Goh Xinwei Ivanna Hyrox Result

Overall Performance

Xinwei Ivanna Goh delivered a commendable performance in the 2024 Singapore National Stadium HYROX event. She ranked in the top 17% overall and top 13% in her age group, demonstrating strong competitive capabilities. Her total running time was 2:44 faster than the average, indicating a strong running profile, with a particularly impressive performance in the Sandbag Lunges and Wall Balls segments, where she ranked in the top percentiles. However, her pacing in the initial runs was slightly slower than average, suggesting that she may benefit from a more aggressive start. Her overall profile suggests she is more adept at running, with room for improvement in strength-based segments.

Segments to Improve

• Roxzone:

  The Roxzone was significantly slower than average, suggesting potential issues with transition efficiency or rest periods. To improve this, focus on transition drills that enhance speed and efficiency between exercises.

  • Drills and Techniques: Practice quick transitions between exercises with minimal rest. Use timed drills that mimic race conditions.
  • Exercises: Incorporate shuttle runs and cone drills to improve agility and quickness.
  • Training Routines: Implement circuit training with specific emphasis on reducing rest time between sets.
• Sled Pull:

  Performance in the Sled Pull was slower than average, indicating a need for increased strength and endurance in this area. Focus on strength training and specific sled pull techniques.

  • Drills and Techniques: Practice sled pulls with varying resistance to build strength and technique.
  • Exercises: Deadlifts, bent-over rows, and rope pulls to build the necessary muscle groups.
  • Training Routines: Include progressive overload to gradually increase the weight and resistance of sled pulls.
• Farmers Carry:

  The Farmers Carry segment was slower than average, highlighting a potential weakness in grip strength and core stability.

  • Drills and Techniques: Improve grip strength with exercises like plate pinches and bar hangs.
  • Exercises: Dumbbell or kettlebell carries, focusing on maintaining posture and stability.
  • Training Routines: Incorporate farmers carries at varied distances and weights to build endurance and strength.

Race Strategies

• Start Stronger: Given the slower start in the initial running segments, consider a slightly more aggressive pace at the beginning to capitalize on running strengths.
• Optimize Transitions: Work on minimizing time spent in the Roxzone by practicing rapid transitions and reducing rest periods during training.
• Balance Strength and Endurance Training: While the running segments are a strength, balancing this with improved strength training, particularly for segments like the sled pull and farmers carry, will provide a more rounded performance.
• Pacing Strategy: Maintain a consistent pace throughout the race to prevent fatigue from affecting later segments. Consider interval training to simulate race conditions and improve endurance.
