Bahadorvand Hamun Hyrox Result

Overall Performance:

Hamun, you crushed it out there in Frankfurt, finishing with a solid time of 01:08:36, placing you in the top 9% overall and within the top 11% of your age group. That’s no small feat! Your total running time of 34:05 is impressive, and it shows you have a runner's profile, executing the runs faster than average. However, let’s talk pacing: your first running segment was blazing at 3:29, which is a bit on the speedy side, leading to some slower segments later on. Keeping a steady pace will serve you better in the long run—literally! Now, let’s dive into the areas where you can elevate your game even further. 💪

Segments to Improve:

While you have a solid base, there are a few segments that could use some work to transform them into strengths:

• Ski Erg (00:04:45): Slower than average by 36 seconds, this segment can drain your energy quickly. Focus on maintaining a strong core and using your legs more effectively during the pull phase.
  • Drill: Perform 5x500m intervals on the Ski Erg, aiming for consistent pacing. Rest 2 minutes between intervals.
  • Technique: Engage your core, push through your legs, and pull the handles with your back, not just your arms.
• Burpees Broad Jump (00:04:31): You lost 43 seconds here. Optimize your transition and explosiveness.
  • Drill: Incorporate 3 sets of 10 burpees followed by broad jumps. Aim for quick transitions between the two.
  • Form Correction: Ensure you’re landing softly and using your legs to propel you forward while keeping your chest up.
• Sled Push (00:02:28): 5 seconds slower than average. Your technique can improve here significantly.
  • Drill: Practice pushing the sled with a focus on low, powerful pushes. Incorporate 4x20m pushes with 2 minutes rest between sets.
  • Technique: Keep your hips low, drive with your legs, and keep your arms straight to maintain full body engagement.
• Sled Pull (00:04:03): 15 seconds slower than average. Let's build that pulling power!
  • Drill: Implement 4x15m sled pulls focusing on a strong grip and maintaining a steady pace.
  • Technique: Keep your back straight and use your legs to help pull, not just your upper body.

Race Strategies:

Now, let’s talk strategy for your next race:

• Pacing: Start with a controlled pace during the first running segment. Remember, it’s not a sprint; it’s a marathon, or should I say, a Hyrox!
• Transitions: Your Roxzone was faster than average, but there’s always room for improvement. Work on your transition drills to make those shifts smoother and quicker. Think of it as the pit crew in a race; you want to minimize downtime!
• Mindset: Remember that every segment counts. Visualize each section of the race before you dive in and remind yourself that discomfort is temporary, but glory lasts forever. “Get comfortable being uncomfortable.” – David Goggins.

Conclusion:

Hamun, you’re already performing at a high level, but the goal is always to keep pushing those limits. Your running prowess sets you apart, but with some focused work on those strength segments, you can transform into an unstoppable force in the Hyrox arena. Remember, “We are all we need to be, but we can always be more.” Keep that fire burning and let’s get to work! 🏆💥
