The Well-Built Triathlete (Turning Potential into Performance)

In The Well-Built Triathlete, elite triathlon coach Matt Dixon reveals the approach he has used to turn age-group triathletes into elite professionals.

Instead of focusing narrowly on training and workouts, Dixon reveals a more comprehensive approach that considers the whole athlete. Dixon details the four pillars of performance that form the foundation of his highly successful purplepatch fitness program, showing triathletes of all abilities how they can become well-built triathletes and perform better year after year, and considers the demands of career and family and the ways different personality types prefer to approach training. The Well-Built Triathlete includes:

• Guidelines and protocols to improve training consistency and recovery
• No-nonsense advice on triathlon nutrition, fueling, and hydration
• Functional strength tests and exercises to launch a program that builds resiliency
• Two-week sample training blocks for every phase of training as well as race prep for Olympic, Half Ironman, and Ironman events
• Workout sessions to evolve swimming, cycling, and running fitness

The Well-Built Triathlete helps triathletes apply Dixon’s approach to their season and training plan. Chapters on swimming, cycling, and running explain the most effective ways to train for each. A purplepatch section shows how triathletes can peak their fitness for long streaks of high performance.

Dixon’s holistic, whole-body approach to triathlon will help triathletes become greater than the sum of their workouts. By becoming better all-around athletes, well-built triathletes will train and race faster than ever.
