Teerlink Fleur Hyrox Result

Overall Performance:

Fleur, you absolutely crushed it out there at the Frankfurt Hyrox event! Finishing with a time of 01:42:32 puts you in the top 78% of a competitive field, which is no small feat. Your strong start with an impressive pace in the first segment shows that you’ve got wheels when it counts! However, as the race progressed, some of your later running times began to slow down, indicating potential pacing challenges or fatigue. Given that your total running time is slower than average, you're more of a strength-oriented athlete right now, but that just means there’s room to grow your running endurance! Remember, “The only thing more contagious than a good attitude is a bad one.” Let’s focus on the good! 💪

Segments to Improve:

• Ski Erg: Your Ski Erg time was 00:05:42, which is 00:23 slower than average. This segment can be improved significantly as it sets the tone for your upper body endurance and overall cardiovascular fitness. Aim for 3-4 sessions a week focusing on high-intensity intervals (30 seconds on, 30 seconds off) to build power and stamina. Work on keeping your core tight to maximize the pull and minimize fatigue.
• Wall Balls: Clocking in at 00:07:16, that’s a whole 01:14 slower than average. Focus on your technique and rhythm. Try to break down the movement: 10 reps at a time with a slight rest, and gradually decrease that rest period. Incorporate drills like wall ball target practice to improve accuracy and consistency, and work on your squat depth to ensure you’re utilizing your legs effectively. Remember, “If you can dream it, you can achieve it!”
• Sled Push: Your sled push was 00:02:36, which is 00:31 faster than average, but it appears to be a challenging segment. To improve here, practice sled sprints at varying weights to build explosive strength. Focus on maintaining a low position and driving through your legs. If you feel your form faltering, remember, "It’s not about how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward."
• Total Running Time: At 00:54:22, this is slower than average by 02:25. Consider incorporating tempo runs into your training to build endurance. Gradually increase your long runs and include intervals to improve your speed. Analyze your pacing strategy; starting strong is great, but maintaining that momentum is key. As Goggins says, “You are stopping you, you are giving up instead of getting hard.”

Race Strategies:

• Pacing: Start strong but within a sustainable range. Your first run split was fantastic—try to maintain that energy throughout the race. Maybe hold back just a tad at the start to save some juice for those later segments.
• Transition Time: Your Roxzone time was 00:08:20, which is marginally faster than average. Still, there’s potential to shave off more time. Practice quick transitions during your training sessions. Set up mock transitions where you practice moving swiftly from one exercise to another, keeping your heart rate up.
• Technique Focus: During your workouts, incorporate drills that emphasize form, especially in high-rep exercises like wall balls and burpees. Consider videoing yourself to analyze your form and adjust accordingly. Remember, “Good form is the difference between winning and losing.”
• Nutrition & Hydration: Don’t underestimate the power of good fuel! Make sure you’re well-hydrated and have a balanced diet leading up to the race. Experiment with pre-race nutrition to find what works best for your energy levels.

Conclusion:

Fleur, you’ve got the heart of a lion and the spirit to match! Your performance at Frankfurt is a testament to your hard work and dedication. Embrace the areas for improvement and attack them with the same intensity you showed on race day. Remember, every challenge is an opportunity to grow, and every setback is just a setup for a comeback! Keep pushing those limits, and never forget: “It’s not about being the best. It’s about being better than you were yesterday.” Let's turn those weaknesses into strengths, and next time, let’s aim for that podium! Stay strong and keep smiling! 💥🏆 The Rox-Coach is here for you!
