Purple Patch Podcast Episode 301: Three Hidden High-Value Aspects of a Training Camp Experience
We continue to kick off the year with our on-location podcasts from the 2024 Purple Patch Kona Camp. This year, we have 25 athletes who have put in some hard work and learned some valuable lessons.
In this week's episode, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon talks about the importance of training camps and what athletes gain from coming together with like-minded individuals to be coached through the experience.
Matt highlights three often overlooked components every athlete and coach should consider, as well as the main reasons why we have so many people returning to our training camp experiences year after year.
Matt emphasizes three often overlooked components that athletes and coaches should consider. He also explains how these three components are part of the main reason athletes choose to return to our training camp experiences year after year.
While training camps seem to be a retreat where athletes simply hammer their way through a training program, an effective training camp experience is much more nuanced.
Matt emphasizes the significance of training, education, skill acquisition, coaching experience, and the cultivation of practices. However, he primarily focuses on three main ideas that are fundamental to the training camp experience. These ideas not only help you succeed in sports but also provide resilience, purpose, and clarity in all of your endeavors.
We believe that investing in a training camp can be one of the best decisions an athlete or performance-minded person can make in their journey, and we hope you consider Purple Patch for your next training camp experience or your first.
