| Brad Stulberg on HYROX: Goal Setting, Patience, and the Real Path to Excellence | 19 Mar 2026 | 00:47:02 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast, I’m joined by Brad Stulberg. Brad is a bestselling author whose books include Peak Performance, The Practice of Groundedness, and Master of Change. His latest book, The Way of Excellence, explores what it really means to pursue excellence in sport, work, and life. In this conversation, we dive into what excellence actually is - and some of the biggest misconceptions around it. We talk about goal setting for athletes, how to stay motivated when progress inevitably slows down, and why curiosity might be one of the most powerful mindsets you can bring into training and racing. We also get into patience, failure, consistency, and the traps that stop athletes from reaching their potential. If you’re chasing progress in HYROX or any performance-based sport, there’s a lot in here that will change how you think about training and improvement. 🔗 Subscribe for more episodes 💥 Supporters of this Episode 🏅 MyProtein – Affordable, high-quality supplements to support your HYROX training.

| Rachael Wade on HYROX: Building Elite Speed on 8 Hours a Week Training | 12 Mar 2026 | 00:42:09 | |
Rachael Wade has only raced HYROX Pro twice, but she’s already clocked a 61-minute PB and finished 2nd overall in Las Vegas - an incredible start to her HYROX career. What makes it even more impressive is that she’s doing it on around 7–8 hours of training per week while balancing life as a mum of two and running her own nutrition practice. In this conversation, we talk about how she made the jump into HYROX after a collegiate running career, the training philosophy that’s helped her improve quickly, and why focusing on strength rather than big running mileage has been key to her early results. We also go deep into sports nutrition. As a registered dietician, Rachael shares practical advice on fuelling for HYROX, common signs athletes may be under-fuelling, how lab testing can highlight recovery issues, and which supplements she believes can actually make a difference. Along the way we also discuss balancing elite sport with family life, the mindset she uses when races get tough, and why she believes you may not need as much training volume as you think to perform at a high level. 🔗 Subscribe for more episodes 💥 Supporters of this Episode 🏅 MyProtein – Affordable, high-quality supplements to support your HYROX training.

| Vivian Tafuto on HYROX: Elite Podiums, Doubles World Records, and Balancing a Full-Time Job | 05 Mar 2026 | 00:57:37 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast, I’m joined by Vivian Tafuto - one of the most consistent performers on the Elite 15 circuit. Vivian opened the season with a huge PB and 2nd place finish in Hamburg, followed it up with another podium in Phoenix, and has twice broken the HYROX Pro Doubles World Record alongside Lauren Weeks. All while working full-time as an actuary. We dive into what’s changed in her training, how she overcooked her volume before Worlds last year, and why she now believes doing slightly less might actually unlock more performance. We also discuss:
Vivian is open about pressure, expectations, and learning to separate happiness from race results. It’s a thoughtful, honest conversation with one of the sport’s smartest competitors. If you’re chasing progression in HYROX - whether you’re aiming for a podium or your first sub-70 - there’s plenty in here you can apply to your own training. It was a great chat with a great athlete, and I think you’ll really enjoy it. 🔗 Subscribe for more episodes 💥 Supporters of this Episode 🏅 MyProtein – Affordable, high-quality supplements to support your HYROX training.

| The New HYROX Elite Qualifying System Explained - From Times to Points with Mat Lock | 20 Jan 2026 | 00:56:53 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast, I’m joined by Mat Lock, HYROX’s Global Head of Sport and Technical Director of Elite Racing. Mat sits right at the centre of one of the biggest changes HYROX has made in recent years - the move away from time-based qualification and towards a points-based system for elite racing. We break down why the change was needed, what problems it’s trying to solve, and how it reshapes the pathway from Open to Pro and into the Elite 15. We also get into the wider knock-on effects, including how often elite athletes may need to race, course fairness across venues, strength of field, and the growing role of athlete licensing. Beyond qualification, Mat answers questions on course temperature, the dedicated elite race setup, time-based penalties, doubles formats, and what’s next for elite HYROX racing. It’s an open, detailed conversation that offers real insight into how HYROX is evolving at the sharp end of the sport, and what these changes mean for athletes aiming to compete at the highest level. 🔗 Subscribe for more episodes 💥 Supporters of this Episode 🏅 MyProtein – Affordable, high-quality supplements to support your HYROX training.

| Faisal Abdalla on HYROX, PMA, and What He’s Learned as a HYROX MC | 27 Nov 2025 | 00:57:41 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast, I’m chatting with Faisal Abdalla. You’ll likely know him as one of the HYROX MCs and the voice you hear at finish lines around the world, but he’s far more than that. Faisal trains hard, races regularly, and recently completed a half Ironman while juggling HYROX events, coaching, and family life. We talk about how he approaches the role, how his PMA philosophy guides him on and off the mic, and the insights he’s gained from watching thousands of athletes race, struggle, and finish right in front of him. We also get into the moments that stand out after years inside the arena, what it takes to give that much energy every weekend, and how he’s built a career that spans Barry’s Bootcamp, coaching, film sets, and some of the biggest HYROX stages in the world. It was a fun and honest chat, and I think you’ll really enjoy it. 🔗 Subscribe for more episodes 💥 Supporters of this Episode 🏅 MyProtein – Affordable, high-quality supplements to support your HYROX training.

We dig into how she balances training with real life, what she learned from the injuries that kept her out for much of 2024, and why gratitude sits at the centre of her approach to racing and performance. You’ll hear her honest take on the current HYROX qualifying system, the training structure that keeps her consistent, how she navigates being strong across multiple disciplines, and why female athletes should pay closer attention to their hormonal cycle.

| Inside the Mind of Elite HYROX Athlete Dylan Scott | 28 Aug 2025 | 01:06:34 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast we chat with Dylan Scott. Dylan has been a fixture at the elite level of HYROX for years and most recently finished 3rd in the Elite 15 at the 2025 World Championships. In this conversation we cover a lot. We spend time on the mental side of performance - from his “why,” to the growth that’s helped him stop getting in his own way, to his mindset on the start line, and the lessons he’s taken from both setbacks and podium finishes. We also dive into his training, the drama of Chicago World Championships, and the story behind his fiery “Do I have to remind you who I am?” Vegas win. It's always fun talking with Dylan - I think you’ll really enjoy it. 🔗 Subscribe for more episodes 💥 Supporters of this Episode 🏅 MyProtein – Affordable, high-quality supplements to support your HYROX training.

| Hugo Hugemark on Smarter HYROX Training, Progress Testing, and Erging Right | 24 Jul 2025 | 01:02:20 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I’m chatting with Hugo Hugemark (@athletehugo). Hugo recently captained the Sweden relay team at the HYROX World Championships and has a PB of 56:32 in the Men’s Pro division — and just wait until you hear what he did the day before, and even the morning of, setting that PB - it’s pretty incredible! He's become known in HYROX for his relentless work ethic but there is much more to him than just being a hard worker - he has a laser focused mindset, and takes an intelligent, calculated approach to performance. We get into some brilliant stuff in this one — from the mental side of training, to the test protocols he uses to track his progress in training, the role of treadmills in HYROX prep, why so many people get the Ergs wrong, and how to actually structure volume and intensity for you. There is so much to take away from this whatever level you’re at – Hugo is great and I think you'll really enjoy it! 🔗 Subscribe for more episodes 💥 Supporters of this Episode 🏅 MyProtein – Affordable, high-quality supplements to support your HYROX training.
