Shark Theory With Baylor Barbee

In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor shares lessons from his first Hyrox training session at Training Mates East Dallas. Unlike triathlons where you just run, bike, or swim, Hyrox mixes running with functional obstacles—sled pushes, burpees, wall balls—and quickly exposed his weak spots. But instead of being discouraged, Baylor saw it as a baseline test and a roadmap for growth. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why you need a litmus test to see where you’re really at with your goals. The power of following experts who can break goals into directly transferable skills. How having a clear plan and roadmap makes even huge goals manageable. The importance of surrounding yourself with positive, committed people who push you further. Quote of the Episode: "You might not be able to run a mile today, but you can take the next step—and that’s how you eventually get there."
