Overall Performance:
Tom Bellwood gave a commendable performance in the 2024 Birmingham HYROX race, finishing in the top 34% of overall athletes and the top 40% of his age group. His total running time of 00:43:06 was a notable achievement, finishing 00:06 faster than the average time. This suggests that Tom leans more towards a runner profile, exhibiting strength and speed in the running segments.
However, his performance varied across different segments, showing room for improvement in specific areas. Notably, his Roxzone time was slower than average, indicating that transitions and rests between exercise zones could be optimised.
In terms of pacing, Tom started slower than average in Running 1 but managed to keep a consistent pace and even ran faster than average in subsequent running segments. This indicates that Tom has a good understanding of his running capability and was able to pace himself effectively throughout the race.
Segments to Improve:
- Burpees Broad Jump: This segment showed the most room for improvement with a time that was 00:02:20 slower than the 25th percentile. To enhance performance in this area, Tom could incorporate more plyometric exercises into his training routine to build explosive power and improve his jump distance. Drills like box jumps, jump squats, and long jumps can be effective. Additionally, practicing the burpee form can also help improve efficiency and speed during this segment.
- Roxzone: Tom's Roxzone time was 00:01:52 slower than the 25th percentile, suggesting that he could improve his transition times and overall fitness. Interval training could be beneficial here to improve cardiovascular fitness. Additionally, practicing quick transitions between exercises can help cut down on rest times.
- Sled Pull: Tom's Sled Pull time was slower than average. To improve this, he could incorporate more strength training, specifically focusing on his back and leg muscles. Exercises such as deadlifts, squats, and rows could be beneficial.
Race Strategies:
Going forward, Tom should continue to maintain his steady pacing strategy for the running segments to conserve energy for the more physically demanding exercises. However, he should aim to start a bit faster in the initial running segment to gain an early advantage.
During the race, focusing on efficient and quick transitions between exercises can help to significantly reduce his Roxzone time. This includes preparing for the next exercise during the final moments of the current one, as well as optimising his rest times.
Lastly, for the Burpees Broad Jump and Sled Pull segments, focusing on correct form and technique can help improve efficiency and speed. Practicing these movements outside of the race environment can help build muscle memory, leading to improved performance on race day.
