Episode 340: Navigating the Holidays

Purple Patch Podcast

IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon discusses Purple Patch's Black Friday deal, offering a 50% discount on the first month of the Tri Squad program with a 30-day money-back guarantee. He emphasizes the importance of maintaining performance during the holidays while enjoying family time. Dixon advises prioritizing key work and training sessions, integrating them into daily life, and allowing flexibility in exercise modalities. He stresses the importance of not regressing, maintaining critical habits like hydration and sleep, and being creative with workouts. Dixon also highlights the need for a re-entry plan post-holidays to avoid stress and ensure a smooth transition back to regular routines.

In today’s podcast, listers can learn to establish a Sunday Special planning routine before and after the holidays to get organized. Ramp back into training and work gradually after the holidays, rather than trying to catch up. Build a "buffet" of flexible training options to do during the holidays based on available time and access.

Matt Dixon sets the stage for the holiday guide, acknowledging the challenges of maintaining training consistency during the holidays. He aims to reduce anxiety and frustration by providing actionable strategies to balance training and holiday enjoyment. The guide is divided into three parts: mindset, planning, and actionable tips. Matt emphasizes the importance of embracing and enjoying the holidays while maintaining performance.
