Sartori Pietro Giuseppe Hyrox Result

Overall Performance

Pietro Giuseppe Sartori delivered a commendable performance at the 2024 Milan Hyrox event, ranking in the top 60% overall and in the top 50% within his age group. Notably, his total running time was 2:38 faster than the average, indicating a strong running profile. However, Pietro's pacing strategy suggests a conservative start, as he began slower than average in the initial running segment but gained momentum and finished with a remarkably fast final running lap. His performance highlights a hybrid athletic profile with a notable advantage in running.

Segments to Improve

• Roxzone (00:09:22, 01:38 slower than average):

  Improving transition efficiency can significantly enhance overall performance. Focus on drills that simulate race conditions to practice swift transitions. Incorporate high-intensity interval training (HIIT) with abrupt changes between exercises to condition the body for quicker adjustments.

  Suggested Exercises: Transition drills with burpees to running, time-based circuit training.
• Sandbag Lunges (00:07:24, 01:43 slower than average):

  Work on strength and endurance for lunges. Focus on building lower body strength and improving technique to enhance speed and efficiency.

  Suggested Exercises: Weighted walking lunges, single-leg squats, plyometric lunges.
• Burpees Broad Jump (00:06:12, 00:10 slower than average):

  Improve explosive power and endurance. Emphasize proper form to maximize efficiency and speed.

  Suggested Exercises: Plyometric drills, burpee intervals, jump squats.
• Wall Balls (00:07:03, 00:19 faster than average but with potential for more improvement):

  Focus on form and endurance to enhance performance. Ensure a steady rhythm and efficient use of energy.

  Suggested Exercises: Wall ball throws with varied weights, overhead squats, core stability exercises.
• Sled Push (00:03:28, 00:11 slower than average):

  Develop strength and technique for an effective push. Focus on lower body strength and pushing mechanics.

  Suggested Exercises: Sled pushes with varied weights, leg press, and resistance band drills.
• Rowing (00:05:08, 00:09 slower than average):

  Enhance rowing technique and cardiovascular endurance. Focus on maintaining a steady pace and efficient stroke.

  Suggested Exercises: Interval rowing sessions, rowing machine drills, and core strengthening exercises.

Race Strategies

• Pacing Strategy: Start at a moderate pace to conserve energy for the latter part of the race. Gradually increase speed, particularly in running segments where Pietro has shown strength.
• Transition Efficiency: Practice quick transitions between different exercise zones to minimize time lost in the roxzone. Focus on maintaining momentum and reducing unnecessary breaks.
• Compromised Running: Train for scenarios where running follows high-intensity exercises like lunges and burpees. This will help in maintaining a consistent running pace despite fatigue.
• Strength and Conditioning: Incorporate strength training to balance the strong running profile and improve performance in strength-intensive segments such as sled push and sandbag lunges.
