About us

The official HYROX training club in Barcelona

PrepNation was built for one purpose: to make athletes measurably faster. Structured programming, limited group sizes and coaches who work with you rather than count reps from a distance.

Our approach

Most gyms sell access. We sell progress. That difference shapes everything: the size of the groups, the way sessions are programmed, and the fact that every block has a purpose you can name.

HYROX is the same race everywhere in the world, which makes preparation measurable. We use that: benchmarks, station splits and race simulations tell you what is improving instead of leaving you to guess.

About PrepNation — common questions

Where is PrepNation located?

Carrer de Lluís Antúnez 1, 08006 Barcelona, in the Gràcia district. We are open every day from 05:00 to 23:00.

What makes PrepNation different from a normal gym?

We are an official HYROX training club with a defined system rather than a catalogue of unrelated classes. Sessions follow four formats — Engine, Strength, Transition and Simulation — that build towards race performance.

Which languages do the coaches speak?

English, Spanish and German.

Do you accept Urban Sports Club, Wellhub or ClassPass?

Yes, PrepNation is a partner of all three, so you can book sessions through your existing membership.

Do I need to be fit to start?

No. Sessions are scaled to the individual, and the free first session includes an assessment so the coach can adapt the training to your level.

Your first session is free. Bring training shoes and water — we take care of the rest.
