Additionally, practicing proper form and technique for the farmers carry, including maintaining a strong and stable core, can also enhance her performance.

Strategies

- Melis should focus on pacing herself throughout the race to ensure she maintains a consistent speed and energy level. Starting off too fast can lead to fatigue later in the race, while starting too slow can make it difficult to catch up.
- She should also pay attention to her transitions between exercise zones (roxzone) and work on improving her overall fitness and transition time to minimize the time spent in these areas.
- It is important for Melis to incorporate specific training sessions that target her weaknesses, such as interval training for improving running speed and endurance, and strength training exercises for improving strength and power in areas like sled push and farmers carry.
- Additionally, practicing the specific movements and techniques required for each segment during training sessions will help Melis become more efficient and proficient in completing these exercises during the race.
- Melis should also focus on maintaining proper form and technique throughout the race to optimize her performance and reduce the risk of injury. Regular practice and feedback from a coach or trainer can help ensure she is performing the exercises correctly.
- Finally, Melis should prioritize recovery and rest days in her training schedule to allow her body to recover and adapt to the physical demands of the race. This will help prevent overtraining and improve overall performance.
