Do less, be better, be wiser

I expected this to be an esoteric podcast for gnarly endurance triathletes and others need not listen.
When I started listening I was a keen single-sport runner with an ambitious personal goal. Through incorporating much of what I heard here, not only did I meet that goal but smashed it and have transitioned to triathlon as a new pursuit.
However I’ve recommended this to friends who aren’t even sporty - why? Because so much of what he says is transferable away from sport and into other spheres. I’m also a Dr, doing a PhD and have a young family. Matt’s advice is holistic, and far from puritanical.
As a Brit I do notice his somewhat bastardised mid-Atlantic accent, and cringe at the jingle, but hey, these are prices worth paying 🧐.
I rarely give reviews, let alone 5⭐️ ones, but delighted to support and endorse this one. Keep it coming guys.

Performance at its Best

Matt Dixon is not your typical triathlon coach following the crowd and the latest fads. His mantra of ‘nailing the basics’ and looking at sport as one small part of your life is refreshingly honest - and works!

Great podcast

A ‘Wordsworth’ of the sport - you will see what I mean when you listen. Matt is steeped in process, precision and consistency. His podcast is informative, insightful, knowledgeable - go back to a lot of the earlier podcasts - there’s some really quality content to dive into, digest and try out.
Great line up of guests - varied from AGers, Pro’s, health and well-being professionals, race directors, coaches and more. His hooks ups with Tower 26 are brilliant!

Best endurance sport podcast on the internet

I’ve been listening for around 14 months every week without fail Matt Dixion is a legend and also makes me smile and sometimes laugh out loud.
Brilliant insight into technique, mindset and so much more.
I couldn’t recommend it highly enough

Golden advice

I have dipped in and out since these began and somehow he picks the right subject at the right time, delivers an authentic pep talk. I have actually cried once or twice. If you only absorb half of it you will be transformed.

Massive knowledge shared with everyone

This podcast is incredible. Matt amases so much knowledge and I can believe he shares all that with us, people around the globe that don’t know him.
As an example I’ve just listened to the episode about effective communication and it is one of the greatest podcast I’ve ever listened. Not only I will apply what I’ve learned to coaching, but also to work and life in general. Matt is a great communicator and I have recommended this podcast even to non-athletic friends. Keep up the great work!

Easily the best tri podcast

A balanced, intelligent perspective delivered in a structured, accessible and fun way, though with a baffling misuse of ‘lens’ and ‘global’

Fantastic!

Always insightful, straight forward, with a touch of humour and humility. For anyone who likes to see the synergies between business and sport, I couldn’t recommend these podcasts highly enough.

Great Advice and interesting content

I love Matt and the teams hints and advice focusing on life with Triathlon.
As an age group Triathlete looking for structure and understanding on training have added this to my regular listening list along with Triathlon Taron and Oxygen Addict.
Has helped me keep focused and a sensible approach along with a little humour.

Really informative and no BS

Meat and potatoes

Really enjoy this new podcast. Aligns with my view of training having done it the wrong way for years. Recent age grouper episode was an excellent listen and shows it’s not all about the pros!

Insights with a twist

The first couple of podcasts show great promise by the consistency of the message, the nice tones and the sticky jingles! A+++.

Matt will help you balance life and be a great triathlete

These podcasts are already excellent. Matt has an exceptional level of knowledge around helping people get the performances they are capable of and still enjoying life! It is possible. I’m so excited to hear more from a coach who has a 360 approach to training. It’s already on my “must listen regularly” list

Awesome!

I have followed Matt for quite a while and have both of his books. His philosophies are grounded in science and experience and he has a great way of explaining things. Really enjoyed the first podcast and look forward to many more!
