Hybrid training in Amsterdam East: strength and cardio in one class
Hybrid training means you train strength and endurance together, in one plan. At CrossFit Zeeburg in Amsterdam East, you do that in our Hybrid Endurance class. It runs four times a week, always with a coach. You don't need to be fit to start. You do need to be willing to train.
Maybe you've tried it before. A few weeks of running, a few weeks in the gym, and then the sofa wins again. That's not on you. Building two things at once on your own is honestly pretty hard. So we sort it out for you.
You don't need to know how to start. You just need to show up.
Your Strong Start: 28 days, 12 coached sessions, €99.

What is hybrid training?
Hybrid training, or *hybride training* as the Dutch call it, is combining strength with endurance. You don't pick between getting strong and lasting longer. You do both. So you can lift a heavy bag and then run up the stairs without being wrecked.
To be honest, that's always been the idea behind CrossFit. You're only really fit when you're good across the board: strength, stamina, flexibility, balance and coordination. Being great at one thing and weak at the rest isn't the goal. Curious how that works? Have a read of what CrossFit actually is.
HYROX is a race that fits this nicely. But hybrid training is bigger than one event. Even if you never stand on a start line, you'll feel the difference every day.
Hybrid Endurance: what a class looks like
The name says it all. Hybrid: strength and cardio. Endurance: keeping going. In this class, the two come together.
You walk in, the workout is ready and a coach explains what we're doing. During the class, the coach watches and adjusts where needed. You don't have to write your own programme or work out which weight to grab. You just show up and we handle the rest.
You train with others, so there's always someone next to you pushing through the same work. That makes it a lot easier to keep going on the days you'd rather stay home.
Every workout is scaled. Not pointlessly easy, but right for you and safe. You decide how hard you go.
Training for a HYROX event? Here's how to prepare
Let me be straight with you: we're not an official HYROX gym. If you're searching for a HYROX gym or HYROX training in Amsterdam, what you really want is to arrive at the start line well prepared. That's where we can help. Our Hybrid Endurance classes prepare you really well for a HYROX event.
HYROX is a fitness race. You switch between running and stations like rowing, the sled push (pushing a heavy sled forward) and wall balls (throwing a ball at a target from a squat). The weights differ per category and per season. Always check the official rulebook for those. Want the full picture first? Read what HYROX is.
My advice: build the base first. Mix Hybrid Endurance with regular classes, so you get stronger and your technique is solid. How to do that step by step is in HYROX training: how to train for your first race.
Read enough? Come and train with us.
In 28 days you train 12 times with a coach who keeps an eye on you, at our box in Amsterdam East. You don't need to be fit to start.

Timetable and levels
Hybrid Endurance is on the timetable four times a week:
| Day | Time |
|---|---|
| Tuesday | 18:00–19:00 |
| Wednesday | 13:00–14:00 |
| Wednesday | 20:00–21:00 |
| Sunday | 12:00–13:00 |
On top of that, there's a WOD (the workout of the day) every day, plus Weightlifting, StrongLifts and Gymnastics classes. That way you can spread strength and cardio nicely across your week. You'll find every class time on the schedule. Changes and open spots show up live in Sportbit.
Never trained with a barbell? No problem. You start at your level. If you've been training for years, you get a tougher version. You train together, but everyone at their own level.
Got an injury or ongoing complaints? If you're unsure, check with your doctor or physio first. Then let us know, and the coach will adapt the exercises. We don't take over the role of your doctor or physio.

Frequently asked questions
What is a hybrid gym?
A place where you train strength and cardio together, instead of only weights or only cardio. With us, you do that in Hybrid Endurance and in the regular classes, always with a coach.
Do I need to know CrossFit to do HYROX?
No. You don't need any experience. A solid base in strength, fitness and technique does help. You build that step by step, and every exercise is scaled to your level.
What does HIIT stand for and how often should you do it?
HIIT stands for high-intensity interval training: short, hard blocks with rest in between. My advice: don't go all out every day. Mix hard sessions with easier days, so you can keep it up.
Can you start hybrid training after 40?
Yes, absolutely. You start at your level and the coach adapts the exercises. If you're 60 or older, we also have a separate class: CrossFit 60+.
