Segments to Improve:
- Roxzone: Sam's Roxzone time is notably slower than average, indicating that he could improve his transition times and overall fitness. To enhance his performance in this area, Sam could focus on improving his cardiovascular endurance with exercises like interval training, and practice quick transitions between exercises.
