Segments to Improve
- Sandbag Lunges: This segment was the most challenging for Michiel, with a time significantly slower than average. To improve, incorporate weighted lunges, focusing on proper form and balance. Incorporate progressive overload by gradually increasing the weight.
- Wall Balls: Michiel can benefit from wall ball drills focusing on explosive power. Engage in core strengthening exercises such as planks and Russian twists to enhance stability and control during the movement.
- Sled Pull: Enhance upper body strength and endurance with exercises like rows, pull-ups, and rope pulls. Practice sled pull techniques with varying weights to build consistency and strength.
- Burpees Broad Jump: Improve agility and explosiveness with plyometric exercises such as box jumps and squat jumps. Focus on cardio drills to maintain energy levels.
- Farmers Carry: Strengthen grip and core stability with exercises like deadlifts, shrugs, and heavy carries. Practice maintaining posture and pace during farmers carry drills.
Race Strategies
- Pacing: Given the strong start, Michiel should aim for a more balanced pace throughout the race. Implement interval training to build endurance and manage energy distribution effectively.
- Transition Efficiency: Focus on minimizing transition times in the Roxzone. Practice quick transitions between exercises in training to build muscle memory and efficiency.
- Recovery Techniques: Incorporate active recovery strategies such as dynamic stretching and foam rolling post-race to enhance muscle recovery and reduce fatigue during transitions.
- Compromised Running: Train for compromised running scenarios by running immediately after strength exercises. This will simulate race conditions and improve endurance under fatigue.
