F15 HYROX Malta

HYROX is a fitness race that pairs running with eight demanding workout stations, and Hyrox Malta by CrossFit F15 is a gym in Malta built around training for it. The club trades as F15 and presents itself as the island's leading HYROX training operation, with coaching for people who have never raced as well as for athletes chasing faster times.

If you are visiting from the UK and want a proper session rather than a hotel treadmill, or you are staying longer and need a training home, it is worth a look. You will find it listed with other gyms in Malta in our directory.

What HYROX training involves

A HYROX race alternates running with stations, and the club trains every one of them: sled push, SkiErg, burpee broad jumps, rowing, farmers carry, sandbag lunges and wall balls, plus the running between them. Coaches teach the movements, then work on pacing, transitions and station efficiency, because the club's view is that HYROX takes strategy and endurance as well as raw strength.

Four class types are on offer: Baseline, Performance, Strength and Stamina. Baseline suits people starting out, while the others build power, engine and race fitness. Beyond technique, sessions aim to build mental toughness, a sense of community and a structured progression from the first class towards race day.

Who the classes suit

The programme is split into four groups of people. Beginners can start with no race experience, and the club is clear that you need no elite fitness, running background or race knowledge, only the willingness to turn up; every session is coached. Fitness enthusiasts get a challenge beyond ordinary gym workouts.

Competitors work on faster race times, better pacing and stronger stations, while hybrid athletes combine endurance, strength and engine development. If you work remotely from the island, our digital nomad guide for Malta explains how long stays work, and a club with a regular timetable can anchor your week.

The facility and the coaches

Unlike a standard gym, the facility is set up for HYROX performance. Equipment includes competition sleds, SkiErgs, RowErgs, sandbags, wall ball stations and farmers carry gear, together with a strength zone, recovery areas and space for running integration. The point is real HYROX equipment, not makeshift substitutes.

Two coaches are named on the team page, Lazar and Geri, both HYROX coaches. The club promotes a motivated team culture, scaled coaching for each level and a clear performance path, so a newcomer and a seasoned racer can train in the same building with different goals.

Recovery is part of the plan too. With dedicated recovery areas alongside the strength zone, members can cool down and stretch after a hard session instead of rushing out of the door. The website carries the class timetable and a booking step that lets you pick a time that suits you, after which the team guides you to the best starting point for your goals.

Locations, climate and planning a visit

HYROX Msida is the established hub, with a full schedule and coaching team. A second site is coming to Paola for athletes in the south, and there is a waitlist. Msida sits close to the capital, so it is easy to combine training with sightseeing in Valletta, and our things to do in Malta guide fills the rest of the day.
