Improvement Plan

Based on our analysis, here are the focus areas for improvement. The goal is to determine how quickly the athlete could improve on some stations and where is the path of least resistance to improve his time.

The percentile rank is the current position of the athlete compared to the competition. It goes from 0 to 100, where 0 is the best and 100 is the worst. It show the potential improvement for each station. The athlete should focus on the stations with the highest potential improvement and the biggest duration.

A big improvement in the Farmer's carry station will not be as impactful as a small improvement in the wall ball station for instance. Just click on a station to see how easy it will be to improve and how important it is to focus on it during training.

Overall Performance


Ben Buchanan performed well in the 2023 Anaheim Hyrox race, finishing with an overall rank of 288 out of 433 athletes, placing him in the top 66% of participants. In his age group (35-39), he ranked 53 out of 72 athletes, placing him in the top 73%. His overall time for the race was 02:21:38, with a total running time of 01:25:49, which was 23:28 slower than the average.

Looking at his splits, Ben's best running lap was 00:06:51. His strongest segments were the Ski Erg and Sled Push, where he performed faster than the average. However, he struggled in the running segments, particularly in Running 2, Running 3, Running 4, Running 5, Running 6, Running 7, and Running 8, where he was slower than the average.

Segments to Improve


1. Running Segments (Running 2, Running 3, Running 4, Running 5, Running 6, Running 7, Running 8):
Ben's performance in these running segments was slower than the average for his finish time. To improve his running performance, he should focus on specific training strategies and techniques:
- Interval Training: Incorporate interval training sessions into his weekly routine, alternating between high-intensity sprints and recovery periods. This will help improve his speed and endurance.
- Hill Training: Include hill repeats and uphill running in his training to build leg strength and improve his ability to tackle inclines during the race.
- Tempo Runs: Integrate tempo runs into his training, where he maintains a challenging, but sustainable pace for an extended period. This will enhance his endurance and pacing abilities.
- Form Correction: Work with a running coach to analyze and correct any inefficiencies in his running form, such as stride length, arm swing, and foot strike. This will optimize his running mechanics and minimize energy wastage.

2. Roxzone:
Ben's time spent in the Roxzone was 00:13:18, which was 02:03 faster than the average. While this indicates efficient transitions, it also suggests that he may have rested more than necessary. To improve this segment, he should focus on improving his overall fitness and reducing transition time:
- Conditioning Workouts: Incorporate high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and circuit training to improve overall fitness, stamina, and recovery between exercises.
- Transition Drills: Practice transitioning quickly between exercises or stations in his training sessions. This will help him reduce the time spent in the Roxzone during the race.

Strategies


- Pacing: Ben should focus on maintaining a consistent and sustainable pace throughout the race. It is essential to avoid starting too fast and burning out early. He should aim to maintain a steady effort level and save energy for the later stages of the race.
- Strategic Rests: While minimizing time spent in the Roxzone is important, it is also crucial to strategically plan brief rests during exercises that allow for it. This will help him recover and maintain performance during the entire race.
- Mental Preparation: Developing mental resilience and a positive mindset is vital for a successful race. Ben should practice visualization techniques and positive affirmations to stay focused, motivated, and determined during challenging segments.
- Pre-Race Nutrition and Hydration: Paying attention to proper pre-race nutrition and hydration is crucial for optimal performance. Ben should consult with a sports nutritionist to develop a personalized plan that meets his specific needs and supports his energy requirements during the race.

Overall, Ben Buchanan showed strength in certain segments of the race, such as the Ski Erg and Sled Push, but there is room for improvement in his running performance and overall fitness. By implementing the suggested training strategies, drills, and techniques, he can enhance his performance in the identified areas and achieve better results in future races.
