Episode 313: Free Speed - Practical Strategies for Getting Faster
Matt DixonEpisode Description
Welcome to the Purple Patch podcast with IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon.
In this week's episode, Matt shares valuable insights into how athletes can improve their speed without spending more time, money, or energy than they already have. Matt believes that instead of relying solely on metrics and data, you can achieve "free speed", or "Smart Speed" as he calls it, by thinking outside the box and focusing on elements that maximize your overall performance. He covers various strategies that can help athletes improve their speed in all three disciplines of triathlon - swim, bike, and run. From counting strokes in the swim to taking walk breaks in the run, Matt's tips are practical, effective, and easy to apply. Whether a beginner or an experienced athlete, you'll find valuable takeaways in this two-part series.
Part two of our Free Speed series will explore advanced topics like racecraft, mindset, and energy management. So stay tuned!
