A word from RoxCoach - Your AI Powered Trainer
Overall Performance:
Nelson Dos Santos, competing in the 40-44 age group, demonstrated a commendable performance in the 2024 Paris HYROX race. With an overall rank of 380 out of 386 athletes, he placed in the top 98% of all athletes and in the top 95% of his age group. His total running time was 38:18, which was 03:03 faster than the average competitor. This indicates that Dos Santos has a runner's profile and possesses a strong running ability, as reflected in the faster splits in all the running segments.
His overall pacing strategy was effective, with him starting strong in the first four running segments, completing them faster than the average competitor. However, there were segments where he lost time, specifically the strength-based exercises and transitions, indicating areas for improvement.
Segments to Improve:
- Wall Balls: This was the segment where Dos Santos lost the most time (01:52 slower than the 25th percentile). To improve in this area, he could incorporate more strength training into his routine, focussing on his quads, glutes and shoulders. Specific exercises could include squats, lunges, and overhead presses. Additionally, practising the actual wall ball exercise will help improve his technique and endurance.
- Sled Pull: Dos Santos was 01:40 slower in this segment. To improve his performance in sled pulls, he should focus on developing his lower body and core strength. Exercises like deadlifts, kettlebell swings, and weighted lunges can help. It's also important to practice the correct form for sled pulls to ensure efficiency and prevent injury.
- Burpees Broad Jump: This segment was another area where he lost considerable time (01:39 slower). To improve, Dos Santos should focus on plyometric exercises, such as box jumps and power skips, to build explosive strength. Additionally, practicing burpees and broad jumps separately and then combining them over time can help improve technique and speed.
- Roxzone: Dos Santos was slower during transitions (00:32 slower than average). To improve, he could practice transitioning between exercises to become more efficient and save time. This could be incorporated into his workout routines, simulating the transitions between running and strength exercises.
Race Strategies:
Based on his performance, Dos Santos should consider the following strategies for future races:
- Maintain his strong start in the running segments but ensure he doesn't exhaust his energy reserves too early on in the race.
- Try to maintain a steady pace during the strength exercises, focusing on maintaining proper form to maximise efficiency.
- Practice transitions between running and strength exercises to save time in the Roxzone.
- Consider incorporating more strength training in his routines to improve his performance in the strength-based exercises.
