Overall Performance

Nelson Shanks demonstrated a commendable performance at the 2024 Dublin HYROX race, finishing within the top 38% of all athletes and within the top 45% of his age group. He demonstrated particular strength in the Sled Push, Sled Pull and Roxzone segments, finishing faster than the average. However, his total running time was slower than average, indicating a need for improvement in running endurance and speed. Nelson started the race faster than average, but his pace slowed down in subsequent running segments, suggesting the need for more effective pacing strategies. His performance indicates that he has a stronger profile in the strength-based exercises compared to running.

Segments to Improve

  • Running: Nelson's total running time was slower than average, indicating a need to improve running speed and endurance. Regular interval training can help increase speed and cardiovascular fitness. Fartlek training, a combination of steady-state running with intervals of faster running, can improve endurance and pacing. Form correction exercises such as hill sprints and plyometric drills can help improve running mechanics and efficiency.
  • Burpees Broad Jump: Nelson's slower than average performance in this segment suggests a need to improve explosive strength and coordination. Plyometric exercises such as squat jumps, box jumps and power skips can help increase power and speed. Practicing burpees with a focus on form and rhythm can also improve performance in this segment.
  • Sandbag Lunges: Nelson's performance in this segment was slightly slower than average, indicating a need to improve lower body strength and stability. Strength training exercises such as lunges, squats and deadlifts can help build lower body strength. Functional training exercises such as farmer's walks and single-leg deadlifts can improve stability and balance.
  • Wall Balls: Although Nelson performed faster than average in this segment, there is still room for improvement. Wall ball exercises can be improved by focusing on form, particularly in the squat and throw. Strength training exercises for the legs, core and upper body can also improve performance in this segment.

Race Strategies

Effective pacing is crucial for optimal performance in a HYROX race. Nelson should focus on maintaining a steady pace through the running segments, rather than starting too fast and slowing down. This can be achieved through regular practice of pacing strategies in training. Transition times between exercises and running segments can also greatly affect overall race time. Nelson should practice quick transitions in training to minimize time spent in the roxzone. Additionally, focusing on proper form and technique in all exercises, particularly those identified as areas for improvement, can help reduce fatigue and improve efficiency during the race.
