"I don't want to just compete, I want to win." Is there anything worse than devoting years of your life to a pursuit, and never getting the result you wanted? If you're a serious athlete, you train hard most days of the week - days when other people are out partying, watching TV, or hanging out doing other "relaxing" things. You have no interest in that, because you'd rather be training. The fact is though, we all need validation that our training, our effort, is working. It has to be worth it. No one wants to train for years and always come mid-pack when they compete. You want to be a contender, you want to be the one with a huge smile on your face at the end of the day because you made the podium. Sure, competing is its own reward, but results are even better. But how do you get there? How do you make that jump to the elite level? You could do what everyone else does - try a new coach, a new program, train more, train harder, go on a stricter diet. These methods are just tactics, and they're not effective, because most of the time they just end up with you burning out, getting sick or even worse, getting injured. Imagine what it would feel like if your next competition finished with you standing on the podium. All that effort, all that training, strict eating, discipline, it's all paid off. Instead of you wondering how the people at the top do it, now other people will be wondering that about you.What you probably don't realise is that people at the elite level are playing an entirely different game to you. While everyone else is focused on their diet and training program, they've had theirs in place a long time ago and don't even think about it anymore. They've moved on to pulling all the other levers that will bring far bigger performance improvements.I've competed at national level in two different sports, coached a world record holding powerlifter and also been an instructor in the army. I'm also fortunate enough to call former Olympians and national champions as my friends. I worked out what those levers were a long time ago, validated them against what others at the top were doing, and perfected them. I'll show you how to do it too... How to go into a competition knowing you've had the ultimate preparation. How elite performers organise their life to ensure they're always in top condition to train. How to structure your training so you continuously improve, without burning out. How to manage your weight to stay in your weight class. How to safely cut weight and refeed before competition. How to not choke. How to bring it all together on the day. You'll find all of this and much more in Building the Elite Athlete. 30 years' worth of knowledge in competition, training, nutrition, psychology, recovery and more presented in a way to maximise your performance without just training harder. It's easy and accessible to read with no filler. The next time you compete, you'll do it knowing that you've left no stone unturned.

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. The Well-Built Triathlete gives equal weight to training and workouts, recovery and rest, daily nutrition, and functional strength. Dixon considers the demands of career and family and the ways different personality types prefer to approach training. 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.

'Why don’t young athletes in sport just quit?’ Starting with this question and drawing on existential philosophy, phenomenology and hermeneutics, Talent Development, Existential Philosophy and Sport seeks a deeper understanding of the experience of being a talented young sportsperson striving to become an elite athlete. As an alternative to conventional approaches to talent development governed by a worldview of instrumental rationality, the book introduces key ideas from educational philosophy to describe talent development through the concept of elite-Bildung. It pursues an existential understanding of developing in sport as a process of freedom, self-transcendence, striving for excellence and building up habits. The book highlights a range of ambiguous and intriguing existential phenomena – most prominently wonder, question, expression, humour and repetition – and reveals an existential layer of meaning within talent development in sport, which can facilitate the process of becoming an elite athlete and give young athletes a number of reasons not to quit. By deepening our understanding of performance and development in sport, and the process of becoming an elite player, this book is important reading for any serious student or researcher working in the philosophy of sport, sports coaching, sports development, sport psychology or applied sport science.
