Goh Wayne Hyrox Result

Overall Performance

Wayne Goh demonstrated a commendable performance at the 2024 Singapore National Stadium Hyrox race, finishing in the top 64% overall and in the top 57% of his age group. His ability to excel in strength-oriented segments such as Wall Balls and Sandbag Lunges highlights his strength profile. However, his total running time was slower than average, indicating that running is an area that needs improvement. Wayne's early running segments, such as Running 1, started at a reasonable pace, but there was a noticeable decline in speed as the race progressed, suggesting a pacing issue. His strategy might have been too conservative at the beginning or possibly fatigued too quickly, affecting his running performance in later segments.

Segments to Improve

• Total Running Time: Wayne's total running time was 06:05 slower than average, indicating a need for focused endurance and speed training. Implement sprint intervals and tempo runs to increase speed and stamina. Consider incorporating long runs at a steady pace to build endurance and short, intense runs to enhance speed.
• Roxzone Transitions: His Roxzone time indicates that transitions could be more efficient. Practice drills that simulate race transitions, focusing on minimizing downtime. Time yourself transitioning between different exercises to increase speed and familiarity.
• Sled Pull and Sled Push: Although Wayne performed slightly better than average, there's room for improvement compared to top performers. Focus on building lower body and core strength through exercises like squats, deadlifts, and core stability drills. Practice sled drills with varying weights to adapt to different resistance levels.
• Farmers Carry: Wayne was slower than average, suggesting a need to enhance grip strength and core stability. Incorporate farmers walks with varying weights and distances into training routines. Focus on maintaining a strong, upright posture and controlled breathing.
• Burpees Broad Jump: Despite being faster than average, optimizing technique could yield better results. Work on explosive power and agility through plyometric exercises such as box jumps and burpees with a focus on form and speed.

Race Strategies

• Pacing Strategy: Start the race at a manageable pace to conserve energy for later segments, particularly the running sections. Use the first few running laps to find a sustainable pace that can be maintained or slightly increased as the race progresses.
• Efficient Transitions: Practice quick and efficient transitions between exercises to reduce Roxzone time. Familiarize yourself with the race layout to anticipate upcoming segments and prepare mentally and physically.
• Compromised Running: Train in scenarios where running follows intense exercises to adapt to the fatigue experienced during the race. This will help maintain running form and pace, even when tired.
