all the functions, it got a lot smoother. Just lots of debugging.

Oh, and this electronic screen is way stricter than HYROX’s screens — so none of you get the chance to slack now 😂 You MUST hit the center “X.” And no, ladies, hitting the bottom of the plate doesn’t count. This is actually a loophole HYROX still hasn’t fixed in competition.

Finally can say I’m pretty satisfied with the outcome and all the effort we put in. It all paid off.

WHAT. A. NIGHT.

The community came together at Temporary Humans, Shanghai‘s HYROX training hub, for an exclusive workshop with our Global HYROX Athlete, Jeremy McConnell 🔥

Athletes from HYROX, CrossFit, American football, rowing, and Team ELECTRO X packed the gym for an evening of learning from one of the world’s best.

Fresh off an incredible performance at the HYROX World Championships as an Elite 15 athlete, Jeremy broke down what it really takes to go sub-60. From doubles transition strategy to solo race mindset, and from lactic threshold training, to one-on-one coaching, every minute was packed with practical insights and real race experience.

The energy in the room was unreal. Great questions. Great discussions. Even better athletes.

Huge thanks to everyone who showed up ready to learn, improve, and push their limits!

If you‘re serious about taking your HYROX performance to the next level, stay tuned for our next Elite 15 Workshop.
📍Next stop: Hangzhou
