Welcome to Episode Two of The Purple Patch Podcast, Performance in a Time-Starved Life.
In this episode, Matt issues the challenge to shift our lens of
training success away from simply “punching the clock” or
achieving a certain number of training hours per week.
By using a real-life case study from a Purple Patch athlete, Matt illustrates the corrosive
effects of trying to do too much without the proper training focus
and balance. It's a story that may sound all too familiar.
There is no magic pill for success. You still need to train and
your journey still requires massive commitments, but the lessons of
this case study and the changes this athlete made will help you
repave your path to your own brand of excellence.
Throughout the episode, Matt weaves in his own unique
takeaways, including the four magic words the comprise a successful
training recipe.
Finally, he takes a closer look at one vital element of training in
his weekly "Dixon-ary Word of the
Week" Segment. This week, that word is:
Fueling.
Enjoy this foundational episode. We think it's one you come back to a lot during your performance journey.
