Overall Performance

Asean Vue showcased an impressive performance in the 2024 Chicago Navy Pier HYROX race, finishing in the top 20% of all athletes, and top 22% in his age group. His overall time was 01:21:45, with a commendable total running time of 00:38:39, which was 02:27 faster than the average. His best running lap was timed at 00:04:41.

Asean's race profile leans more towards running, with strong finishes in all running segments. However, it appears that he started out too fast as evidenced by his 01:03 faster than average time in the first running segment. This initial burst of speed could have led to fatigue and slower performance in later segments.

Segments to Improve

• Rowing: Asean's rowing time was 02:43 slower than average, placing him in the 100th percentile rank. This suggests a need for improvement in his rowing technique and endurance. It is recommended to incorporate rowing drills in his training routine, focusing on form and pacing. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) on the rowing machine can also help improve speed and endurance.
• Roxzone: Asean's roxzone time was 01:40 slower than average, indicating slower transitions or rest periods. It is advisable to improve overall fitness and transition time. Incorporating circuit training with minimal rest between exercises can help trim down transition time. Practicing quick transitions between different exercises can also help improve this aspect.
• Burpees Broad Jump: This segment was 00:17 slower than average, suggesting a need to improve strength and agility. Plyometric exercises such as box jumps and jump squats can help enhance burpee broad jump performance. Additionally, practicing burpees with a focus on explosive power and correct form can lead to significant improvements.
• Wall Balls: Though Asean was 00:10 faster than average in this segment, there is still room for improvement. Wall ball exercises should be incorporated into his routine, focusing on form and power. Squat and throw strength can be improved with exercises like goblet squats and medicine ball slams.
• Sandbag Lunges: Asean was 00:08 faster than average in this segment, suggesting a well-balanced performance. However, to further improve, lunges with weights can be incorporated into his routine. Focusing on correct form, maintaining a steady pace, and gradually increasing the weight can help improve lunge performance.

Race Strategies

For better race performance, Asean should consider the following strategies:

• Focus on pacing: Starting out too fast can lead to premature fatigue and slower performance in later segments. Asean should aim for consistent pacing throughout the race.
• Improve transitions: Quick transitions between different exercises can significantly decrease overall time. Asean should practice moving swiftly between exercises during training.
• Strength training: As Asean's performance leans more towards running, incorporating more strength training can balance out his overall performance and improve his roxzone and strength-focused segments.
