Mosse Felix Hyrox Result

Overall Performance:

Felix, you clocked in a solid performance at the 2024 Stockholm Hyrox, finishing with a time of 01:39:01, placing you in the top 80% overall and 84% in your age group. That’s no small feat! Your pacing strategy seemed a bit aggressive; you started strong with your first running lap at 00:04:34, which was a full 29 seconds faster than average. While it’s great to feel the adrenaline, it’s essential to find a balance to maintain that energy throughout the race.

Based on your total running time of 00:49:26, which is 59 seconds slower than average, it appears that you might have a stronger running profile. That means we should focus on enhancing your strength performance to balance out your hybrid capabilities. Remember, "You are what you repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." — Aristotle.

Segments to Improve:

Here are the segments that need a bit of love:

• Sled Push: Clocking in at 00:04:12, you were 50 seconds slower than average. The sled push is a powerhouse move that requires not just strength but also technique. Focus on your form—keep your posture upright and engage your core. Try exercises like heavy sled drags and leg presses to build strength. Consider doing pushing drills once a week, ensuring you’re incorporating various angles and stances.
• Wall Balls: At 00:08:53, you were 59 seconds slower than average. This exercise is all about explosiveness and endurance. Incorporate thrusters into your routine to build that explosive power. Additionally, practice your wall ball technique by focusing on your squat depth and explosive throw. Try sets of 10-15 reps with a heavier ball to build strength.
• Farmers Carry: Although you were faster than average here, there's room for improvement in your endurance. To enhance this segment, focus on core stability exercises like planks and carries with varying weights. Building grip strength is also crucial; try dead hangs and farmer’s walks with heavier kettlebells.

Race Strategies:

During the race, it's essential to manage your pacing better. Start strong, but be mindful of your energy levels. Use strategic breathing techniques to keep your heart rate in check. When transitioning between exercises, aim to maintain a steady rhythm instead of rushing into the next segment. Remember, every second counts, but so does endurance!

Utilize your roxzone effectively—consider it your pit stop. Use this time to hydrate and mentally prepare for the next challenge. When you push that sled, visualize the finish line and remind yourself why you started this journey. Remember, "The only way to define your limits is by going beyond them." — Arthur C. Clarke.

Felix, you've got the drive, and you've shown that you can hang with the best of them. Focus on the suggested areas for improvement, and consider integrating these strategies into your training.
