However, running was a challenge, with the Total Running Time being 06:04 slower than average, indicating a need for focus in this area. His pacing suggests an initial fast start, evident from the Running 1 segment, but difficulty maintaining this speed throughout. Dennis exhibits a hybrid profile but leans more toward strength than running.
Segments to Improve
Total Running Time: Dennis's running was consistently slower than average, particularly from Running 2 onwards. To improve:
Interval Training: Incorporate interval runs to enhance speed and endurance. For example, alternating between 400m sprints and 400m jogs for about 4-6 cycles.
Long-distance Runs: Add 1-2 long runs per week to build aerobic base and stamina, focusing on maintaining a steady pace.
Compromised Running Drills: After strength workouts, perform a short run to simulate race conditions and improve running efficiency post-exercise.
Wall Balls: Although above average, there’s room for improvement:
Technique Refinement: Focus on maintaining a smooth, efficient motion. Ensure proper squat depth and explosive power when throwing the ball.
Strength-Endurance Circuits: Combine wall balls with other exercises like squats and lunges to improve muscular endurance.
Burpees Broad Jump: Improve speed and efficiency:
Plyometric Training: Enhance explosive power through exercises like box jumps and jump squats.
Form Corrections: Focus on fluid transitions between burpees and jumps, reducing unnecessary movements.
Sled Pull: Slight improvement needed:
Technique: Practice maintaining low body position to maximize pulling power.
Strength-Conditioning: Include exercises like deadlifts and seated rows to build pulling strength.
Race Strategies
Pacing Strategy: Start at a manageable pace to conserve energy for the latter stages of the race. This will help maintain consistent running times.
Transition Efficiency: Focus on minimizing time spent in the Roxzone by practicing quick transitions between exercises during training.
