More Filipino celebrities and fitness enthusiasts are taking on the global fitness challenge Hyrox, with many countries across Asia emerging as a hotspot for participants. Hyrox is a high-intensity race that combines running with functional exercises, testing both endurance and strength across multiple stations—a mix of sprints, rowing, sled pushes, and more.


In November 2025, celebrity couples including Anne Curtis and Erwan Heussaff, Solenn Heussaff with Nico Bolzico, and Isabelle Daza with Adrien Semblat competed in the event, highlighting the growing appeal of Hyrox among stars who prioritize fitness. Filipino actors Kim Molina and Jerald Napoles also joined, pushing themselves through the grueling course while sharing the experience with fans.

The challenge has attracted international stars as well, such as Minho from K-pop group SHINee, proving that Hyrox is gaining traction not just as a competition, but as a lifestyle for fitness-minded individuals.

Videos from the event captured celebrities celebrating each milestone, showing that the race is as much about camaraderie and personal achievement as it is about competition. With more public figures embracing Hyrox, the sport is quickly becoming a new benchmark for fitness challenges in the Philippines and beyond.
