Based on our analysis, here are the focus areas for improvement. The goal is to determine how quickly the athlete could improve on some stations and where is the path of least resistance to improve his time.

The percentile rank is the current position of the athlete compared to the competition. It goes from 0 to 100, where 0 is the best and 100 is the worst. It show the potential improvement for each station. The athlete should focus on the stations with the highest potential improvement and the biggest duration.

A big improvement in the Farmer's carry station will not be as impactful as a small improvement in the wall ball station for instance. Just click on a station to see how easy it will be to improve and how important it is to focus on it during training.

Overall Performance

Ben May displayed a solid performance in the 2024 Birmingham HYROX competition, ranking in the top 17% of all athletes and the top 16% in his age group (40-44). Notably, his total running time was 02:24 faster than the average time, marking him as a strong runner. His best running lap time was an impressive 00:04:08.

Ben showcased a balanced performance in both the running and strength segments of the race, however, his strength in running was more pronounced. His pacing could use some improvement, as he started slower than average in the first running segment, but he managed to recover and maintain a faster pace in the subsequent running segments.

Segments to Improve

  • Wall Balls: This segment was one of Ben's most challenging, finishing 01:14 slower than the average. To improve performance here, Ben could incorporate wall ball-specific drills into his training. These might include squat and toss drills, focusing on maintaining a deep squat and using the hips to power the throw. High-repetition sets will build endurance.
  • Roxzone: This segment, reflecting transition and rest times, was also slower than average. To enhance performance, Ben should focus on improving his overall fitness and transition efficiency. Incorporating High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) into his routine can help increase endurance and recovery rates, reducing rest times. Practice transitioning between different exercises can also help to minimize time spent in this segment.
  • Burpees Broad Jump: Ben could benefit from incorporating explosive strength training, specifically focusing on plyometric exercises such as box jumps and power skips, to improve his performance in this segment.
  • Sled Push, Rowing, and Farmers Carry: These segments were slower than average, suggesting strength training, particularly lower body and grip strength, could be beneficial. Exercises such as deadlifts, kettlebell swings, and farmer's walks could be incorporated into Ben's training regimen.

Race Strategies

Ben should start with a controlled pace in the initial running segment to conserve energy for the later stages of the race. This approach will help in maintaining a more consistent performance throughout the race.

Given his strength in running, Ben should aim to gain time in the running segments and strive to minimize time lost during strength and transition segments. Regular practice of transitions between exercises can help to reduce the time spent in the Roxzone.

Finally, focusing on proper form and technique during strength segments can help to improve efficiency and speed, and reduce the risk of injury. Regular strength training and conditioning, particularly for the identified weak areas, will further enhance overall performance.
