Leva Fabio Hyrox Result

Overall Performance

Fabio Leva delivered a commendable performance in the 2024 Milan Hyrox event, achieving an overall rank within the top 76% of athletes. His total running time was significantly faster than average by 7 minutes and 13 seconds, indicating a strong runner profile. The standout running lap was Running 2, where he was 50 seconds faster than the average. However, he struggled with strength-based exercises such as the Sled Push, Farmers Carry, and Wall Balls, suggesting a need for balanced training focused on strength enhancement. Fabio's pacing strategy appeared effective, with faster times in the later running segments, indicating he didn't start too fast and maintained a consistent pace throughout the event.

Segments to Improve

• Sled Push: Fabio was 3 minutes and 3 seconds slower than average. To improve:
  • Drills: Incorporate heavy sled pushes and sled drags into workouts to build leg and core strength.
  • Exercises: Focus on leg press, squats, and deadlifts to enhance lower body strength.
  • Technique: Practice proper sled pushing form, keeping a low body position and using leg drive.
• Wall Balls: Fabio was 1 minute and 33 seconds slower than average. To improve:
  • Drills: Perform wall ball shots with varying weights to build endurance and power.
  • Exercises: Add thrusters and squat-to-press movements to your routine for strength and coordination.
  • Technique: Ensure proper squat depth and consistent release height for efficiency.
• Farmers Carry: Fabio was 1 minute and 14 seconds slower than average. To improve:
  • Drills: Practice farmers carries with heavier weights to improve grip strength and core stability.
  • Exercises: Incorporate dead hangs and wrist curls to enhance grip endurance.
  • Technique: Focus on maintaining an upright posture and steady pace during carries.
• Roxzone: Fabio spent 12 seconds longer than average in the roxzone. To improve:
  • Drills: Practice quick transitions between exercises to reduce downtime and improve overall fitness.
  • Exercises: High-intensity interval training (HIIT) to boost cardiovascular fitness and recovery time.
  • Technique: Develop a strategy for transitioning between exercises efficiently.

Race Strategies

• Balanced Pacing: Continue to maintain a steady pace throughout the race, leveraging strong running capabilities while managing energy expenditure during strength exercises.
• Efficient Transitions: Focus on minimizing time spent in the roxzone by planning and rehearsing transitions between segments to enhance overall race flow.
• Strength Integration: Consider incorporating compromised running drills, where running is performed immediately after strength exercises, to simulate race conditions and improve recovery.
• Strength-Endurance Training: Develop a training plan that balances running speed and strength endurance to address current weaknesses and enhance overall performance.
