Mohawk Valley Wellness is the Mohawk Valley's most experienced HYROX Training Club — with coaches who have competed, athletes who have finished, and the largest dedicated HYROX training floor in the region.
HYROX is a global fitness competition that combines running with 8 functional workout stations. Every race is the same format — 8km of running, 8 workouts — making it the ultimate test of endurance and strength that anyone can train for and compete in.
Unlike other fitness competitions, HYROX is designed for every fitness level. Whether you're chasing a podium finish or just want to cross the finish line, MVW's certified training program gets you there.
Start Training TodayCoach John Giordano doesn't just teach HYROX — he races it. He competed at HYROX Boston 2025, finishing in 1:08:26 and placing in the top 5% of his age group. When he coaches you, he's drawing from real race-floor experience.
Our members don't just train — they race. MVW athletes have toed the start line at official HYROX events and crossed finish lines. We've built a community of competitors who push each other every session.
We have the largest dedicated HYROX training area and equipment of any club in the Mohawk Valley — full-spec sleds, ski ergs, rowers, wall balls, sandbags, and indoor turf. Train exactly as you'll race.
Mohawk Valley Wellness is an officially certified HYROX Training Club. That means our programming, coaching, and facility meet HYROX's global standards — not a gym that just added a sled and called it training.


John Giordano is the Head Coach at Mohawk Valley Wellness and a CrossFit Level 1 certified trainer with years of experience coaching athletes of all levels. What sets John apart from every other coach in the area: he races.
At HYROX Boston 2025, John finished in 1:08:26 — placing in the top 5% of the Men 35-39 age group out of over 1,400 competitors. He knows what it takes to prepare for race day because he's been on that floor.
John's coaching philosophy is simple: train specifically, train smart, and show up on race day ready to perform. Every session at MVW is built around that principle.

No other gym in the Mohawk Valley has the dedicated HYROX training space and equipment that we do. Our facility is purpose-built for race-specific training — every station you'll face on race day, you've already trained on here.
"I never thought I could compete in a HYROX race. Coach John and the MVW program gave me the structure, the equipment, and the confidence to get to the start line — and cross the finish line."
"The training here is different. We're not just doing random workouts — every session is built around the race format. When I got to my first HYROX event, I felt completely prepared."
"Having a coach who has actually competed makes all the difference. John knows what race day feels like. His advice on pacing, strategy, and mental preparation is the real deal."
Come see why MVW is the Mohawk Valley's most experienced HYROX Training Club. Meet Coach John, experience the facility, and take the first step toward your first finish line.
No commitment. No pressure. Just your first step toward race day.
