Rich Kirby - From Professional footballer to World Record Hyrox Coach

We loved this chat with Rich Kirby, he is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about sport and strength and conditioning.

Rich started his career as a professional footballer, moving into a role as the Head of Strength and Conditioning at Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club.

Rich now runs his own Strength and Conditioning Business, with professional athletes from a variety of sports on his books, he has also transitioned into Hyrox. Caught up in the wave of the fastest growing fitness sport, Rich coaches Jake Williamson amongst others and leads from the front with his own incredible performances.

British Record Breaker as part of the male relay team, Rich not only knows how to train physically but what it takes mentally to achieve in Hyrox.

We hope you take as much from this episode as we did. To follow rich or get in touch about coaching, head to his instagram: @rich.kirby.elite.performance
