Athlete is a Hyrox gym based in Dubai run by Michael Logue, an incredible athlete himself. We were lucky enough to talk to his fiancee Dominique and one of the coaches at the gym, Bre, to find out a little more about the Hyrox community in the Middle East. Dom & Bre recently competed in Sharjah, together in the relay and separately in their own races - a solo for Dom and a mixed doubles for Bre. It was great to get their insight into Hyrox as a sport and how it has taken off in the Middle East. Athlete as a gym has a big focus on community, we dicuss how training with like minded people can really elevate your performance, how inclusive Hyrox is and that EVERYONE is an ‘athlete’. This episode is down to earth, relatable and a great representation of what Hyrox is all about. With another few races coming up in the Middle East we discuss training in the heat, the importance of fuelling and hydration and making fitness part of your lifestyle. There’s no doubt you’ll want to visit Dubai after listening to this episode, there’s some top tips on where to stay… and if you do visit then make sure to jump in on one of the sessions at Athlete - it’s a vibe!!
