Women’s Fitness Influencer Sara Saffari Denies Trying Hyrox Training

With this comment, Saffari hinted that she has not used Hyrox training. So, what exactly is Hyrox training?

It is a standardized fitness race that includes 8 kilometers of running and 8 workout stations.

According to Medical News Today, the 8 workout stations are:

• cross-country ski machine, SkiErg (1,000 meters)
• sled push (50 meters)
• sled pull (50 meters)
• burpee broad jumps (80 repetitions)
• rowing (1,000 meters)
• farmers carry (200 meters)
• sandbag lunges (100 meters)
• wall balls (100 repetitions).

It became controversial because it removes complex capacity, focuses on accessibility, and places intense strain on the cardiovascular system. So, there are some risks associated with Hyrox training, including:

• High risk of injury
• Heart strain
• Turf Consistency.

So, if not Hyrox, what exercises does Saffari follow?
