How to share HYROX on Strava

Strava recognises HYROX as an activity, but the default post leaves out almost everything that makes a HYROX session interesting. This guide is the short, structured answer — what to do, how to do it, and the example you can copy.

Create your HYROX post

Step-by-step

1Log or edit your activity. Open Strava, record or upload the session, set the activity type to HYROX.
2Add HYROX-specific details. Use the title and description to capture finish time, division, station splits, race location — Strava has no native field for these.
3Generate a visual recap. Open UPPOST, pick the HYROX template, fill in the same fields, and download the image.
4Copy the title and caption into Strava. UPPOST writes both from your inputs — paste them into the Strava activity.
5Share the image. Attach the UPPOST recap as the Strava activity photo so the highlights are visible in the feed without anyone tapping in.

Example

Title: HYROX Pro · 1:12:48 · Amsterdam · top 15% Caption: New PB in Pro division. Wall balls were brutal. Onto the next race.

Common mistakes

Leaving the title as "Morning HYROX" — the feed shows that first, and it tells no story.
Putting finish time only in the description. Most people never tap in; it stays invisible.
Skipping the photo. Strava posts with photos get measurably more kudos and comments.
Using a generic graphic or template. It looks the same as everyone else and does not match HYROX-specific data.
Posting two days later. The Strava feed favours recency — same-day posts get more impressions.

FAQ

Does Strava have a HYROX activity type?

Yes — HYROX is one of the supported activity types on Strava. You can record it manually or upload it from a connected device or app.

Can I add finish time to a Strava HYROX activity?

Not as a structured field. Strava only takes free text in the title and description. That is why most HYROX athletes use a visual recap as the cover image.

Will photos help my HYROX post?

Yes. Strava activities with photos get measurably more engagement. A structured HYROX recap image works even better because it summarises the session at a glance.

Is UPPOST free for HYROX?

Your first HYROX post is free. After that, UPPOST has a small one-time unlock that covers every supported sport.
