Ep. #8: Matt Jones - Endurance Paddling & Climbing Coach
Update: 2025-03-16
Description
In this episode, Chris Thomas sits down with Matt Jones out of Charleston, SC… a stand up paddle board racer, rock climber, and coach in both the climbing and paddling disciplines. Matt has an extensive background in which he’s coached athletes from all ages beginning with children and amateur adults all the way up to the professional level helping folks achieve national championships. I specifically invited him on the show because of one of his recent efforts coaching my guests, Jeff and John, from Episode 6 for the 2024 Yukon 1000. We cover so much in this episode from why any paddle athlete needs a coach, beginning with newcomers to the sport all the way to veteran champion paddlers, the essentials of injury prevention and recovery, minimal effective dose from a training perspective, how to prepare the body to be ready for a massive uptick in volume when an ultramarathon race comes around, and high versus low intensity training. There’s so much more to this chat with Matt, but I’ll let you hear it all from him in this 8th episode of the Dabbling In Paddleism Podcast…
