A word from RoxCoach - Your AI Powered Trainer

Overall Performance:

Gemma Hesslewood demonstrated an impressive performance at the 2024 Birmingham HYROX competition, finishing within the top 21% of her age category. While she excelled in numerous areas, there are a few segments where improvement is needed.

When considering her profile as a fitness athlete, Gemma's strength stands out more than her running. Her total running time is slower than average, indicating a need for enhanced focus on this aspect of her training. However, it's important to note that her pacing appeared consistent throughout the race, as she didn't start too fast or too slow compared to the average.

Segments to Improve:

  • Overall Running: Despite her consistent pacing, Gemma's overall running time fell behind the average. Focusing on endurance-building exercises like tempo runs, hill repeats, and long, slow distance runs could greatly enhance her running performance. Speed work, including intervals and fartlek training, can also help improve her running speed.
  • Wall Balls: This segment had the most significant time loss. To improve, Gemma should incorporate wall ball drills into her training routine. These could include high-rep sets for endurance and low-rep sets with heavier weights for strength. Practicing the proper form is also crucial - she should ensure she's using her legs to drive the movement and keeping her chest up.
  • Roxzone: The slower time in the Roxzone indicates a need for faster transitions and improved overall fitness. Incorporating circuit training with minimal rest between exercises can improve her conditioning and transition time. Additionally, practicing transitions between different exercise types could help shave off valuable seconds in the roxzone.
  • Sandbag Lunges: For improvement in this segment, Gemma should increase the frequency of lower body strength training, specifically focusing on exercises that mimic the movement of lunges. Weighted lunges, step-ups, and squats are excellent ways to build strength and endurance in the relevant muscle groups.

Race Strategies:

Moving forward, Gemma should consider implementing these strategies during her races:

  • Proper Pacing: While her pacing was consistent in the last race, aiming to start a bit faster could help improve her overall running times. She should ensure not to start too fast to avoid burnout.
  • Efficient Transitions: Minimizing rest time and making transitions more efficient can save significant time, especially in the Roxzone. Practicing transitions during training can help make them second nature during races.
  • Strength Training: As her strength segments were some of her best, continuing to capitalize on this strength while improving running times could help improve her overall standing.
