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 Spinosa Matthew's 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.

Overall Performance
Matthew Spinosa demonstrated a solid performance in the 2024 Melbourne Hyrox race, ranking within the top 41% overall and top 43% in his age group. His strength-based exercises were notably strong, with top percentile ranks in the Ski Erg, Sled Push, Sled Pull, Rowing, and Wall Balls. However, his total running time was slower than average by 4:50, indicating an area for improvement in his running performance. The pacing analysis suggests that he might have started at a reasonable pace, as initial running segments were close to average, but experienced significant slowdown in the fifth running segment, which could indicate fatigue. Matthew appears to have a hybrid profile but leans more towards strength than running.
Segments to Improve
- Run Total: Matthew's overall running time was significantly slower than average. To improve, he should focus on enhancing his aerobic capacity and running endurance. Training Strategies: Incorporate interval training (e.g., 400m repeats at a pace faster than race pace with short recovery intervals) and tempo runs to build speed and stamina. Additionally, practice long, steady-state runs to build endurance.
- Roxzone: Time spent in the roxzone was significantly slower, indicating prolonged recovery or transition phases. Training Strategies: Implement transition drills focusing on quick recovery and efficient movement between exercise zones. Practice maintaining composure and breathing in transitions to minimize rest time. Circuit training that mimics race transitions—such as moving from a cardio machine to strength exercises—can enhance this area.
- Sandbag Lunges: While not drastically slower, there's room for improvement. Training Strategies: Focus on strengthening the lower body and improving lunge form. Exercises such as Bulgarian split squats, goblet lunges, and weighted lunges can enhance strength and efficiency in this segment.
- Burpees Broad Jump: Matthew's time was slightly slower than optimal. Training Strategies: Improve explosive power and endurance by incorporating plyometric exercises like box jumps and tuck jumps. Work on burpee form and efficiency to minimize time spent in this segment.
Race Strategies
- Pacing: Focus on maintaining a consistent pace throughout the race rather than starting too fast and slowing down. Use a heart rate monitor to stay within target zones and avoid early fatigue.
- Transition Efficiency: Practice transitions in training to reduce roxzone time. Visualize and rehearse each transition to ensure quick and smooth movements between exercises.
- Nutrition and Hydration: Ensure adequate nutrition and hydration before and during the race to maintain energy levels and prevent performance dips in running segments.
- Race Simulation: Incorporate race simulations in training to prepare for the specific demands of Hyrox events. This approach helps in identifying weaknesses and refining strategies.
By focusing on these areas, Matthew can improve his overall race performance, balancing his strength prowess with better running efficiency and transition speed.
