Focus on sleep quality and aim for 7-9 hours of time in bed per night. Increase daily movement and non-exercise activity, not just relying on structured workouts. ​​They also mention in the off-season to consider stress management techniques and finding the right balance of productive stress.

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 sport into life. 00:29 Welcome to the purple patch podcast, as ever your host Matt Dixon, and today we are on part two of our coaches, conversations with Scott Tindal. Scott is the co founder of fueling, one of the preeminent influences in how athletes are fueling and hydrating their races across all endurance sports. And Scott is a pretty much a regular on the show now, and today, we're going to get back down to basics a little bit, because we're ending the year and we're all looking forward, looking to up level over the course of the coming year. And I thought would be fun to have Scott's perspective across three main areas. Number one, if you're an athlete seeking to up level your performance, what can you be doing right now to lay the foundation as it relates to eating and, as you'll find out sleeping as well. The second category I want to jump into is to gain Scott's advice and some simple application on what you should do if you are really focused on improving your body composition, some of the ABCs of that. And it turns out that you've got a lot of control on how to improve the area. And then finally, what is for Scott's perspective as it relates to longevity, making sure you're setting yourself up for the best quality of life for the years ahead. We straight outside of nutrition. There we talk about movement, sleep, stress reduction, and some key habits around both your eating and your daily hydration. It's fun packed. It's a coach's conversation, and it's really insightful. I think you're going to enjoy it. And so without further ado, I'm going to give you Scott dinner. But one small note as well, if you want to find out more about fueling, simply head to fueling.com/purple. 02:16 Patch, the team are always ready to reach out and help with any of your needs, you can also find all of the information on purple patch programming at purple patch fitness.com and if you want to have a direct connect to the team at fuel in or if you want to reach out to us directly and extend the conversation, simply ping us an email info@purplepatchfitness.com 02:36 We'll be delighted to set up a complimentary consultation. But without further ado, I give you. Scott Tindal, it is time for the meat and potatoes. 02:50 It is the meat and potatoes. So here's a question for you. Are you an athlete that is looking ahead to next year and thinking, I want to take my performance to the next level? Or perhaps you're someone that really wants to improve your body ...

    Episode 336: Reflection - Part 1
    2024/10/30

    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.

    Episode 335: Breaking The Injury Cycle
    2024/10/23

    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.

  • Episode 333: Weaponize Your Bike Trainer This Winter

    Episode 333: Weaponize Your Bike Trainer This Winter
    2024/10/17
    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 craft. Let's do it just before we get going, as now is the norm; we bring you today's show for free and promotion free. And so if while you're listening and you're thinking, Hmm, I'd like to maybe have a little bit of a taste of that, I want to continue the conversation, or maybe you have some follow-up questions. If you want to ask anything else related to today's topic, feel free to reach out. You can have a complimentary consultation where we'll chat with you about any of your questions. All you need to do is reach out to info@purplepatchfitness.com. That's the email address. Info@purplepatchfitness.com and all of our programming can be found at purplepatchfitness.com. That's the website I will say today because we are talking about the bike trainer; I would like to extend a personal invitation to you if you'd like me to coach you through a session. Our video platform is pretty special. It's pretty unique. But the nice thing about it, unlike Peloton, which is just that one too many with...

    Episode 334: Essays on High Performance (Sam Appleton)
    2024/10/16

    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.
