Run Faster in HYROX with Shane Benzie - The Indiana Jones of Running

In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast, I’m joined by world-renowned movement coach and author of The Lost Art of Running, Shane Benzie (@shane.benzie).

Shane has worked with HYROX athletes, Olympians, tribal communities, and elite performers across seven continents - blending biomechanics, anthropology, and real-world experience to radically improve how we move.

We dive deep into how you can become a faster, more efficient, and more resilient athlete - without necessarily getting “fitter.” Whether you’re chasing HYROX PBs or just want to move better, this one’s packed with lightbulb moments.

We cover:

The major technique flaw 84% of runners are making
How to use “tripod feet” to improve stride, power, and stability
Why impact and airtime aren’t the enemies you think they are
Lessons from African training camps, extreme athletes, and military operatives
How desk posture affects run performance - and what to do about it
Plus: cadence, carbon shoes, curve theory, and elastic recoil

If you're interested in improving your running / performance in HYROX, this one is for you!
