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.

A word from RoxCoach - Your AI Powered Trainer
Overall Performance:
Brendan, first off, let’s give you a round of applause for finishing in the top 32% of your age group! That’s no small feat, especially in a competitive field of 216 athletes. With an overall time of 01:37:20 and a total running time that’s 02:11 faster than average, it’s clear you’ve got some serious running chops. Your pacing strategy shows that you started strong, but we need to be mindful of how you maintained that intensity through the later segments.
Your best running lap at 00:04:31 speaks volumes about your running ability, but it seems like your strength segments might be where the wheels started to wobble. You have a runner profile, but as every Hyrox athlete knows, strength is just as crucial as speed in this game. Let’s focus on refining those strength elements so you can maintain your pace across the board and not just on the run. Remember, "Push yourself because no one else is going to do it for you." 💥
Segments to Improve:
Burpees Broad Jump (00:10:00) - This segment was a significant time drain for you, placing you in the 97th percentile. To tackle this, focus on improving your explosive power and endurance. Incorporate high-intensity interval training (HIIT) that combines burpees with broad jumps. For example, do 10 burpees followed by 5 broad jumps, resting only as long as it takes to catch your breath before repeating. Aim for 3-5 rounds.
Sandbag Lunges (00:06:19) - Slower than average, these lunges are an area for growth. Focus on strength and stability. Try weighted lunges in your training, gradually increasing the weight as you progress. Incorporate front-loaded lunges with a barbell or kettlebell to mimic the sandbag's weight distribution. Also, work on your lunge form: keep your front knee behind your toes and engage your core.
Farmers Carry (00:02:44) - Being slower than average indicates a need for grip strength and core stability. Practice farmers carries with heavy kettlebells or dumbbells over a distance. Focus on keeping your shoulders back and your core engaged. Challenge yourself with timed carries, increasing the weight as you improve.
Additionally, we need to address your Roxzone time, which was considerably slower than average at 00:14:46. This suggests you may have taken extra time to transition between exercises, indicating a need to streamline your movements and improve your overall fitness. Consider circuit training that combines running and strength exercises to enhance your transition speed. Aim to reduce your rest times and increase your overall fitness through endurance and strength workouts.
Race Strategies:
Pacing: Start strong, but not too strong. Maintain a pace that allows you to keep your energy levels for the latter half of the race. Stay aware of your heart rate and exertion levels.
Transitions: Practice quick transitions in training. Set up a mock race where you transition from running to strength exercises and time yourself. The goal is to minimize downtime and keep moving.
Breathing Techniques: Focus on your breathing during strength segments to help maintain endurance and reduce fatigue. Controlled breathing can keep you calm and efficient.
Visualization: Before the race, visualize your performance. Picture yourself flying through each segment, maintaining your form, and executing strong transitions. “What the mind can conceive, it can achieve.”
Conclusion:
Brendan, you have a solid foundation as a runner, but it’s time to level up your strength game. Incorporating specific drills and focusing on those segments that slowed you down will not only enhance your overall performance but also build your confidence as you tackle your next Hyrox challenge. Remember, "The only way to achieve the impossible is to believe it is possible." Keep pushing the limits, and let’s turn those weaknesses into strengths! 💪 You’ve got this, and I’m right here with you, cheering you on every step of the way. Let’s crush it at the next race! - The Rox-Coach
