If you’ve caught the HYROX bug (or you’re deep in your training era), you already know, this isn’t just about working hard. It’s about working smart. That’s exactly why we’re rolling out a full series of HYROX Clinics at Backyard.

As our coaches continue racing and learning more about the sport, we’re bringing that experience back into how we program classes at Backyard.

Instead of focusing only on what movements we do, we’re focusing on the purpose of each workout week. This new rotation helps create a more structured approach to training and better prepares our community for the demands of HYROX.

It’s time to mix things up. Our Backyard March Madness Challenge is a four-week team competition designed to push you out of your routine, try new things, and rack up points along the way. Grab a partner, come up with a team name, and get ready to compete.

March is Women’s History Month a time to recognize the trailblazers, leaders, mothers, athletes, business owners, coaches, and everyday women whose impact shapes our communities in powerful ways. It’s a month to honor the past, celebrate the present, and actively build a stronger, more equitable future.

We’re so excited to share that Lauren & Laura’s Mom’s Strength Program is back for another round! This 8-week program (4-weeks isalso an option!) is designed to help you feel strong, supported, and confident, whether you’re preparing for birth or adjusting to life with your little one.

This is your checkpoint. Our HYROX Readiness Test is a performance-driven session designed to assess your engine, strength, pacing strategy, and mental grit under race-style pressure. You’ll move through key HYROX-inspired efforts with intention and coaching support, gaining clear data on where you thrive and where to sharpen.

We’ve got a massive crew headed to NYC HYROX and if you’ve felt the buzz in the gym lately…you’re not imagining it. This spring, we’re turning the volume up. In the lead-up to NYC HYROX, we will be rolling out a series of performance assessments, skill clinics, and race-specific training experiences designed to help you train smarter, compete stronger, and show up confident on race day.

As Black History Month comes to a close, we’re celebrating strength in all its forms, inside the gym and out in our community. 💪🏽

Backyard Squad! We have a few quick updates & important reminders we want everyone to see.

We’re giving away a free WHOOP Life band + SuperKnit Band in Dune, exclusively for Backyard monthly members. Because if anyone’s tracking strain correctly…it’s you.

Members-Only HYROX New York Early Access: Big news for Backyard members: exclusive early access to HYROX New York presale is live soon and demand is sky high.

This week’s Sunday Paper is packed with everything happening at Backyard from our Winter Warm-Up deals designed to keep you moving through the coldest stretch of the season, to our Galentine’s Lift that’s all about strong women, loud energy, and lifting heavy together.

And of course…it’s Boston Marathon season. Our squad is deep in training mode, logging miles, raising money, and repping Backyard every step of the way. We’re sharing how you can support them and how you can host your own fundraising event with us, too.

As always, this isn’t just about workouts. It’s about community, momentum, and showing up for something bigger.

Winter has brought the cold, but we always bring the heat. Winter Warmup sale is now LIVE. 4 classes + 2 sauna sessions for $100. Train. Recover. Repeat. Available now through February 11, 2026.

If you’ve been eyeing our HYROX offerings and wondering what’s the difference?—you’re not alone. Both classes are built around the same HYROX-style training principles, but each delivers a slightly different focus depending on how you like to train, race, and challenge yourself.

Here’s a breakdown to help you decide which one fits your goals best (spoiler: a lot of people do both 👀).

At Backyard, we talk a lot about showing up, not just for workouts, but for our people and our city. This past holiday season, we were proud to participate in the Holiday Helper Program alongside South Boston Neighborhood House (aka the Ollie House), and the impact made possible by this community is something we’re incredibly grateful for.

If you’ve ever walked into the gym wondering what you should do, how hard you should go, or whether it’s even working, you’re not alone. Decision fatigue is one of the biggest barriers to consistency, and consistency is where real results are built.

We’re so excited to share that Lauren & Laura’s Pre + Postpartum Strength Program is back in 2026! This 8-week program is designed to help you feel strong, supported, and confident—whether you’re preparing for birth or adjusting to life with your little one.

Every season inside Backyard has a rhythm..the early-morning grinders, the after-work crews, the long runs leading into marathon season, and the strength days that test exactly what you’re made of. But every so often, something arrives that shifts that rhythm in the best way. Something that invites you to think a little bigger, dig a little deeper, and recommit to the version of yourself you’ve been working toward.

Small Business Saturday is here, and we’re celebrating the best way we know how, with one day deals that help you recover smarter and train stronger.
