Beginner To Unstoppable - How Home Workouts Became 6 Hybrid Races In One Year With Szidy
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What happens when a woman in midlife sees a post for a Hybrid Race on Instagram and thinks, "I could do that", despite never having trained that way before?
Meet Szidy. She went from home workouts with a few dumbbells to completing six hybrid fitness races in one year. This isn’t a story about being naturally athletic, it’s about signing up before you’re ready, learning as you go, and discovering just how strong you can become.
We talk about transitioning from home workouts to the gym, overcoming the intimidation of using unfamiliar gym equipment, nearly quitting mid-race, training on dark rainy mornings and how a knee injury became the catalyst for building unexpected strength. We also explore why doing hard things consistently is life changing.
If you’re curious about hybrid fitness (beyond Hyrox), or are ready to stop playing small, this episode is for you.
In this episode you’ll learn:
- How to move from home workouts into gym and hybrid training
