- Ryan Kent on HYROX Training, Mental Toughness, and Life After Loss
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast, we chat with Ryan Kent (@dr0pthehammer) - one of HYROX’s most respected athletes and a long-time presence at the sharp end of the sport.
Ryan was the first athlete to break 60 minutes on US soil, a former North American Champion, and the 2023 Chicago Major winner - but this conversation goes far beyond race results.
We talk about:
✔️ How growing up with a professional bodybuilder and arm-wrestler for a dad shaped his mindset
✔️ His early years as a child running prodigy and what drove him to compete
✔️ The lessons he learned on The Selection — a brutal special-forces-style TV experiment
✔️ How he rebuilt confidence after losing his father and struggling for form
✔️ The impact of the late Rylan Schadegg, his doubles partner at the 2025 World Championships
It’s an honest and powerful chat with one of HYROX’s top athletes - full of perspective, resilience, and lessons in rediscovering your “why.”

1 hr 9 min - Tiago Lousa on HYROX Coaching, World Records, and Lessons from Kenya
In this episode we get to chat with Tiago Lousa. Tiago is one of the sharpest minds in HYROX — coach to Alex Roncevic and Zara Piergianni, an age group world record holder, former world champion, and respected head coach and gym owner.
We recorded this just after Hamburg, where Alex broke the Men’s Pro world record, so Tiago shares a fascinating inside look at that race, how his coaching relationship with Alex’s running coach works, and the changes that helped Alex reach his best-ever form.
In this episode, we cover:
✔️ Alex Roncevic’s world-record performance and the mindset behind it
✔️ How Tiago structures elite training and balances running and strength work
✔️ His coaching philosophy — from managing volume to developing durability
✔️ The lessons he took from training in Kenya on pacing, easy runs, and recovery
✔️ Where he believes HYROX needs to evolve
It’s an open, and insightful conversation with one of the sport’s most respected coaches and athletes.

1 hr 7 min - Inside the Mind of Elite HYROX Athlete Dylan Scott
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast we chat with Dylan Scott. Dylan has been a fixture at the elite level of HYROX for years and most recently finished 3rd in the Elite 15 at the 2025 World Championships. In this conversation we cover a lot. We spend time on the mental side of performance - from his “why,” to the growth that’s helped him stop getting in his own way, to his mindset on the start line, and the lessons he’s taken from both setbacks and podium finishes. We also dive into his training, the drama of Chicago World Championships, and the story behind his fiery “Do I have to remind you who I am?” Vegas win. It's always fun talking with Dylan - I think you’ll really enjoy it.

1 hr 7 min - 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!
