FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is CrossFit, and is it suitable for beginners?
CrossFit is a high-intensity fitness program incorporating elements from various sports and exercises. At Oxhouse, our workouts are scalable, making them suitable for all fitness levels, including beginners.
What is HYROX?
HYROX is a global fitness race that combines running and functional workouts. It’s the same format every time: 1km run followed by 1 functional movement, repeated 8 times. It’s designed to be a test of endurance, strength and mental grit - and it's for everyday athletes, not just elites.
​Do I need to be fit before starting CrossFit or HYROX?
Not at all! Our programs are designed to improve your fitness, regardless of your starting point.
Do I need to be a runner to do HYROX?
Nope. You’ll run a total of 8km across the event, broken into 1km chunks. We’ll help you build up your running gradually alongside strength and conditioning work, even if you’re not a natural runner.
​How do you accommodate individuals with existing injuries?​
We can adapt exercises and workouts to keep you progressing despite certain limitations. ​
Can I train for HYROX at Oxhouse even if I’m not doing CrossFit?
Yes! While CrossFit builds an amazing base for HYROX, we offer HYROX-focused sessions that are open to anyone looking to train specifically for the event, whether you’re a member or dropping in just for HYROX prep.
