Segments to Improve
Wall Balls: This segment posed a significant challenge, as Ellis was 02:44 slower than the average. To improve, he should incorporate exercises like kettlebell swings and thrusters into his training regimen to build strength and endurance. Practicing wall balls under fatigue can also help improve performance under race conditions.
Roxzone: Ellis's Roxzone time was slower than average, which could be due to longer rest periods or slower transitions. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) can help boost overall fitness, while practicing transitions can enhance efficiency and reduce time spent in this segment.
Sandbag Lunges: Ellis's performance in this segment was slower than average. Incorporating more strength training, specifically targeting the glutes and quads, can help improve his lunges. Exercises like barbell lunges and goblet squats can be particularly beneficial.
Sled Push and Pull: These segments were also slower than average. Focused strength and power training, using exercises like deadlifts and box jumps, can help improve performance here. Practicing sled pushes and pulls can also help enhance form and efficiency.
Farmers Carry: Though Ellis was only slightly slower than average in this segment, there is room for improvement. Strength training targeting the shoulders, back, and grip can help boost performance. Practical drills carrying heavy kettlebells or dumbbells can also be beneficial.
Race Strategies
Ellis shows strong potential in running, so he should leverage this strength by maintaining a brisk pace from the outset but saving enough energy for the challenging strength-based segments in the latter half of the race. Practicing running after performing strength exercises could help prepare him for the race conditions.
For the strength-based segments, focusing on form and efficiency can help reduce fatigue and improve performance. Practicing these exercises under fatigue, mimicking the race conditions, can also be beneficial.
Finally, Ellis should work on improving his transitions to reduce time spent in the Roxzone. Practicing swift and efficient transitions between exercises can help optimize his race performance.
