Starting a workout routine can feel like stepping into a world of endless possibilities. Many adults over 35 find themselves trying different exercises, classes, or activities without a clear plan. This approach, often called random training, may seem productive at first but can quietly undermine long-term progress. Understanding why this happens helps to make better choices that support health and fitness sustainably.

This post explains who should avoid a full HYROX, why the team event might be a smarter choice, and how to protect your health while still enjoying fitness.
