- Transitions: Benfer should aim to minimize the time spent in the Roxzone (transition zones) to optimize his overall race time. Practicing quick and efficient transitions during training sessions will help him save valuable time during the race.
- Strength Training: Benfer should continue incorporating strength training exercises into his routine to improve his overall strength and power. This will benefit him in segments such as the Farmers Carry, Sled Pull, and Burpees Broad Jump.
