Overall Performance
Jeroen Van Der Velden’s performance in the 2024 Amsterdam Hyrox race was commendable, placing him in the top 47% overall and top 53% in his age group. His overall time was 01:33:08, showing a strong capability in strength-focused segments, particularly with impressive results in the Sled Pull and Farmers Carry. However, his overall running time was slower than average by 04:36, indicating a potential area for improvement. The athlete began with a strong pace, evident in Running 1, but seemed to slow significantly as the race progressed. This suggests he may have started too fast, leading to fatigue in later running segments. Jeroen displays a hybrid profile with a strength bias, excelling particularly in power-based exercises but needing improvement in endurance running.
Segments to Improve
- Overall Running Time: Jeroen’s total running time was slower than average. To improve running efficiency, incorporating interval training and tempo runs into his routine could help enhance speed and endurance. Specific drills such as hill sprints and fartlek training can improve cardiovascular capacity and running economy.
- Running Segments (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8): These segments showed a decline in pace. Focus on compromised running scenarios where running is done after strength exercises. Integrate workouts such as strength conditioning followed by immediate running to mimic race conditions.
- Sandbag Lunges: This segment lagged behind. Jeroen should focus on lunge variations with added resistance to improve muscle endurance. Exercises such as walking lunges, Bulgarian split squats, and step-ups can be beneficial.
- Burpees Broad Jump: While only slightly slower than average, refining form can save time. Focus on explosive power in the jump and efficient transitions between movements with plyometric training.
Race Strategies
- Start Pace Planning: Begin the race at a more conservative pace to conserve energy for later stages. Implement pacing strategies in training to find a sustainable race pace.
- Transition Efficiency: Although Jeroen showed proficiency in the Roxzone, further improvement can be achieved through practicing quick transitions between exercise zones. Employ drills that simulate race transitions to enhance this skill.
- Strength-Endurance Balance: Incorporate workouts that balance strength and endurance to maintain a competitive pace throughout the race. Use circuit training to build both attributes concurrently.
- Mental Fortitude: Develop mental strategies to deal with fatigue, such as visualization techniques and positive self-talk, which can be crucial in maintaining performance during challenging segments.
