Overall Performance:
Charmaine Charamba showcased a commendable performance in the 2024 Manchester HYROX, finishing in the top 26% overall and top 33% in her age group. Her strength in specific exercises, notably the Sled Push, Sled Pull, Burpees Broad Jump, Farmers Carry, Sandbag Lunges, and Wall Balls, was evident, with times significantly faster than average. This suggests a strong competency in strength-focused segments. However, her total running time was 07:47 slower than average, indicating that running, particularly in the latter stages of the race, is an area requiring development. The initial running segment was faster than average, suggesting a potential strategy of starting too fast, which may have impacted her subsequent running performance. Charmaine appears to have a hybrid profile with a leaning towards strength, but with room to enhance her endurance and pacing strategy for running segments.
Segments to Improve:
-
Running Segments (Particularly 5, 6, 7): The most significant time losses were in the running portions later in the race. To improve, Charmaine should focus on enhancing her aerobic base and endurance. Incorporating long, slow distance runs, interval training (e.g., 400m repeats at race pace with equal rest), and tempo runs into her weekly training can increase her aerobic capacity and running efficiency. Special attention should be given to running form, ensuring she maintains a relaxed but powerful posture throughout the race.
-
Running Post-Strength Exercises: Fatigue from strength exercises appears to compromise running performance. Training that mimics the race format, integrating running intervals immediately after strength exercises (e.g., sled pushes followed by a 1km run at race pace), can help adapt her body to the demands of transitioning between strength and endurance components more efficiently.
Race Strategies:
-
Pacing: A more conservative start could help conserve energy for the later stages of the race. Charmaine should aim to run the first two running segments at a pace slightly slower than her perceived race pace, gradually increasing her speed as the race progresses. This negative split strategy could help manage her energy levels better.
-
Transitions (Roxzone): Although faster than average in transitions, focusing on minimizing rest time and practicing efficient movement between stations can further reduce overall time. Drills that simulate the transition process under fatigue, such as quick changes from running to lifting, can improve her agility and stamina in these crucial moments.
-
Strength Training Focus: Given her strength in the exercise segments, maintaining and slightly enhancing this strength aspect is important. However, integrating more functional strength training that also builds endurance, like circuit training with high repetitions and short rest intervals, could offer a balanced approach that benefits both strength and running performance.
By focusing on these areas, Charmaine has the potential to significantly improve her performance in future HYROX races, turning her running segments into strengths while further refining her already impressive strength abilities.
