Segments to Improve

1. Run Total: Khaled lost significant time in the running segments, particularly Running 4 and Running 8. To improve his running performance, he should incorporate interval training into his routine.

By focusing on improving his running speed and endurance, Khaled can decrease the time lost in these segments.

2. Sled Push: Khaled was 2 minutes and 48 seconds slower than the average in the Sled Push segment. To enhance his performance in this area, he should work on building strength and power in his lower body. Exercises such as squats, lunges, and deadlifts can help improve his pushing ability. Additionally, practicing proper sled pushing technique, including using his whole body to generate power and maintaining a low center of gravity, will also be beneficial.

3. Roxzone: Khaled spent 2 minutes and 30 seconds more in the roxzone than the average athlete. To improve this segment, he should focus on improving his overall fitness and minimizing transition time. Incorporating circuit training, plyometric exercises, and practicing quick transitions between exercises can help decrease the time spent in the roxzone.

4. Rowing: Khaled's rowing time was 1 minute and 12 seconds slower than the average. To improve his rowing performance, he should focus on building upper body and core strength.
