Segments to Improve
Running: The total running time was notably slower than average. To improve:
Endurance Training: Incorporate long, steady-state runs and interval sessions to build aerobic capacity and improve pace.
Speed Work: Engage in track workouts like 400m repeats to increase speed and efficiency.
Compromised Running Drills: Practice running immediately after strength exercises to mimic race conditions.
Burpees Broad Jump: While slightly faster than average, there's potential for improvement:
Technique: Focus on explosive power through plyometric exercises like box jumps and squat jumps.
Efficiency: Work on minimizing transition time between jumps for a more fluid movement.
Sled Push: Although faster than average, further gains could be made:
Strength Training: Include leg press and squats to develop more pushing power.
Form: Practice maintaining a low, stable position to optimize force application.
Race Strategies
Pacing: Begin the race with a moderate pace to conserve energy for later segments, especially the running laps following strength exercises.
Transition Efficiency: Practice quick transitions in training to reduce Roxzone time. This will involve rehearsing moving swiftly between different exercise zones.
Nutrition and Hydration: Develop a race-day nutrition plan to ensure optimal energy levels throughout the event, focusing on hydration and quick-digesting carbohydrates.
