If you’ve watched a HYROX race, you’ve probably seen athletes using the underarm hook technique…

But no one actually explains how to get into that position.


In this video, I break it down step-by-step so you can use it on race day.


We cover:


• What the underarm hook sled push is

• Why it’s more efficient than the standard push

• How to position your arms and shoulders correctly

• How to get your center of mass over the sled

• Why most people accidentally push DOWN instead of forward

• How to generate more power with your legs

• How to try this in warmups (even if you’ve never done it before)


This technique helps you:


✔ Move the sled faster

✔ Use your legs instead of just your arms

✔ Conserve energy during your race

✔ Improve your overall HYROX time


I personally tried this for the first time right before my race… and it made a huge difference.


If you’re racing soon, practice this before race day—or at least try it in the warmup area.
