Lucero Aleshandro Hyrox Result

Overall Performance:

Aleshandro, you crushed it in London, finishing in the top 23% overall and top 32% in your age group! That’s no small feat out of 2,308 athletes. Your overall time of 01:15:29 reflects a solid effort, especially with a total running time that was 3:35 faster than average. You’ve got the runner's profile down, but there’s room for improvement in your strength segments. Your pacing started a bit slower in Running 1, which could have set the tone for the rest of the race. Let's fine-tune those segments to turn your performance from good to extraordinary! Remember, "You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream." – C.S. Lewis 💪

Segments to Improve:

Now, let’s dive into the segments that need some TLC:

• Wall Balls (00:06:51): This segment can be a game changer. Aim for explosive power! Focus on a full squat and a strong push through your heels to engage your core. Work on your endurance by incorporating high-rep wall ball workouts (3 sets of 15-20 reps) into your training. Consider pairing them with your runs to simulate race fatigue.
• Sled Push (00:03:28): Here’s where we need to put some serious muscle into it. Your sled push was a bit sluggish. Incorporate more heavy sled pushing in your training—try pushing heavier weights but for shorter distances to build strength and speed. Also, work on your driving technique; keep your body low and drive through your legs to generate power.
• Sled Pull (00:05:04): Similar to the sled push, focus on your technique here. Try different grips and body positions to find what works best for you. Include resistance band training to build the pulling muscles—think of it as a “pull” day, but with a Hyrox twist!
• Sandbag Lunges (00:04:22): Lunges can be brutal! Try incorporating weighted lunges into your training, but also focus on form. Ensure your knee doesn’t go beyond your toes. Add in some explosive lunges (jump lunges) to build power.
• Ski Erg (00:04:30): Your ski erg performance needs a boost. Practice your technique; make sure you’re using your legs and not just your arms. Try interval training on the ski erg—30 seconds max effort, followed by 30 seconds easy, repeated for 10 minutes. It’s a real burner!

Race Strategies:

During the race, consider these strategies:

• Pacing: Start conservatively in the first running segment to avoid burning out. Use the first 1K to find your rhythm before hitting your stride in the second running segment.
• Transitions: Your roxzone time was 00:06:17 (45 seconds slower than average). Focus on quick transitions. Practice transitioning between exercises in your training to find that groove. Think of it like a relay race—every second counts!
• Breathing: Maintain a steady breathing pattern during strength segments. Inhale as you lower and exhale with effort. This will keep you oxygenated and help maintain power.

Conclusion:

Aleshandro, you’ve shown that you can run like the wind, but let’s build that strength to match! Remember, “The only easy day was yesterday.” Keep pushing those limits, and don’t be afraid to embrace the grind. Every workout is a step closer to your goals—let’s make those wall balls sing! 💥

Stay strong, stay focused, and keep that competitive edge sharp. You’re on a path to greatness, and I can’t wait to see you crush those segments next time! Let's go! 🏆
