Welcome to Part 2 of our 5-part Performance Base Layer Series on the Purple Patch Podcast. 

A solid foundation of physical and mental health - a strong Physiological ready-state - is essential to succeed in any arena, whether at work, as a parent, or as an athlete. This is what we call your performance base layer.

Over the next few weeks, we will showcase important episodes, each focusing on one key element of the Performance Base Layer. 

In our previous episode, we talked about the importance of endurance. In this episode, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon emphasizes the significance of strength training and explains how to incorporate it correctly into your routine. Matt sheds light on common misconceptions about strength training and the mistakes many athletes make when adding it to their training regimen. He also discusses the numerous benefits of strength training, such as avoiding major illnesses and improving your health span. This includes metabolic health, cardiovascular health, body weight management, bone health, and mental health.

It's important to note, that while we are breaking down each pillar separately, they do not stand alone. To create your performance base layer, you must focus on and adopt habits in each pillar, ensuring they work together to deliver great resiliency. It’s important to give equal attention to endurance (or movement), strength, nutrition & hydration habits, and recovery & sleep, to unlock your full performance potential. Remember, just because you're fit doesn't mean you're high-performing.
