Overview
What it is
METRIX is a UK indoor fitness competition with nightclub production — live DJs, club lighting and a recovery zone. Everyone races in pairs, and everyone races for exactly the same time: five 10-minute stations with 4-minute transitions, about 70 minutes wall to wall.
There is no finish line to chase — you bank as many metres and reps as you can at each station, and pairs are ranked per station. The best combined ranking wins.
Format
How the race works
- 5 stations × 10 minutes work, 4-minute transitions — every wave lasts the same ~70 minutes
- Station order: Ski Erg · Burpees Over Line · Row Erg · Bike Erg · Sled Push + Shuttle Runs
- Strict you-go-I-go: one partner works while the other rests, split however you like
- Scoring: pairs are ranked per station within their category; lowest total of ranks wins
