Description
With record rain and snowfall across most of the United States, there seems to be no better time to fix our lens on the strategic application of indoor training in your performance journey. “Indoor training isn't about just replicating your outdoor sessions into a less favorable environment. It's specifically thinking about what is the appropriate training to do while you're in this environment, and also connecting that training to what you are going to be doing outdoors.” (26:54) In this episode of the Purple Patch Podcast, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon covers indoor training techniques you can use every winter to help set yourself up for success. Matt highlights 3 case studies of real, time-starved, Purple Patch athletes, all with different skill levels and aspirations, who leveraged their indoor training to build a foundation for their performance. The athletes’ stories provide examples of thinking outside of the box to focus on specific areas of your performance you can build on for the season ahead. “What you do in the winter, in the indoor training is the bedrock for the big performance gain potential that comes in the six months following. But it's not about just piling on fitness. It's about specificity.” (28:02) The case studies emphasize the benefits of optimizing indoor training as well as the pragmatic approach each athlete used to emerge with amplified athletic performance, improved health, and a refocused mindset aimed at each of their individual pursuits. Matt also shares details on how you can leverage Purple Patch resources in your own performance journey either remotely or in person via the Purple Patch Performance Center.
