n8n is one of the most useful tools I have found in the last year

I'm currently working on a flow that automatically creates SEO & analytics reports for my websites and then sends them to me via telegram.

Starting HYROX training felt overwhelming, like I was completely lost.

But through the mess, I found a better way.

Now Iโ€™m focused, motivated, and excited to share whatโ€™s working.

11.12.2024 09:14 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I began my HYROX journey, excited.

Then, I faced a wall of endless training plans and confusing advice.

It was exhausting.

But I turned that frustration into something positive, and Iโ€™m feeling stronger than ever.

Whether you're HYROX-curious or hunting for a PR, the programming adapts.

I've seen both newbies and veterans thrive on this - it's that versatile.

Plus, they actually understand recovery (your body will thank you!)

Real talk - what to consider:

โ€ข It's a 6-day commitment
โ€ข Some sessions run up to 100 mins
โ€ข You need HYROX equipment access

But for โ‚ฌ1/day? The value is incredible.

09.12.2024 10:57 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

The good stuff:

โ€ข Rare combo of CrossFit AND HYROX expertise
โ€ข Workouts that grow with you

Perfect fit if:

โ€ข HYROX isn't just a hobby for you

09.12.2024 10:57 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Each session mixes running, strength, and conditioning - all race-focused and adaptable to YOUR level.

The best part?

You can actually fit this into a normal life. No insane 2-a-days or marathon gym sessions.

What I love most?
