Overall Performance:
Kevin Goh's performance in the 2024 New York HYROX race places him in the top half of both his age group and the overall field, indicating a strong competitor with balanced abilities. His overall rank and rank in his age group suggest that Kevin has a good foundation across both strength and endurance disciplines. However, Kevin's total running time being 11 seconds slower than average, combined with his superior performance in strength-focused segments like the Ski Erg and Sled Pull, suggests he leans more towards a strength athlete than a pure runner. His pacing started off strong but slowed down in later running segments, indicating potential issues with stamina or pacing strategy.
Segments to Improve:
- Wall Balls: Kevin's performance in Wall Balls was significantly slower than average, indicating a need for improved muscular endurance and technique. Training Strategy: Incorporate high volume wall ball sets into workouts, focusing on maintaining a consistent rhythm and squat depth. Additionally, practicing wall balls at a fatigued state can mimic race conditions. Strength training focusing on the lower body and core, particularly squats and thrusters, will also help improve performance in this segment.
- Sandbag Lunges: Another area for improvement, the Sandbag Lunges, suggests lower body strength and endurance are limiting factors. Training Strategy: Increase leg strength through lunges, step-ups, and weighted squats. Include sandbag training in routines to get accustomed to the awkward loads and improve grip strength. Endurance can be enhanced by incorporating longer sets of lunges with lighter weights, gradually increasing weight over time.
- Burpees Broad Jump: Slower performance here indicates a need for improvement in explosive power and efficiency in burpees. Training Strategy: Focus on plyometric exercises such as box jumps and broad jumps to build explosive strength. Practice burpees with emphasis on minimizing ground contact time and efficient movement. Combining burpees with running in training can help adapt to transitioning between exercises during races.
- Farmer's Carry: Although not as significant as other segments, improvement is needed. Training Strategy: Incorporate grip strength exercises, such as dead hangs and farmer's walks with increasing distances and weights. Also, focus on core stability exercises to improve posture and efficiency during the carry.
Race Strategies:
- Pacing: Given Kevin's tendency to start strong but slow down, working on a more consistent pacing strategy will be crucial. Implementing interval training with a focus on maintaining a steady pace rather than starting too fast could help conserve energy for the entire race.
- Transitions (Roxzone): Although Kevin's transition times were better than average, there is always room for improvement. Practicing quick transitions between exercises and running can reduce overall time. This includes setting up and finishing exercises efficiently and getting back to running as quickly as possible.
- Endurance Training: To improve overall running time and stamina, incorporating longer runs with interval training can help build endurance. This should focus on running at or slightly above race pace to improve cardiovascular efficiency and stamina.
- Strength to Running Ratio: Given Kevin's strength bias, balancing training to include more running without neglecting strength training will be essential. Utilizing a training plan that evenly distributes focus between strength and endurance workouts will help improve his overall performance.
By addressing these areas with focused training and strategic adjustments, Kevin Goh can turn identified weaknesses into strengths and potentially improve his standing in future HYROX races.
