Improvement Plan

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.

A word from RoxCoach - Your AI Powered Trainer

Overall Performance:

Cross Martin and Cross Oliver, you both put in a commendable effort at the 2024 Birmingham Hyrox event, finishing with an overall time of 01:20:37, placing you in the top 83% of all athletes. That’s a solid achievement! Your total running time of 00:41:26 is impressive, showing that you have a strong runner profile—5:06 faster than the average. However, your pacing indicates that you may have started off a bit slower in the first running segment, which could have set the tone for the rest of the race.

While your running performance shines bright, your strength segments need some serious attention. The splits reflect that you excel in running; however, those sled pulls and wall balls? They need some TLC. The key here is to leverage your running strength while addressing those strength segments to create a more hybrid profile. Remember, "The only easy day was yesterday!" Keep pushing yourselves, fellas! đź’Ş

Segments to Improve:

Let’s dissect those segments where you're not hitting the mark. Here are the top areas that can transform from weaknesses into strengths:

  • Sled Pull (00:04:55, 97th Percentile): This is your most significant area for improvement. Focus on building the posterior chain (back, glutes, hamstrings) through:
    • Deadlifts: Start with conventional or sumo variations to target those muscles. Aim for 3-4 sets of 6-8 reps.
    • Rows: Incorporate bent-over rows and seated cable rows to improve your pulling strength. 3 sets of 10-12 reps should do the trick.
    • Sled Pull Drills: Practice pulling sleds with varying weights. Start light to perfect your form, and gradually increase the load. Try 4-5 sets of 20-30 meters.
  • Wall Balls (00:05:37, 95th Percentile): You're not just throwing a ball; you're building your engine. Here’s how to improve:
    • Technique Focus: Ensure you’re squatting deep and using your legs to drive the ball up. Practice with lighter weights to perfect your form.
    • Repetitions: Aim for 3-4 sets of 15-20 reps with a focus on speed and power, gradually increasing the weight as you improve.
  • Burpees Broad Jump (00:04:03, 88th Percentile): This segment should be a blast, but let’s make it faster:
    • Speed Drills: Incorporate short, explosive burpee sessions—try 5 sets of 5 burpees followed by a broad jump. Rest only long enough to catch your breath.
    • Interval Training: Use a tabata format. 20 seconds of burpees, 10 seconds rest, and repeat for 8 rounds. You’ll feel like a superhero afterward!
  • Sandbag Lunges (00:04:28, 89th Percentile): Stability and strength here are key:
    • Walking Lunges: Incorporate weighted walking lunges into your routine. Start with moderate weights for 3 sets of 10-15 reps per leg.
    • Form Focus: Ensure your knee doesn’t go beyond your toes; this will prevent injury and maximize strength development.
  • Sled Push (00:02:11, 90th Percentile): Let’s push those limits:
    • Push-Pull Circuit: Alternate between sled pushes and pulls in one workout. Start with lighter weights to build endurance, then go heavier. Aim for 5 pushes of 30 meters.
    • Leg Press: Incorporate leg press workouts for strength—3 sets of 10-15 reps will help you build the needed power.
  • Rowing (00:04:55, 88th Percentile): A strong core leads to better rowing:
    • Rowing Intervals: Perform 500m intervals with a rest of 1 minute between. Aim for 5-6 intervals, focusing on maintaining a steady pace.
    • Core Workouts: Planks, Russian twists, and hanging leg raises will enhance your core strength, translating into better rowing efficiency.
Race Strategies:

During the race, consider these strategies to enhance your performance:

  • Pacing: Start your first running segment at a comfortable pace. You don’t want to burn out early. Find a rhythm that allows you to maintain speed without sacrificing energy for the strength segments.
  • Transitions: Focus on minimizing your roxzone time. Practice transitioning efficiently between exercises. A quick sip of water and a mental reset can save crucial seconds.
  • Strength Segments: Embrace them! Approach each strength segment with a power mindset. Break them down into smaller goals—“I’ll just push this sled to the next marker.”
  • Breathing: Practice controlled breathing during exertion. It helps with endurance and keeps you calm under pressure. Remember, “It’s not about being the best. It’s about being better than you were yesterday.”
Conclusion:

Cross Martin and Cross Oliver, you’ve got the heart of champions! Remember, every setback is an opportunity to grow stronger. Embrace the grind, tighten up those weaknesses, and don’t forget to have fun while you’re at it. After all, what’s the point of suffering if you can’t enjoy it? Keep that fire burning! 💥

Let’s put in the work. As David Goggins says, “You are not going to find your limits, you are going to create them.” Now, go out there and crush it!

Yours in strength,

The Rox-Coach
