Segments to Improve:
- Roxzone: Darren's Roxzone time was 01:56 slower than the average, indicating a need for improvement in transitions and overall fitness.

Squats, lunges, and core strengthening exercises like planks and Russian twists could help improve his form and speed in this segment.
- Burpees Broad Jump: Being 00:23 slower than average in this segment suggests a need for improvement in explosive power and agility. Plyometric exercises such as box jumps, power skips, and broad jumps could be beneficial.
