In HYROX, pacing is the name of the game. The pacing line shows where you hit the gas, tapped the brakes, or nailed it perfectly—guiding the way to a more balanced and dominant race strategy.
With the RoxCoach Simulation machine, you can see how your predicted finish time evolves as you power through your race. This next-level tech recalculates your estimated finish time after every run and every station. Crushing the sled pull? Gaining ground on the row? Or holding strong in the Wall Balls? RoxCoach tracks it all, giving you the inside scoop on where you shined and where there’s room to level up.
This chart breaks down the splits for every athlete in the division, giving you a clear look at how times are distributed across the pack.
Compare performance to the competition, spotting where they dominated and where there’s room to improve.
You’ll see how they stack up against the Top 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and beyond. Outliers are out—so the focus stays on the real competition.
Based on our analysis, here are the focus areas for improvement. The goal is to determine how quickly the athlete could improve on some stations and where is the path of least resistance to improve his time.
The percentile rank is the current position of the athlete compared to the competition. It goes from 0 to 100, where 0 is the best and 100 is the worst. It show the potential improvement for each station. The athlete should focus on the stations with the highest potential improvement and the biggest duration.
A big improvement in the Farmer's carry station will not be as impactful as a small improvement in the wall ball station for instance. Just click on a station to see how easy it will be to improve and how important it is to focus on it during training.

In terms of running, Alexander's total running time of 00:26:13 was 07:55 faster than the average. This indicates that he has a strong running profile and excels in this aspect of the race. His best running lap time of 00:03:56 further supports his strong running ability.
To address these areas, Alexander should consider the following training strategies and techniques:
1. Sled Pull: Alexander lost 01:04 compared to the average in this segment. To improve his performance, he should focus on building strength in his upper body and legs. Exercises such as deadlifts, squats, and lunges can help increase his strength and power. Additionally, practicing the sled pull technique and ensuring proper form and efficient pulling mechanics will contribute to faster times.
2. Running 3: Alexander lost 00:22 compared to the average in this running segment. To improve his running performance, he can incorporate interval training into his routine. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) sessions, such as sprint intervals and hill repeats, will help improve his speed and endurance. Endurance runs at a slightly faster pace can also contribute to better performance in this segment.
3. Sled Push: Alexander lost 00:20 compared to the average in this segment. To improve his sled push time, he should focus on building lower body strength and explosiveness. Exercises such as squats, lunges, and leg presses can help increase his leg strength. Plyometric exercises like box jumps and explosive push-ups can also improve his power and speed.
4. Best Lap, Running 1, and Running 2: Alexander lost time compared to the average in these running segments. To improve his running performance overall, he should continue to focus on building endurance and speed through interval training and consistent running practice. Incorporating tempo runs, fartlek training, and hill repeats will enhance his running ability and help him maintain a faster pace throughout the race.
In conclusion, Alexander Nicholas demonstrated exceptional performance in the 2020 Chicago Hyrox race. While his overall ranking and running performance were impressive, there are specific segments where he can focus on improvement. By implementing the training strategies and techniques mentioned above, Alexander can further enhance his strengths and address areas for improvement. With continued dedication and training, he has the potential to achieve even greater success in future races.
