View this post on Instagram How we're analyzing our Hyrox performanceWe tracked our heart rate data throughout the race, which gives us some data to back up what we intuitively felt like were our different strengths and weaknesses. A high average heart rate at a station means your cardiovascular system was working hard throughout.
