BUILD A NUTRITION PLAN
HYROX Recovery
Recovery is a vital part of every HYROX athlete’s training cycle. Giving your body the right nutrients at the right time helps repair muscle damage, restore glycogen levels, and reduce fatigue. Among these nutrients, protein and carbohydrates play a leading role in promoting effective recovery and long-term performance gains.
To maximise the impact of your training sessions, prioritise your post-HYROX recovery strategy. Supplying your body with high-quality recovery nutrition, especially protein, will help you rebuild stronger and come back sharper for your next session.
HYROX Recovery: Insights
READ MOREWhy do I need recovery nutrition?
HYROX training is demanding, combining running and functional movements puts your entire body under stress. This stress breaks down muscle tissue and drains glycogen stores, which can lead to soreness, fatigue, and slower progress if not properly addressed.
Recovery nutrition helps you bounce back faster by delivering the right balance of protein and carbohydrates. Whether it’s a heavy training day or post-race recovery, drinks, bars, or shakes designed for recovery can support muscle repair and energy restoration so you’re ready for the next session.
What's the difference between recovery bars and recovery powder?
Both options are designed to support your post-HYROX recovery, but they differ in format. Recovery bars offer a convenient, snack-like texture you can take with you anywhere, while recovery powders are made to mix with water or smoothies. Choose bars for portability or powders for faster absorption post-session, the best option is the one that fits your training lifestyle.
