What’s my XENOM score?

This article explores the challenge of predicting an athlete's score in the newly founded XENOM CrossFit competition, which features a fixed set of 10 standardized workouts. The author discusses the differences between estimating times for HYROX (a simpler sequence of single movements) and XENOM (complex multi-movement workouts like max snatch in 9 minutes or wall walk/rope climb ladders). They explain the need for accurate estimates to determine starting level, weakest splits, best division, and realistic improvement plans. The article proposes using AI and training data (e.g., from PRzilla) to predict performance on unfamiliar workouts by analyzing recent max lifts, muscular endurance, and movement patterns, rather than requiring athletes to complete a full mock race.
