Overall Performance
Matthew Banks demonstrated an impressive performance in the 2024 Birmingham HYROX race, ranking in the top half of both the overall and age group categories. His overall time was 01:35:37, placing him in the top 48% of 4107 athletes and top 42% of 320 athletes within his age group.
One key area to note is that his total running time was 00:49:13, which is 02:07 slower than average, suggesting that Matthew has more of a strength profile. His best running lap was 00:04:37, indicating that there is room to improve his running performance and pace. In terms of pacing, the data suggests that he tends to start slower (Running 1: 00:05:05, 00:10 slower than average) and then speeds up in the later segments (Running 2: 00:04:37, 00:47 faster than average).
Segments to Improve
- Running Performance: As Matthew's total running time is slower than average, he should focus on improving his running speed and endurance. Incorporating interval training, such as sprinting for 30 seconds and then jogging for 30 seconds, can help enhance speed. Long, steady runs (60+ minutes at a comfortable pace) can assist in building running endurance.
- Roxzone: His Roxzone time was 00:09:58, which is 01:57 slower than average. This suggests that he may need to improve his overall fitness and transition time. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) could be beneficial for enhancing fitness levels, while practicing quick transitions between different exercises could help to reduce the Roxzone time.
- Sled Pull and Farmers Carry: These segments were slower than average, indicating a need for strength training, particularly in the legs and grip strength. Exercises such as deadlifts, lunges, and grip strength training (like holding a barbell plate in each hand for as long as possible) can be helpful.
Race Strategies
Matthew should consider implementing the following strategies during his next race:
- Pacing: He should avoid starting too slow in the initial running segments. Conserving energy for later segments is important, but a slightly faster start could improve his overall time.
- Transitions: Less rest time and quicker transitions between exercises can greatly improve Matthew's overall time. Practice making swift switches from one exercise to the next during training.
- Strength Training: As Matthew has a more strength-based profile, continuing to build on these strengths can help to further improve his performance. However, it's important not to neglect running training in the process.
