@jake.dearden: The day before: - We need to carb up the day prior to the event. Lots of easy digestible carbs & water. Avoid spices and things that are going to upset your stomach. Breads, pasta, rice, cereals, sweets, fruit juices are all easy ways to get carbs in. - Make sure you stay mobile and stretch, especially after any long journeys travelling. - Be prepared. Have everything you're going to need on the day packed or laid out the night before. Clothing, food, drinks, ID etc. this is so you don't forget anything. - Read the athlete guide, here it will highlight the layout of the course and how many laps it is. On the day: - NOTHING NEW ON RACE DAY - no new shoes, no fancy breakfast. Whatever you wear/do in training, repeat for race day. This way it's trialled and tested to be successful. - Make sure you do a thorough warm up - raise the heart rate and do lots of dynamic stretches.. All whilst nasal breathing. This will help you perform and breathe better during the event. Mid race: - Don't set off too fast, pace yourself - If you start to cramp, water and electrolytes are your best friend. @Red Bull UK will be supplying drinks in the roxzone. - Enjoy it, you've paid to be there. Smiling and being in a good mood also makes you faster (if you don't believe me, read the science) Post event: make sure you grab a protein shake from @myprotein and then go out and celebrate, competing at a Hyrox is a HUGE achievement See you all there! #Hyrox #HyroxTips #fitnessmotivation #motivation
