Throughout our coaching journey, we have shared numerous stories of success in training top-tier triathletes and C-suite executives who strive to achieve and maintain high performance in their personal and professional lives. Over two decades of coaching both groups, we have observed strong parallels in the challenges they face and the solutions to those challenges that are universally applicable. In this week's episode of the Purple Patch Podcast, Ironman Master Coach Matt Dixon highlights those elements by focusing on executives and CEOs. He delves deeper into the reasons why many of them choose to take on the Ironman Triathlon, one of the world's most challenging sporting events. How have so many been successful at adapting to the demands of training and preparation while maintaining efficiency in their professional roles? (11:27) Let's consider the typical executive - massive competing demands at work, the requirement for each of them to show up their very best every single day. All of them requiring capacity to respond to uncontrollable and unexpected events, market forces, the pandemic. And often doing all of this in the workplace, managing all of those competing demands, while also having a really engaged and very busy home and family life. So the obvious question to me is, you have a time-starved executive, who then decides to add in a journey to IRONMAN. The obvious question you always get is, how do they fit it all in? How is that possible? Matt explores these questions by sharing insights he has gained from coaching executives over the years and offering perspective on how they achieve a balance between all of their competing demands. He also examines the overall appeal of Iron Man and why it draws so many athletes to the challenge year after year. Matt highlights the benefits of pursuing such a demanding goal and the positive impact it has on every aspect of an executive's life. With compelling research to support his observations, Matt details the lessons we can all apply to our own lives, regardless of our profession or background. (38:23) If you're listening today, and you haven't started your performance journey, I'm not saying in order for you to be successful, you need to be a CEO, you need to be an executive, you need to sign up for an Ironman, none of that. But we can draw lessons from it. Because we can join the dots and realize that a journey of sport, health, fitness, whatever that means to you, is going to impact positively how you show up in life.

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.

Last week's Purple Patch Podcast discussed how organizational effectiveness maximizes the talent and hard work of high performers. Organizational effectiveness, which includes planning, organization, and prioritization, can help remove mental clutter, provide control, and ultimately lead to faster goal achievement. However, it seems that only a small percentage of the show's listeners currently have a habitual practice to drive effectiveness and manage competing demands. Based on feedback we received from the audience, it seems that most people find it difficult to plan their nutrition and hydration effectively. Whether you're an athlete striving to achieve optimal performance in sports or an individual looking to enhance your daily performance at work and in life, the nutrition aspect of your journey can be daunting. Figuring out when and how to fuel your body to meet life's demands and your athletic goals can be overwhelming. Knowing what, how, and when to eat may be challenging, especially for those who are always on the go and have multiple competing demands. On this week's podcast, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon discusses how to improve your eating habits by applying organizational effectiveness. He breaks down the process to help you avoid common phrases like "Diet" and "Weight Loss", and explains how to educate yourself on the right nutrition for your body and how to plan your meals throughout the day. Matt also shares resources that are available to you aimed at simplifying and customizing your nutrition and eating habits to fit your life, wherever it may take you.

As we approach the holiday season, it's a great opportunity to reflect on the past and plan for the future. We can take time to review the year that has passed and think about what worked well and what didn't. At the same time, we can set goals for the future and create a roadmap for transformation and self-improvement. In this episode of the Purple Patch Podcast, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon takes a look back and reviews the progress we have made during the "offseason" training phase while providing a practical plan for navigating the coming months, which we at Purple Patch call "Q1 - the build phase." Matt highlights what success looks like on a performance journey, regardless of your skill level or goals, and provides important strategies to employ during the build phase.
