HYROX & Functional Fitness

From Rehab to Race Ready.

Physical therapy, strength training, and testing for HYROX and functional fitness athletes. Building toward a race, deep in a training block, or coming back from an injury: we test where you are and build from there.

Who It’s For

  • After surgery: Rebuilding toward training and racing inside your surgeon's protocol.
  • A fresh injury: Something flared up mid-block? Start with an evaluation and a plan.
  • First-time & experienced racers: Building toward your first HYROX or chasing a faster finish.
  • Youth, high school & collegiate athletes: Functional fitness and strength training, with parents and coaches in the loop.
  • Adult & recreational athletes: Group classes, functional fitness, and the gym.
  • Lifelong athletes: Still training and racing, and planning to for years.

Movement Demands

  • Running between strength stations, again and again
  • Pushing, pulling, carrying, and lunging under fatigue
  • High-volume training blocks
  • Slowing down, turning, and transitioning when you're tired

How We Help

Rehab. Performance. Recovery.

Three areas of care, one plan. Most athletes retest about every 12 weeks, against their own baseline.

Leads every plan

Rehab

Rehab for heel, calf, knee, hip, back, or shoulder pain, with a plan back to full training blocks. Personalized care focused on recovery, strength and performance.

Performance

Strength, power, and running capacity for sleds, carries, lunges, and running under fatigue.

Recovery

Hands-on care such as dry needling, cupping, IASTM, manual therapy and mobility work such as assisted stretching at all three clinics, plus Normatec and localized cryotherapy at Lubbock and Colleyville.

Your Package

HYROX & Functional Package

Every plan starts with an evaluation. Here is what your package includes and an example of how a plan moves, one phase at a time.

What’s in your package

  • What we test firstBaseline jump, strength, and symmetry.
  • What we work onGraded running and deceleration progression; event-specific loading (push/pull, carries) as cleared.
  • Care that may be part of itManual therapy, dry needling, cupping, IASTM, strength training and localized cryotherapy*.
  • How we prove progressRe-test before returning to full event training, with a report that compares every result to your baseline.
  • What you leave withYour test report, a home program on paper, and updates to your coach or physician with your permission.

Visits are set by your progress, not a fixed number. *At Lubbock and Colleyville.

See how a plan moves

Example: Patellar tendon pain (patellar tendinopathy)A HYROX athlete with pain just below the kneecap during lunges, wall balls and jumps.

Phase 1 of 4

Settle it

Reduce tendon pain so you can load it.

What we do

Isometric quad holds with the knee mid-range, with training adjusted around the sore movements.

To move on

Pain of 3 out of 10 or less during strength exercise.

Phase 2 of 4

Build strength

Make the quads and tendon strong again.

What we do

Heavy leg press, split squats and knee extensions, progressed through a fuller range as pain allows.

To move on

Strength close to your other side, with minimal pain.

Phase 3 of 4

Load like race day

Train the tendon for jumping and station work.

What we do

Jumping and landing drills, then lunges, wall balls, sled work and running at race intensity.

To move on

Pain on the load test back to baseline within 24 hours.

Phase 4 of 4

Race build

Return to full training and racing.

What we do

Full training blocks, then competition, once full training feels good.

To move on

Retests about every 12 weeks across your race build.

Start with your evaluation

What we measure: Single-leg strength side to side, pain during a standard load test, and jump and landing tests.

An example only. Your evaluation sets your actual plan, and you move on when you pass each step, not by the calendar. Force plate and 1080 testing at Lubbock and Colleyville. Irving uses clinical strength and movement tests.

Colleyville and Irving accept insurance and cash pay. Lubbock is cash pay only for now. Each step, where it’s available and how to pay are on one page.

FAQ

HYROX & Functional Questions

Yes. Perform builds the strength, power, and running capacity behind sleds, carries, lunges, and running under fatigue, with retests about every 12 weeks to show what's improving.

No. Healthy athletes start with Assess to set a baseline, then keep building in Perform. If something hurts or you're coming back from surgery, Recover comes first. Insurance at Colleyville and Irving; cash pay at all three clinics.

Any of our three. Hands-on care, strength training, and clinical return-to-play testing are at Lubbock, Colleyville, and Irving. Force plate testing, Normatec, and localized cryotherapy are at Lubbock and Colleyville; Lubbock has the 1080 Quantum and Colleyville has the 1080 Sprint. Irving refers patients to Lubbock or Colleyville for force plate and 1080 testing.
