HYROX Level 2 Coach & World Championships Athlete
Ashley Badcock
HYROX Level 2 Coach. World Championships Athlete. Performance Coach.
The Story
Built From The Ground Up
BADLAB Performance brings together my experience as a competitive athlete, my coaching qualifications and a curiosity about what makes people perform at their best.
Competition is an important part of how I approach performance. It allows me to test training principles, experience the demands of racing firsthand and explore what separates good performance from great performance.
I've raced in Open and Pro Men's Singles, Open and Pro Men's Doubles, and Mixed Doubles across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and the United States. I've qualified multiple times for the HYROX World Championships, competed at the 2025 World Championships in Chicago and achieved podium finishes at the APAC Championships.
Those experiences shape my coaching, but practical experience is only part of the picture. I'm a certified HYROX Level 2 Coach, hold Certificates III and IV in Fitness, and have completed certificates in the Science of Exercise through the University of Colorado and Aligning Diet and Exercise through the National Academy of Sports Medicine in the US. I continue to develop my coaching through PACKT Coaching Skills and am a member of AUSactive.
My approach combines performance data, movement technique and an understanding of the person behind the training. It's about purposeful programming, adapting to how you respond and building progress you can sustain.
BADLAB Performance was born from a simple belief: whether you're preparing for your first event, chasing a podium or improving your everyday fitness, your goals deserve to be taken seriously.
The Philosophy
Data-Driven. Athlete-First.
Test & Measure
Every program starts with a baseline. We test your current capacity, identify limiters, and build from real data — not guesswork.
Train With Purpose
No junk miles. Every session has a specific adaptation target. We train the energy systems and movement patterns that HYROX demands.
Recover & Adapt
Performance is built in recovery. We monitor load, sleep, and readiness to ensure you're always progressing — never grinding yourself into the ground.
Compete Confidently
Race day is the celebration of your preparation. We build race strategy, mental frameworks, and competition-specific fitness so you peak when it counts.
