Soh Jeremy Hyrox Result

Overall Performance

Jeremy Soh delivered an impressive performance at the 2024 Singapore Hyrox event, securing an overall rank of 27th out of 1115 athletes, placing him in the top 2% overall and 5th in his age group. His overall time of 01:09:50 reflects significant competence, with particular strength in the Sled Push and Wall Balls segments. His performance suggests a hybrid profile, balanced between running and strength exercises, although his overall running time was slightly slower than average, indicating potential for improvement in his running efficiency.

Jeremy's pacing across the initial running segments suggests a conservative start, with slightly slower times compared to the average, which could indicate a cautious approach or a need for enhanced early-race speed.

Segments to Improve

• Total Running Time: Jeremy's total running time was 01:19 slower than average, indicating a need for improved running efficiency. To enhance running performance:
  • Training Strategy: Incorporate interval training sessions focusing on increasing speed and endurance. For example, 400m repeats at a pace faster than race pace, with short rest intervals, can boost lactate threshold and running economy.
  • Technique Drills: Focus on running form and cadence drills, such as high knees and butt kicks, to improve running efficiency.
• Ski Erg: Performance was 00:15 slower than average, ranking in the 89th percentile.
  • Training Strategy: Incorporate ski ergometer intervals to build both strength and stamina. Use a mix of short, high-intensity intervals and longer, steady-state sessions to improve technique and endurance.
  • Technique Drills: Focus on rhythm and power transfer from the legs to the arms, ensuring efficient energy use.
• Sled Pull: This segment was 00:31 slower than average, highlighting a need for improvement.
  • Training Strategy: Increase overall pulling strength with exercises like bent-over rows and deadlifts. Incorporate sled pull-specific workouts with varying weights and distances.
  • Technique Drills: Practice maintaining a low, strong body position, focusing on consistent, powerful pulls.
• Burpees Broad Jump: Time was 00:12 slower than average.
  • Training Strategy: Improve explosive power with plyometric exercises such as box jumps and power cleans.
  • Technique Drills: Focus on minimizing transition time between the burpee and the broad jump with fluid, continuous movements.

Race Strategies

• Optimize Pacing: Consider a more aggressive start in the early running segments to avoid falling behind the average pace, while ensuring energy is conserved for later stages.
• Efficient Transitions: Work on reducing transition times in the roxzone by practicing quick and efficient movement between exercises during training.
• Compromised Running Drills: Incorporate training runs immediately following strength exercises to simulate race conditions and improve running performance in a fatigued state.
