Overall Performance:
Julien Bensch's performance in the 2024 Paris HYROX race was commendable, finishing in the top 60% of all runners and the top 58% in his age group. His total running time was slower than average, indicating that his strength lies more in the exercise zones rather than running. Specifically, Julien demonstrated excellent performance in the early stages of the race, with his running and ski erg times being significantly faster than average. However, his performance waned in the later stages, particularly in the final two running segments where he was considerably slower than average. This suggests that Julien may have started the race too quickly, leading to fatigue in the latter stages.
Segments to Improve:
- Running: Julien's overall running time was slower than the average by 03:54. This suggests that improving his running endurance could lead to significant improvements in his overall performance. He should incorporate long-distance runs into his training routine, progressively increasing the distance over time. Additionally, interval training could help improve his speed and stamina. Examples of this could be sprinting for 30 seconds, then jogging for 60 seconds, repeated for a duration of 20-30 minutes.
- Sled Pull and Farmers Carry: These segments were also slower than the average, indicating areas for potential improvement. For the sled pull, Julien could consider strength training exercises such as deadlifts and squats to improve his lower body strength. For the farmer's carry, grip strength is crucial. Exercises such as wrist curls, reverse wrist curls, and pinch grip lifts could be beneficial.
Race Strategies:
Based on the analysis of Julien's HYROX race performance, the following strategies could be implemented for better performance in future races:
- Pacing: It appears that Julien started the race too fast, resulting in fatigue in the later stages. To prevent this, he should aim for a steady pace throughout the race. This can be practiced in training by using a heart rate monitor to ensure he stays within his aerobic zone.
- Exercise Zone Transition: Julien's roxzone time was faster than average, indicating he was efficient in transitioning between exercise zones. However, he could aim to further reduce this time by practicing quick transitions during training.
- Recovery: Considering his performance drop in the latter stages of the race, Julien should focus on recovery strategies such as proper nutrition and hydration during the race. Consuming a sports drink or a gel during the race could provide him with the necessary energy to maintain a steady performance throughout.
