Pereyra Hernández Jorge David Hyrox Result

Overall Performance:

Jorge David Pereyra Hernández showed a strong performance in the 2024 Ciudad de Mexico Hyrox race, placing in the top 77% overall and the top 82% in his age group. His overall time was 01:54:22, which indicates a well-balanced race. However, considering his total running time of 00:56:39, which is 01:03 slower than average, Jorge appears to have a more strength-oriented profile rather than a runner profile.

His pace throughout the race was generally slower than average, particularly in the earlier running segments (Running 1 and Running 2), suggesting a potentially slow start. However, he was able to maintain a consistent pace in the later running segments (Running 3 to Running 8), indicating good endurance. This is further corroborated by his relatively slower Roxzone time of 00:10:30 (00:14 slower than average), suggesting that he may have taken more time for rest or transitions.

Segments to Improve:

• Run Total: As Jorge's total running time was slower than average, he might benefit from incorporating more running drills into his training. Interval training, which involves alternating between high-intensity and low-intensity running, could help improve his speed and endurance. Additionally, hill repeats, where he repeatedly runs up a steep hill and slowly jogs or walks down, could help build strength and power.
• Burpees Broad Jump: Jorge's time in this segment was slower than average, indicating a need for improvement. Incorporating plyometric exercises, such as box jumps and jump squats, could help increase his explosive power. He could also practice the burpees broad jump movement itself to improve his technique and efficiency.
• Sled Push: Jorge's slower time in this segment suggests a need for improved lower body strength and power. Exercises like squats, deadlifts, and lunges could help strengthen his lower body. Additionally, pushing a weighted sled or similar object in training could help him become more proficient in this movement.
• Roxzone: To improve his Roxzone time, Jorge could work on his overall fitness and transition efficiency. Incorporating circuit training, which involves performing a series of exercises with minimal rest in between, could help improve his fitness and ability to transition quickly between exercises.
• Farmers Carry: Jorge's slower time in this segment suggests a need for improved grip strength and overall fitness. Deadlifts and pull-ups could help strengthen his grip, while exercises like kettlebell swings and farmer's walks could help improve his overall fitness and ability to carry heavy weights over distance.

Race Strategies:

Jorge might benefit from starting the race at a faster pace, as his slower times in the earlier running segments suggest a slow start. He could also work on maintaining a consistent pace throughout the race to avoid fatigue in the later segments. Additionally, focusing on efficient transitions between exercises could help improve his Roxzone time. Lastly, practicing running under fatigued conditions, such as after strength exercises, could help prepare him for the demands of the race.
