Oriam is excited to announce a game-changing addition to our fitness offerings: a partnership with Hyrox, the global fitness phenomenon that’s redefining how we train for endurance and strength. Starting in February 2025, we will launch Hyrox-inspired fitness classes—an engaging and challenging way to boost your fitness, build strength, and embrace the thrill of functional fitness training. 

What Is Hyrox? 

Hyrox is the ultimate fitness race, combining 1 km runs with functional workout stations like sled pushes, Ski Erg, burpee broad jumps, and wall balls. Designed for all fitness levels, it’s a sport where you can compete against yourself, your peers, or even globally, as every event follows the same format. 

At Oriam, we aim to deliver fitness solutions that cater to our diverse community of Heriot-Watt students, staff, and local members. Hyrox is a natural fit bringing together the structure, variety, and community spirit that define Oriam’s approach to health and fitness. 

What Can Participants Expect? 

Our Hyrox-style classes are designed to provide a full-body workout that builds strength, stamina, and resilience. Here’s what makes these classes unique: 

• Improved Fitness Levels: Hyrox combines cardio and functional strength, offering a workout that challenges the whole body. 
• Goal-Oriented Training: Whether you’re preparing for a Hyrox event or just looking to elevate your fitness routine, these classes provide structured and purposeful sessions. 
• Supportive Community: Hyrox is as much about teamwork and camaraderie as it is about personal achievement. 

Hyrox Classes - Save the Date 

Our Hyrox-affiliated classes will officially launch in February 2025, with spaces expected to fill quickly. Keep an eye on our website and social media channels for updates on class schedules, pricing, and how to sign up. 

This is your chance to join a global movement, challenge your fitness limits, and be part of something truly inspiring. Oriam and Hyrox—together, we’re stronger. 

Hyrox Class - Access and Pricing 

Hyrox classes will be available at an additional cost, but Oriam members will benefit from discounted rates, making it easier than ever to participate. Non-members are also welcome, offering an inclusive opportunity to experience Oriam’s facilities while taking on this exciting fitness challenge. 

Why Do Hyrox at Oriam? 

As Scotland’s National Performance Centre, Oriam is committed to providing world-class fitness experiences for all. Hyrox aligns perfectly with our mission, offering a dynamic, goal-driven, and community-focused training format that appeals to everyone—from gym newcomers to seasoned athletes. 

Our Fitness Manager, a Hyrox competitor in doubles females and mixed doubles categories, has brought her expertise and passion for the sport to these classes, ensuring that each session reflects the true spirit of Hyrox. 

We can’t wait to see you in class, ready to push sleds, smash Ski Erg goals, and conquer wall balls like never before!
