Overall Performance
Michael Griffiths delivered a strong performance in the 2024 Sydney Hyrox race, finishing in the top 37% overall and top 28% in his age group category. His overall time was 01:24:50. Despite a total running time that was 00:12 slower than average, he showcased a strong balance between strength and endurance exercises, with outstanding results in the Sled Push at the 5th percentile rank. However, the total running time suggests that Michael is more of a strength-oriented athlete, as he tends to lose time during running segments. His initial running segments (Running 1 to Running 4) indicate a relatively fast start, maintaining a pace faster than average initially but slowing down progressively, suggesting possible early fatigue.
Segments to Improve
Sandbag Lunges: This was one of the weakest segments, with a time of 00:06:06, which is 01:05 slower than average. To improve, Michael should focus on:
Strengthening the lower body through exercises such as lunges with weights, Bulgarian split squats, and single-leg deadlifts.
Enhancing core stability with planks, Russian twists, and hanging leg raises to maintain better form during lunges.
Improving endurance by including high-rep lunge drills and incorporating sandbag training in his routine to simulate the race conditions.
Burpees Broad Jump: With a time of 00:05:56, this segment was 00:47 slower than average. To improve, Michael should consider:
Boosting explosive power using plyometric exercises such as box jumps, squat jumps, and burpee variations.
Focusing on upper body strength through push-ups, bench presses, and overhead presses to enhance push-off in burpees.
Practicing technique by breaking down the burpee motion into components and refining each separately.
Wall Balls: The time here was 00:06:34, 00:12 slower than average. To improve, Michael can:
Build shoulder endurance with exercises like overhead presses, lateral raises, and face pulls.
Improve squat power through front squats and goblet squats, focusing on explosive upward movement.
Practice Wall Balls with lighter balls to perfect technique before gradually increasing weight.
Race Strategies
Pacing: Start at a steady pace rather than too fast to conserve energy for later stages. Aim to maintain a consistent pace close to the average rather than dropping significantly in later running segments.
Transition Efficiency: Improve transition times by practicing quick transitions between exercises during training sessions. This will reduce unnecessary rest periods and make the most of the Roxzone.
Compromised Running: Train running under fatigue by simulating race conditions in training sessions. For instance, perform a strength exercise followed immediately by a running segment to get used to the feeling of compromised running.
