    Oct 2 2024

    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.

    Episode 331: Off-Season Part Two – Inside the Purple Patch Approach for Off-Season
    Sep 25 2024
    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.

  • Episode 330: Off-Season Part One – the Path To Take Your Performance to the Next Level

    Episode 330: Off-Season Part One – the Path To Take Your Performance to the Next Level
    Sep 18 2024
    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. If you have any thoughts, or questions, or want to learn about our services, feel free to reach out to us at info@purplepatchfitness.com for a complimentary consultation.
