HYROX Performance Camp in Koh Samui with Pro Champion Hugo Hugemark

The camp is built around two training sessions a day, but the content changes shape as the week goes on. Wednesday starts gently — arrivals, a 5:30 pm academy briefing at the High Performance Center, then a 6:00 pm welcome HYROX session to get everyone moving and assessed. Thursday is technical: an 8:00 am Ski & Row masterclass, 9:00 am ski-run-row engine development, 3:00 pm an athletic development lecture in the conference room, and 4:00 pm a full HYROX session. Friday turns to race craft: 7:30 am race pace run development, 8:30 am a 90-minute sled work shop plus race skills, 3:00 pm elite race strategy and tips, 4:00 pm another HYROX session.

Saturday is the centrepiece. From 8:00 am to noon you run a race simulation — HYROX singles or doubles — in the High Performance Center. If you take the Elite Upgrade (+€150), you also get a Performance Lab slot: VO2 max testing in ml/kg/min, core temperature data, HR training zones in bpm, a 1-to-1 coach analysis and a written performance report. Sunday morning wraps with the academy relay championships from 8:00 to 9:00 am and an athlete Q&A and action review from 9:00 to 10:00 am, then departures.

The coaching is the reason people book this specific camp. Hugo Hugemark is a multiple HYROX PRO champion, a Ski-erg world record holder, and a champion across Driathlon, Triathlon and FURA. He has coached more than 5,000 athletes across multiple sports and is known for long-term athletic development rather than quick fixes. You get personal feedback and guidance throughout the camp, plus a personal assessment so you know exactly where you're starting from.

The resort itself is a big part of the week. Maraleina is one of Thailand's Official HYROX Training Destinations, sitting on over 120 rai (47 acres) of land on the southern side of Koh Samui in Bang Kao, surrounded by coconut groves, open fields and quiet villages. The 800 m² fitness centre has Technogym apparatus and a separate High Performance Center with Keiser machines. Outside the gym there's a sprint lane, two squash courts, a sports bar and café, a private beach with beach volleyball and beach tennis, a swimming pool, sauna and cold plunge pool, and 70 rooms. It's a 40-minute drive from Koh Samui International Airport (USM).
