Segments to Improve:

Despite her strong performance, there are specific areas for improvement for Sandra. Her results show that the segments requiring the most improvement are Roxzone, Wall Balls, Burpees Broad Jump, Sandbag Lunges, and the overall Run Total.

• Roxzone: Sandra's Roxzone time was 01:06 slower than average, indicating a need for a better transition strategy and increased overall fitness. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) can be effective in improving transition times. It will also be beneficial to practice transitioning between exercises to ensure a smoother and faster changeover in future races.
• Wall Balls: Sandra's performance in this segment was slower than average by 00:31. Incorporating more strength and power training, particularly targeting the lower body and core, would help improve her performance. Exercises like squats, lunges, and deadlifts should be included in her routine.
• Burpees Broad Jump: Sandra's time was 00:21 slower than average in this category, suggesting a need for more explosive power training. Plyometric exercises, such as box jumps and power skipping, can help improve her performance.
• Sandbag Lunges: She was 00:24 slower than average in this segment. Strength training focusing on her lower body, core stability, and grip strength will be beneficial. Lunges with weights, farmer's walk, and core strengthening exercises should be integrated into her training routine.
• Run Total: Despite having a runner profile, Sandra's overall run total still has room for improvement. Incorporating more interval running, hill sprints, and endurance runs into her training would be beneficial. She should also consider working with a running coach to improve her running technique and efficiency.

Race Strategies:

Sandra should consider implementing the following strategies during her races for better performance:

• Start the race at a slightly faster pace, without exhausting herself too early.
• Improve her transition times between exercises by practicing transitions during training.
• Focus on maintaining a steady pace during the strength segments of the race to avoid fatigue.
• Use her strength in running to make up time, particularly in the later stages of the race.

By focusing on these key areas for improvement and implementing these race strategies, Sandra can expect to see improved performance in her future HYROX races.
