2. Wall Balls: Michael can enhance his performance in this segment by increasing his upper body and core strength. He should incorporate exercises that target these areas, such as push-ups, pull-ups, planks, and medicine ball exercises. Additionally, practicing wall ball shots with proper form and technique will help him become more efficient in this movement.
3. Running 8, Running 5, Running 6, Running 7, Running 3, and Running 4: These segments indicate that Michael may need to work on his endurance and pacing during longer runs. Incorporating longer distance runs into his training program will help improve his stamina. Additionally, incorporating interval training and tempo runs can help him develop better pacing strategies during races.
