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:
Middleton Nigel, you crushed that Hyrox race! With a solid finish time of 01:27:05, you finished in the top 15% of your age group, placing 20th out of 128 athletes. That’s no small feat! Your pacing was quite strategic, but it seems you may have started off just a touch too quick on that first run. With a total running time of 00:44:58, you were 01:40 slower than average, indicating that you might be leaning a bit more towards a strength profile rather than a pure runner’s profile. You’ve got a strong foundation, but let’s harness that power and work on your running efficiency to elevate your game even further. Remember, “You will never know your limits until you push yourself to them.”
Segments to Improve:
Now, let’s pinpoint the segments where you can really turbocharge your performance:
Running 3 (00:05:37): This segment was notably slower, so let’s focus on your endurance. Incorporate interval training into your weekly routine. Try 5 x 1 km runs at a pace faster than your current race pace, with 3 minutes of rest in between. This will build your speed and overall aerobic capacity.
Farmers Carry (00:02:27): You were 00:14 slower than average here. Try adding a farmer's carry into your training sessions. Use weights that challenge you, and aim for longer distances. Focus on maintaining good posture and core engagement. Gradually increase the weights to improve your grip strength and endurance.
Wall Balls (00:06:39): This segment saw you just a tad slower than average. To improve, work on your explosive power with squat to overhead press drills. Aim for 3 sets of 10 reps, focusing on a quick transition from the squat to throwing the ball. Remember, “You can’t climb the ladder of success with your hands in your pockets.”
Roxzone (00:05:44): You spent 01:20 faster than average in transition, which is great, but we can still tighten that up. To improve your transitions, practice moving quickly between exercises in your training. Create flow drills where you transition from one movement to another with minimal rest, simulating race conditions.
Race Strategies:
Here are some strategies to implement during your next race:
Pacing: Start your runs conservatively. Aim for a consistent pace that you can maintain throughout all running segments, especially the first two. Avoid the temptation to sprint out of the gate; it's a marathon, not a sprint!
Breathing Techniques: During high-intensity segments like the Ski Erg and Sled Push, focus on controlled breathing. Inhale for 3 counts and exhale for 2. This can help you maintain your energy and keep your heart rate in check.
Mindset: Stay positive and visualize your success. When the going gets tough, remember this: “It’s not about the destination, it’s about the journey.” Keep pushing yourself, and don’t let any negative thoughts creep in!
Conclusion:
Nigel, you’ve got the grit and determination that makes champions. With some focused training on your running and specific segments, you’ll be ready to smash your next race. Just remember, even the best athletes have room for improvement. As David Goggins says, “You are not made to be a soft, weak person. You are made to be a beast!” Embrace the grind, and let’s turn those weaknesses into strengths. Keep pushing, and I’ll be here every step of the way, cheering you on as your Rox-Coach! 💪🏆
