Leanne's performance highlights her strength in the running segments, as she consistently performed faster than the average time in most of the running sections. Her total running time was 32 seconds faster than average, indicating that she has good running capabilities. However, Leanne struggled in certain segments such as Wall Balls, Running 1, Sandbag Lunges, Burpees Broad Jump, and Rowing, where she lost significant time compared to the average.

Segments to Improve

1. Wall Balls: Leanne's time in the Wall Balls segment was 02:05 slower than average. To improve in this area, she should focus on increasing her upper body strength and endurance. Specific exercises that can help include weighted squats, medicine ball throws, and wall ball shots. Additionally, Leanne should work on her form and technique in wall balls to maximize efficiency and minimize time spent on each rep.

2. Running 1: Leanne's time in the first running segment was 01:20 slower than average. To improve her running performance, she should focus on building her cardiovascular endurance and speed. Interval training, hill sprints, and tempo runs can help improve her running speed and efficiency. Additionally, incorporating strength training exercises that target the muscles used in running, such as lunges and squats, can enhance her running performance.

3. Sandbag Lunges: Leanne's time in the Sandbag Lunges segment was 00:59 slower than average. To improve in this area, she should focus on building her leg strength and stability. Exercises such as walking lunges, Bulgarian split squats, and step-ups can help improve her leg strength and endurance. Additionally, practicing proper form and technique in sandbag lunges can help minimize time spent on each rep.

4. Burpees Broad Jump: Leanne's time in the Burpees Broad Jump segment was 00:55 slower than average. To improve in this area, she should focus on increasing her explosive power and cardiovascular endurance. Plyometric exercises such as box jumps, squat jumps, and burpees can help improve her explosive power. Incorporating high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workouts can also enhance her cardiovascular endurance.

5. Rowing: Leanne's time in the Rowing segment was 00:13 slower than average. To improve her rowing performance, she should focus on building her upper body and core strength. Exercises such as bent-over rows, lat pulldowns, and planks can help strengthen her upper body and core muscles, which are crucial for efficient rowing. Additionally, practicing proper rowing technique and incorporating interval training on the rowing machine can improve her rowing speed and efficiency.

Strategies

- Leanne should focus on maintaining a steady pace throughout the race to avoid burning out early on. Pacing herself appropriately will help her sustain her performance and minimize time lost in certain segments.
- She should prioritize proper form and technique in each exercise to maximize efficiency and minimize time spent on each rep.
- Leanne should consider incorporating specific training sessions that focus on the segments where she lost the most time, such as wall balls, sandbag lunges, and burpees broad jump. These sessions can help her improve her performance in these particular areas.
- Additionally, she should work on her transitions between segments (roxzone). By improving her overall fitness and transition time, Leanne can further enhance her performance in the race.
