Aspria Arts-Loi, located in the heart of Brussels' European quarter, and Aspria Royal La Rasante, set in the greenery of Woluwe-Saint-Lambert, have officially become HYROX Training Club. This news should delight anyone looking for structured, stimulating and accessible training. Because behind the name HYROX lies one of the hottest disciplines in the fitness world at the moment.
What exactly is HYROX?
Born in Germany, HYROX is a hybrid training format that combines running (8 km) and functional exercises (8 successive events). Each session alternates cardiovascular and muscle-strengthening efforts, using simple but highly effective movements: rowing machine, lunges, wall balls, push and pull sledges, etc. All in a standardised format, accessible to everyone.
HYROX is aimed at a wide audience: those who want to get away from the routine of traditional gyms, runners looking for additional reinforcement, HIIT and functional training enthusiasts, former sportsmen and women who are retraining, motivated novices ready to learn in a supervised environment. In short: for anyone who likes to move intelligently and with intensity.
It's this combination of high standards and accessibility that has won over thousands of exercisers around the world. Alone, in a duo or in a team, there's something for everyone - and above all, a real sense of effort.
Why is this good news for Brussels?
With the arrival of HYROX in the Aspria Arts-Loi and Royal La Rasante clubs, Brussels joins the select circle of European cities to offer an official training infrastructure dedicated to this discipline. The clubs will provide certified equipment and offer specific sessions supervised by coaches trained in the method.
It's the ideal opportunity for the curious and fitness enthusiasts alike to discover or improve their knowledge of this training method in a structured, top-of-the-range environment.
"HYROX is both a physical and mental testing ground. Each session is a challenge, but also a source of satisfaction." - Florent Rivault, Senior Wellbeing Manager, Aspria Royal La Rasante
Premium clubs, inclusive approach
What sets HYROX apart is its inclusive philosophy. Unlike more extreme competition formats, HYROX is designed to be accessible. You can go at your own pace, adapt the intensity and choose your own format. The important thing is to progress - and to do so in a motivating environment.
Aspria clubs are the perfect embodiment of this state of mind: clubs renowned for their premium facilities, but also for their holistic approach to well-being. By adding the HYROX method, the clubs are expanding their sports and health offering with a discipline that has great potential, both physically and in terms of the community.
The arrival of HYROX is not limited to the addition of equipment or a few classes a week. It will be accompanied by regular HYROX sessions supervised by experts and internal challenges open to participants of all levels. Exclusive benefits will also be offered to all members wishing to take part in official competitions.
It's a whole new dynamic: sporting, friendly and focused on progress.
A new fitness experience
With the arrival of HYROX, Aspria confirms its positioning: offering demanding but accessible sports experiences in a privileged setting in the heart of the city.
Whether you're looking for a new personal goal or a stimulating group dynamic, HYROX could well become your next challenge.
