Improvement Plan

Based on our analysis, here are the focus areas for improvement. The goal is to determine how quickly the athlete could improve on some stations and where is the path of least resistance to improve his time.

The percentile rank is the current position of the athlete compared to the competition. It goes from 0 to 100, where 0 is the best and 100 is the worst. It show the potential improvement for each station. The athlete should focus on the stations with the highest potential improvement and the biggest duration.

A big improvement in the Farmer's carry station will not be as impactful as a small improvement in the wall ball station for instance. Just click on a station to see how easy it will be to improve and how important it is to focus on it during training.

A word from RoxCoach - Your AI Powered Trainer

Overall Performance:

Jacob Symes demonstrated solid performance in the 2024 Birmingham HYROX event. His overall rank placed him in the top 49% of all athletes and within the top 54% of his age group. Especially noteworthy was his total running time, which was 03:27 faster than the average time. This indicates that Jacob has a strong runner's profile and his running ability is a clear strength. However, there is room for improvement in the strength-focused segments of the race, as well as in his pacing strategy.

His performance in the first segment, Running 1, was slower than the average, indicating that Jacob might have started too slow. However, he was able to adjust his pace by Running 2 and maintained an above-average speed for the rest of the running segments. This shows resilience and adaptability, but also highlights the need for a more effective pacing strategy from the onset to maximize performance.

Segments to Improve:

  • Sled Pull: This was Jacob's most challenging segment, with a time 02:34 slower than the average. Specific exercises to improve his sled pulling performance could include heavy rope pulls and sled drags to build strength and endurance. Working on his form, ensuring he maintains a low centre of gravity and uses his whole body, not just his arms, to pull the sled, could also help.
  • Sandbag Lunges: His time in this segment was 00:46 slower than the average. Incorporating more weighted lunges and squats into his routine could help increase his strength and endurance for this segment. Practicing lunges with a sandbag across his shoulders could also help him get used to the feel and balance of the exercise.
  • Burpees Broad Jump: Jacob's performance in this segment was 00:30 slower than the average. Plyometric exercises like box jumps, skipping rope, and of course, more burpees could help improve his explosiveness and overall time in this segment.
  • Farmers Carry: His time here was 00:32 slower than the average. Weighted carries (like kettlebell or dumbbell carries) can help improve grip strength, which is crucial for this segment. Adding grip-strengthening exercises to his routine, like farmers walks or dead hangs, could also help.

Race Strategies:

Considering Jacob's strong running ability, he should leverage this strength by maintaining a consistent pace from the start of the race, rather than starting too slow and needing to make up time in later segments. He should also work on his transition times to minimize rest periods between segments, which could further improve his overall time.

In strength-focused segments, Jacob should focus on maintaining proper form to maximize efficiency and prevent fatigue. For example, in the sled pull, using his whole body rather than just his arms could conserve energy and improve his time.

Given his slower performance in the Farmers Carry, Jacob could also benefit from incorporating compromised running scenarios into his training. This would involve running immediately after completing a strength exercise, like a weighted carry, to simulate the fatigue experienced during the race and improve his resilience and recovery.
