HYROX Outdoor Training Camp in Lanzarote: Run, Sled, SkiErg, Repeat

The week revolves around the official HYROX training club programme at Club La Santa. That programme includes several class types: HYROX Intro for newcomers, HYROX WOD (workout of the day), HYROX Green Team (a team-based session), and HYROX Race, which is a full race simulation. There's also the PFT (Physical Fitness Test), a benchmark workout that combines a 1000m run, 50 burpee broad jumps, 100 stationary lunges, a 1000m row, 30 hand-release push-ups and 100 wall balls. Your PFT time tells you which division to enter: 15–25 minutes puts you in HYROX PRO, 25–35 in HYROX Open, 30–40 in HYROX Doubles and 35–45 in HYROX Relay.

A typical day might start with a HYROX WOD session in the morning, using the outdoor rig and stations. You'll run intervals, then work through sled pushes and pulls, ski erg, rower, farmers carry, sandbag lunges and wall balls. Coaches watch your technique and adjust loads. Afternoons are free for the resort's other activities or for rest. Some evenings there are team sessions or a race simulation under lights.

What sets this apart from a standard fitness camp is the focus on one specific race format. You're not doing generic circuit training; every session maps directly to a HYROX station or run segment. The facility is outdoors, which means you're training in Lanzarote's climate — warm, often breezy, with sea air. It's a different feel from a stuffy gym. The resort also has a full weekly programme of classes (yoga, stretch, aqua fitness, and more) that you can use to balance the hard sessions.

Club La Santa is located in Tinajo on the west coast of Lanzarote. The resort is known for its sports facilities: Olympic pool, tennis courts, padel, a running track, a gym, group exercise studios, and direct access to the ocean for swimming and watersports. The HYROX training area is part of this setup. You'll be surrounded by other active people, from triathletes to families, but the HYROX crew tends to be a focused group training for a specific goal.

Coaching is provided by Club La Santa's fitness team, who are trained in the official HYROX methodology. They run the classes, correct form, and help you pace the race simulations. If you're training for an upcoming HYROX event, this is a practical way to get specific prep in a warm-weather location with all the equipment you need.
