Amazfit, the smart wearable brand, has announced an expanded commitment to HYROX, the fitness racing event series. Amazfit is the official timekeeping partner of HYROX and is stepping up its involvement with four new athlete signings and enhanced training technology.
The 2025-26 HYROX season is now underway, with thousands of athletes completing their final training blocks ahead of a record 105 events taking place across the international community, which is a 30% increase from last year.
At the heart of Amazfit’s product development is the introduction of a new HYROX Training Mode, now available on the Balance 2 and T-Rex 3 Pro smartwatches. The new mode complements the existing Competition Format and Race Mode, giving users more control over their preparation.
Through the Zepp App, athletes can now import personalised training plans and track progress using interval techniques such as AMRAP, EMOM, and Tabata.
The new training mode was developed in close collaboration with HYROX athletes, including Hunter McIntyre, a HYROX Elite 15 competitor and Amazfit ambassador, who played an role in shaping the feature based on his own training needs.
Hunter McIntyre said “The products are great – they listen to me when I have input, and I get actionable insights that help drive my training.”
The latest expansion of the Amazfit athlete roster further reinforces the brand’s presence in the HYROX community. Rich Ryan (USA), Joanna Wietrzyk (Australia), Emilie Dahmen (Netherlands), and Linda Meier (Germany) are the new signings.
Joanna Wietrzyk has background in professional tennis, whilst Dahmen, Meier and Wietrzyk are established HYROX athletes in their own right, completing over 50 races between them.
Emilie Dahmen said “I hadn’t relied on a watch or performance data before, and reaching the HYROX Elite 15 without it was already a huge achievement. Now, Amazfit gives me the tools to train smarter, recover better, and truly compete at the highest level.”
The company adds that it continues to support athletes at all levels, providing the insights, tools, and performance features needed to go from gym floor to finish line.
