Segments to Improve
- Sandbag Lunges (00:08:11): This segment was 03:22 slower than average, placing him at the 100th percentile. To improve:
- Technique: Focus on proper lunge form—maintain an upright torso and ensure knees do not extend past toes.
- Strength Training: Incorporate weighted lunges, Bulgarian split squats, and step-ups into your routine.
- Endurance Drills: Perform long sets of bodyweight lunges to build endurance without compromising form.
- Burpees Broad Jump (00:07:28): This was 02:37 slower than average. Improvement strategies include:
- Plyometric Training: Include box jumps and jump squats to improve explosive power.
- Burpee Efficiency: Practice high-rep burpee sets to enhance speed and efficiency.
- Form Correction: Focus on a quick transition from the floor to the jump, minimizing time spent in each phase.
- Wall Balls (00:07:19): The time was 01:14 slower than average. Consider:
- Squat-to-Press: Improve leg and shoulder endurance with squat-to-press exercises.

Race Strategies
- Pacing Strategy: Aim for a more consistent pace throughout the race. While a strong start can be beneficial, it's important to conserve energy for strength-based segments.
- Compromised Running Training: Simulate race conditions by performing running drills immediately after strength exercises to improve transition and manage fatigue.
- Transition Efficiency: Practice quick transitions between exercise zones to reduce time spent in the roxzone even further.
- Mental Conditioning: Develop a mental strategy to maintain focus and determination, especially during challenging segments.
