Segments to Improve

1. Sled Pull: Maud's time of 00:07:26 was 01:36 slower than the average. To improve in this area, she should focus on building strength and power in her upper body and legs. Incorporating exercises such as deadlifts, pull-ups, and sled pulls in her training routine will help improve her performance in this segment.

2. Sandbag Lunges: Maud's time of 00:05:11 was 00:32 slower than the average. To enhance her performance in this segment, she should focus on improving her lower body strength and stability. Exercises such as squats, lunges, and step-ups can help strengthen her legs and improve her lunging technique. Additionally, practicing sandbag lunges during her training sessions will help her become more efficient in this movement.

3. Sled Push: Maud's time of 00:03:26 was 00:24 slower than the average. To improve her performance in this segment, she should work on increasing her overall fitness and power. Incorporating exercises like sled pushes, sprint intervals, and plyometric exercises will help improve her speed and power output during the sled push.

4. Rowing: Maud's time of 00:05:37 was 00:22 slower than the average. To enhance her rowing performance, she should focus on improving her technique and endurance. Incorporating rowing intervals and exercises that target the muscles used in rowing, such as bent-over rows and lat pulldowns, will help improve her rowing efficiency and overall performance.

5. Best Lap: Maud's best lap time was 00:04:57, indicating a strong running ability. However, it's important for her to maintain a consistent pace throughout the race to prevent fatigue. Incorporating interval training, tempo runs, and hill sprints into her training routine will help her improve her endurance and pacing skills.

6. Ski Erg: Maud's time of 00:05:13 was 00:12 slower than the average. To improve her performance on the Ski Erg, she should focus on building upper body strength and improving her technique.
