The Rise of Hyrox: How a Fitness Revolution Took Over the World

Re-release: A listener favourite from the Abnormal archives


Hyrox has exploded across the world — but how did it reach Asia?

In this conversation, Gary Wan, the man responsible for bringing Hyrox to Asia, joins us to share the story behind one of the fastest-growing fitness movements on the planet.

Gary talks about how he discovered Hyrox, the early struggles of launching it in a new region, and the cultural differences that shaped its growth. From athlete psychology to building community, this episode is a blueprint for anyone who’s ever tried to take an idea global.

Whether you’re a Hyrox competitor, a business founder, or just someone who loves pushing your limits, Gary’s story will fire you up.


🎧 This is a special re-release of one of our most popular early episodes — because some stories deserve to be heard twice.
