Hyrox takes Paris by storm at the Grand Palais
Endurance, strength and competitive spirit: the Hyrox is set to electrify the Grand Palais. This weekend, over 12,000 participants are expected to take part in the most dynamic discipline of the moment. A unique opportunity to find out why this hybrid sport is such a hot topic.
An explosive format: between a functional effort and a meticulous show
Born in Germany in 2017, the Hyrox competition combines eight functional events with eight kilometers of running. The aim? Complete the entire course in record time. Ski erg, sled push, rowing machine, burpees or wall balls… the whole body is put to the test.
But beyond the physical challenge, it’s the atmosphere that makes the difference: each event is held in an emblematic venue. And this time, it’s the Grand Palais that becomes the arena for this sporting battle. The perfect combination of spectacle and sweat in a grandiose setting.
Hyrox, an inclusive sport? Yes, it really is.
Contrary to what the images of sculpted bodies and explosions of testosterone on Instagram might suggest, the Hyrox is designed for everyone. Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just a fitness enthusiast, the format is adaptable: solo, duo or four-man relay, everything is done to make the discipline accessible.
And the figures speak for themselves: over 550,000 athletes took part in a Hyrox competition during the 2023-2024 season. Exponential growth driven by a strong community spirit and prestigious partnerships, such as Therabody, the competition’s official equipment supplier.
