HYROX Hot Takes, Hostage Escapes, and Breathwork Breakthroughs – with Till Schenk
Rox Lyfe - The HYROX PodcastAbout this episode
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe Podcast, I’m joined by my HYROX livestream co-commentator and one of the sport’s most recognisable voices — Till Schenk (@tillschenklive). Till’s story is as wild as they come...Told he’d never do endurance sport again, he went on to complete Ironmans, bikepack solo through Africa, and escape a literal hostage situation in Senegal. Breathwork and cold exposure helped him rebuild his health — and in this episode he shares how those tools might help you too as an athlete.We also look back at the HYROX season just gone, the standout moments from Vegas to Hong Kong, and the athletes and stories that stuck with us — plus why Till’s stepping away from Ironman after 14 seasons.Expect honesty, laughs, lessons, and some seriously mad stories! 🔗 Subscribe for more episodes 💥 Supporters of this Episode 🏅 MyProtein – Affordable, high-quality supplements to support your HYROX training.
