Davide Leone Hyrox Result

Overall Performance:

Leone, you put in a solid effort at the 2025 Turin Hyrox, finishing with an overall time of 01:38:50 and landing in the top 66% of your age group! That’s no small feat. Your total running time of 00:43:54 shows that you have a runner’s profile, finishing 4:23 faster than average. That said, let’s talk pacing. It looks like you started a bit slower during the first run segment (00:06:26), which is 01:21 slower than average. This could have impacted your momentum for the rest of the race. As you know, every second counts, especially when chasing those top spots! 💥

While you excelled in the running sections, your performance in strength-based exercises like the Sled Push and Sled Pull fell short of your running capabilities. This reveals that while you can move quickly on your feet, there’s room to build strength to match your speed. Remember, “Pain is just weakness leaving the body.” Embrace it and let’s turn those weaknesses into strengths!

Segments to Improve:

Now, let’s dive into the segments where you have the most potential to improve:

• Wall Balls (00:08:58): This segment was 01:03 slower than average. Wall balls require explosive power and endurance. Consider incorporating drills like weighted squats and medicine ball throws. Aim for 3 sets of 10-15 reps, focusing on form and explosiveness to build that power.
• Burpees Broad Jump (00:07:11): At 00:35 slower than average, the burpees need a boost. Try practicing burpee box jumps to enhance your explosive strength and transition speed. You can set a timer for 5 sets of 5 burpees followed by a broad jump, resting 1 minute in between each set.
• Sled Pull (00:06:26): This was 00:36 slower than average. To improve this, incorporate sled pulls in your training. Focus on maintaining a strong core and driving with your legs. Set a distance of 20 meters and aim for 5-6 sets, resting as needed to maintain good form.
• Sled Push (00:03:49): Being 00:28 slower than average, this is another area to refine. Include heavy sled pushes in your workouts. Aim for 5 rounds of 30 meters, focusing on driving with your legs and maintaining a steady pace. Rest 2-3 minutes between rounds.

Race Strategies:

During your next race, keep these strategies in mind:

• Pacing: Start the race with a more controlled pace. Think of it as a marathon, not a sprint. Use the first running segment to find your rhythm without exhausting yourself too early.
• Transition Efficiency: Your Roxzone was significantly slower than average by 02:41. Practice quick transitions in training by setting up your gear in a similar fashion to race day. Incorporate a drill where you focus on minimizing downtime between exercises.
• Strength Intervals: Incorporate strength intervals in your training sessions. This will not only improve your strength in specific segments but also enhance your endurance for the overall race.

Conclusion:

Leone, you have a solid foundation to build on, and your running capabilities are impressive! Now it’s about enhancing your strength segments and refining your pacing and transitions. Remember, “You are not just training your body; you are training your mind.” Embrace the grind, put in the work, and let’s turn those weaknesses into strengths. With a little more focus on those strength segments, you’ll be taking names at the next Hyrox event! 💪 Keep pushing the limits, and remember: “It’s not about how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.” Keep that fire alive, and let’s go crush it! - The Rox-Coach
