Purple Patch Podcast

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! In this episode, we’re discussing what it takes to perform at your best—not just in the moment but over the long term. Today’s topic is one that is often overlooked yet absolutely essential for sustained high performance: reflection. Whether you're an athlete aiming for an IRONMAN podium or a business leader managing high-stakes projects, reflection is a crucial component of the high-performance machine. It connects important traits such as adaptability, coachability, resilience, and the ability to prioritize what drives results. You might be working hard, but without reflection, you’re not necessarily working smart or focusing your efforts where they will drive you toward your goals. IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon emphasizes that reflection helps identify what works and what doesn't, ensuring continuous improvement rather than just short-term success. Dixon uses the example of Jesse Thomas, an athlete who won six consecutive Wildflower Triathlons but sometimes performed poorly despite winning. He also shares a business case where an executive's project failed, but reflection helped identify areas for improvement. Dixon concludes that reflection is crucial for adaptability, resilience, and long-term growth, urging listeners to incorporate it into their routines.

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! Our mission is to empower individuals to reach their athletic and full potential. Today, we’ll discuss injuries— a common frustration among endurance athletes—and how to reduce your injury risk as you prepare for the upcoming season during the off-season. While this time can feel like downtime, it’s actually a crucial opportunity to build resilience and prioritize health. Injury prevention is a key factor for success, as avoiding risks leads to the consistency needed for high performance. What you do in the coming weeks will lower your chances of setbacks without requiring excessive effort; approach it smartly and pragmatically. IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon outlines four simple strategies to implement. This episode features the story of Sarah Piampiano, a professional triathlete who overcame a major injury by focusing on sleep, nutrition, stress management, strength training, and tissue resilience. Dixon outlines four key areas for injury prevention: developing healthy habits like sleep and nutrition, incorporating strength training, building tissue resilience through consistent, low-intensity running, and adopting a holistic approach that combines these elements. He stresses the importance of consistency and patience in building a resilient body to prevent future injuries.

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! As winter approaches, it's the perfect time to talk about indoor riding. When the weather gets rough, we take our rides indoors on the bike trainer. It's a great way to stay in shape and improve your outdoor riding. This week on the PurplePatch Podcast, we want to share some tips to help you maximize your training on the bike trainer. Instead of focusing on the usual technical aspects of bike training like FTPs and critical power, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon shares practical skills to make you faster, smarter, and a true craftsman on the bike. Matt takes us through the benefits and limitations of indoor riding to gain a better understanding of what indoor training offers and what elements of training can only be gained outdoors. Matt covers the different smart trainers available on the market, the three P's of indoor training: posture, pedaling, and power, terrain management, and the importance of end of range work and neurological conditioning. Our goal is to help you get faster and have a great time doing it. If you have any questions or want to continue the conversation, feel free to reach out to us at info@purplepatchfitness.com. If you'd like personalized coaching on the bike trainer, we offer complimentary sessions where I can coach you through a workout. It's a two-way video platform, so I can see your metrics and provide feedback. Just reach out to info@purplepatchfitness.com to set up a session. It's absolutely free, and there are no strings attached. Episode Timestamps 00:00 - 04:52 - Welcome and Episode Introduction 04:52 - 39:35 - The Meat and Potatoes: Weaponize Your Bike Trainer This Winter Matt Dixon 00:00 I'm Matt Dixon. Welcome to the Purple Patch podcast. The mission of Purple Patch is to empower and educate every human being to reach their athletic potential. Through the lens of athletic potential, you reach your human potential. The purpose of this podcast is to help time-starved people everywhere integrate sports into their lives. Matt Dixon 00:32 And welcome to the Purple Patch podcast, as ever, your host, Matt Dixon. And yes, it is getting that way. Winter looms, and therefore, we thought it was a good time to revisit indoor riding. Yes, it is the time of the year when we don't brave the elements and instead get inside, sit on the trainer for hours on end, daring and dreaming about when the sun comes out again. Look at the indoor bike trainer. It's a great workout, but it is important as it represents a great opportunity for you as a bicycle rider to uplevel your outside riding. If you do it right. There is no short-term success in improving your bike riding. But what I go through today is about as close as you can get to amplifying how you ride your bike outside by sitting inside, no matter how strong you are, no matter how tough you are. This is an opportunity for me to educate you today on how to weaponize the use of your bike trainer so that you can get more speed out of that toughness, that strength, and that fitness. Let me repeat that. What I want to try and do today is open up a guide where no matter how tough you are, how fit you are, or how strong you are, you get more speed out of it. That's our mission. That's why we talk about weaponizing the bike trainer. I'm not going to bore you today with the old, sterile stuff that you read in the media. I'm not going to talk about FTPS and critical powers and all of that. I want to give you some actionable skills that are accessible and that will yield a speed return greater than any fitness development you can gain. If you put the lessons into practice, you will get faster. You will also get smarter. You'll become a craftsman on the bike. And by the way, that's really fun because when you go out and train with your buddies, they're going to be very annoyed, and they're equally going to be amused at your newfound speed. What's he taking? Don't worry about that. Just get better at building your...

Welcome to the Purple Patch podcast. This new mini-series will reflect on over two decades of coaching top endurance athletes and executives. Join IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon as he’ll draw lessons from these individuals to help you achieve high performance in various aspects of life. These high-performance lessons will be integrated into monthly episodes over the next year. The first episode focuses on Australian triathlete Sam Appleton, who exemplified the trait of controlling the controllable. Despite a challenging two weeks leading up to the 2018 Ironman 70.3 World Championships, including illness and a nagging Achilles injury, Sam maintained a positive mindset and executed his race strategy. He placed 6th overall, demonstrating the power of focusing on controllable factors for high performance. Dixon emphasizes that this mindset applies beyond sports, improving resilience and reducing anxiety in athletic and professional settings.

Welcome back to the Purple Patch Podcast! This is the final part of our three-part series on setting up a great off-season for athletes. We recommend checking out the first episodes of the series. In episode one, we discussed the importance of the Off-Season and the need for a real break while also laying a strong foundation for the upcoming year. In the second episode, we delved into the specifics of our approach at Purple Patch, building on last year's successes while making necessary refinements. We received positive feedback on the first two episodes along with some phenomenal questions from athletes like you. In this episode, Matt shares the top 10 questions we received over the last two to three weeks about the off-season. He breaks the questions down into three categories: Big Picture Questions, Off-Season Training Questions, and Nutrition and Body Composition Questions. Matt covers a range of topics from health and energy improvements to maintaining weight during the off-season, rest days, training volume, and the use of AI in training programs. We believe you will find this episode not only fun and interesting but also empowering, and hopefully, it will help you plan your off-season and set yourself up for improved performance.

Welcome back to the Purple Patch Podcast! This is part two of our three-part series on the Off-Season. We've reimagined the Off-Season to help you thrive and achieve success in the upcoming season. This week, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon discusses the Purple Patch Off-Season, focusing on a comprehensive 18-week training plan that extends into the initial 6 weeks of the following year. This period, which we refer to as Q4, starts in October for most athletes and continues through November and December, with the off-season mindset extending into the first six weeks of the next year. Matt emphasizes the importance of structured training and smart Off-Season practices to prevent burnout and reduce the risk of injury. His approach covers swim, bike, run, strength, and supporting habits, and while our discussion will be centered around triathletes, the principles and approaches apply to all endurance athletes and fitness enthusiasts. If you missed last week's episode, we encourage you to listen to it first, as it lays the groundwork for a successful Off-Season. Our goal is to provide foundational information to guide your Off-Season planning. Committing to a well-structured Off-Season offers several benefits, including long-term motivation and decreased risk of burnout and injury. By investing in a proper Off-Season, you can set yourself up for a successful and fulfilling season ahead.

A year ago, we at Purple Patch decided to completely reimagine our Off-Season training. We wanted to address the question of how to deliver a block of training for our athletes that is crucial for their long-term development and results, while also providing them with flexibility and a much-needed mental and physical break. We recognized the importance of taking a break after a strenuous season, while also understanding the necessity of consistent training for athletic performance. As we approach the Off-Season once again, we want to offer insight into how we approach this important part of the athletic journey. This week, we are beginning a three-part series focusing on Off-Season training for athletes. In this episode, we will revisit the value, importance, and role of the Off-Season, emphasizing the need to take a real break while also establishing a strong foundation for the upcoming year. In the second episode, we will delve into the specifics of our approach at Purple Patch, building on the successes of last year while making necessary refinements. Lastly, we will hold a Q&A session in which IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon will address all of your questions about Off-Season training. We want to stress the significance of this series to all athletes. Even if you typically take an unstructured break after your race season, we hope to persuade you to consider a different approach for your Off-Season training. It's essential for setting the stage for your next big event, and we hope to provide valuable insights that you can integrate into your training program. We look forward to sharing this journey with you over the next few weeks and encourage you to participate by sending in your questions for the upcoming Q&A session.

Welcome to another episode of the Purple Patch podcast. This week, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon explores the concept of Child’s play. What do children have to do with our pursuit of high performance in work, life, and sport? It turns out, quite a bit. While it may sometimes seem like kids do nothing but go to school, say the wildest things, and create messes around the house, the study of child development holds valuable lessons. Understanding how children grow into high-functioning adults can parallel the importance of sports and physical challenges in our own lives. These experiences can help us perform better under pressure in all aspects of life. Today's discussion about high performance will draw inspiration from the playful and physical activities of children that many of us remember from our childhoods. The aim is to rejuvenate your spirit of adventure and inspire you to either rediscover the joy in your current pursuits or take on an entirely new challenge.

We have the Ironman World Championships in Nice for the women, the Ironman World Championships in Kona for the men, the Ironman 70.3 World Championships in New Zealand, and the T100 series ramping up with the championship approaching for the pros. Additionally, we have the New York Marathon, the Santa Cruz Half Ironman, and a series of Ultra Trail runs. Despite these big looming events, we want to take a moment to encourage high performers to pause, step back, and reflect. In this week’s episode, we take a look back at the past year to see the big picture of how we made it to this point. Almost a year ago, we emphasized the critical role of the off-season in achieving significant performance gains in the year ahead. This week we want to report on the impact of this approach on Purple Patch athletes. First, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon revisits the key goals of the off-season and focuses on what a successful off-season looks like.

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! This week, we're continuing with part two of our Q&A session with Scott Tindal, the co-founder of Fuelin. Fuelin is a personalized sports nutrition coaching program and app for triathletes, and they are our partner and go-to resource for everything related to nutrition, race fueling, and hydration. Scott is a fantastic resource in the world of professional sports and nutrition. As part of Fuelin, he is now helping time-starved amateurs of all levels improve their performance, health, and ultimately the results they achieve - not just in sport, but also in life. Last week, our questions were focused on race fueling and hydration, specifically for endurance athletes. This week, we are shifting our focus and putting sports-specific nutrition and hydration aside. Instead, we will be asking Scott a series of questions centered on overall life performance.

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! This week, we're exploring the topic of mature athletes. These athletes are just as ambitious and goal-driven as younger ones, but they often have a deeper and more meaningful purpose beyond winning races and setting personal records. We received a great question from a podcast listener who has participated in triathlons for over 20 years. Despite still being ambitious, she now has three kids and is seeking advice on how to approach the sport from a new perspective and adjust her training. This is a common challenge for many athletes, not just in triathlon. We've dedicated a whole show to addressing this question and hopefully, we provide helpful guidance for any mature athlete looking to optimize their mindset, strategy, and training for performance gains. The episode is divided into three parts. The first part discusses "perspective" and building a new relationship with sports. It provides context for understanding how to adjust your approach to sports and how it may differ from your younger and more competitive years. Part two delves into training practices. What may have worked for you in your 20s as an athlete may not be as helpful for you now. We outline the key elements of training that mature athletes should focus on to achieve the best return on investment. In part three, we discuss habits all athletes should adopt to support training, with a special emphasis on habits of amplified importance for mature athletes seeking to stay healthy and competitive for years to come.

Welcome to the Purple Patch podcast. In this week's episode, we'll be discussing the traits that deliver high performance. Our inspiration for this episode came from two sources. Firstly, the incredible achievement in the recent Tour de France, where Mark Cavendish clinched his 35th stage victory. His story embodies passion, joy, and perseverance despite facing numerous obstacles and setbacks. Following a serious injury last year, he made a remarkable comeback and secured a long-awaited win. The second catalyst was a question received by Matt from an athlete he coaches. This question stemmed from the athlete's observation of the Olympic swimming trials, with the Olympics right around the corner. Watching the returning athletes, many of whom were making their second or third Olympic appearance, left the athlete in awe and sparked thoughts about the mindset of a winner. These seasoned athletes seemed to possess remarkable toughness and composure. Given the stories of comebacks during this year's trials, the athlete wondered if there were lessons that everyday individuals could apply to their own lives. As it turns out, there are valuable insights to be gained. You don't have to be an elite athlete to draw inspiration from their mindset and the traits that contribute to their success. In this episode, we'll explore the mindset of high-performance individuals like Mark and discuss the traits that underpin their achievements. Drawing from over 20 years of experience working with elite athletes and organizational leaders, Matt has identified these traits and believes they can be cultivated and developed to enhance our performance in any area of focus.

Welcome to the Purple Patch podcast. This week, our show focuses on performance. Purple Patch is a performance coaching organization, and IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon is well-known for coaching successful Ironman athletes and inspiring strong individual performances. Surprisingly, the backbone of his success has been the use of a team approach. Ironman is an extremely individual sport, but team and community have been essential to Purple Patch’s sustained success over the last two decades. In this week’s episode, Matt discusses the power and importance of a team approach for individual performance success. He uses a recent Purple Patch training camp in South Carolina as proof of concept. Despite the attendees being vastly different athletically and having individual goals, they came together in just a few short days, created a shared purpose, and emerged as a high-performing team. Matt shares his key takeaways from the training camp and his years of coaching experience to highlight the elements of teamwork that lead to improved individual performance. We believe you can extract lessons from this story for your journey, whether you aim to improve individual performance in sports, organizational leadership, or any other focus.

We are six months into the year and hopefully in a better position than when we started. Now is the time to look up, find that buoy of progress, take a breath, and realign ourselves before moving forward. This week on the Purple Patch podcast, we REWIND and revisit an important episode about assessing your performance so far and redefining your goals as we enter the second half of the year. At the beginning of the year, we took time to reflect, plan for the future and set Big Hairy Audacious Goals (BHAGs). Now, we have reached the halfway point of the year. Most of you hit the ground running with ambitions and lofty goals, but how did they pan out? Are you nailing your goals? Are you thriving in your performance journey? Is it fulfilling? Where can you improve or shift your approach? It is essential to come up for air midway through the season and execute some big-picture thinking about the work you have been putting in, the purpose of it, and where you want it to take you. On this week’s episode of The Purple Patch Podcast, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon presents a framework to help you evaluate your progress and performance over the past six months to set yourself up for a strong finish to the year. Matt lays out a process for identifying the areas within your control where you have excelled, the lessons you have learned, and opportunities for improvement, to help you develop a plan of action to enhance future performance. Matt’s framework centers on three questions that all athletes should consider asking themselves. Do you only have a destination or do you have a path? Is your current approach or program integrated into life? Am I getting athletically smarter? This episode is an opportunity to pause and reflect on the purpose of your athletic journey and strip down the elements of your process to determine what works, what doesn't, and what you plan to do about it.
