Strategies

- Florian should focus on pacing himself properly throughout the race to avoid burnout. It's important for him to maintain a consistent pace and not start too fast, especially in segments where he excels, like running.
- Prioritizing proper technique and form in each segment is crucial to maximize efficiency and reduce the risk of injury.
- Florian should consider incorporating specific strength training exercises and drills that target his weaker segments, such as sled pull, sled push, farmers carry, and Ski Erg. These exercises should be included in his training routine at least 2-3 times a week.
- Implementing interval training and HIIT sessions can help improve Florian's overall fitness level and prepare him for the demands of the race.
- Florian should also focus on improving his transition time between exercises to minimize time spent in the roxzone. Practicing quick and efficient transitions during training sessions can help improve his overall race performance.
