In this episode of the Fitness + Technology Podcast, Bryan O'Rourke shares his panel discussion from FIBO's Future Forum, "A Respectful Disagreement on AI & Its Hype Cycle." Moderated by Hans Muench, Bryan is joined by Pablo Viñaspre of FitnessKPI and Marcin Obel of Qodeca for an honest conversation about what's working in AI, what's falling short, and what fitness operators should actually be paying attention to. Listeners will gain practical insights, candid perspectives, and a discussion that moves beyond the buzzwords surrounding artificial intelligence. If you're evaluating how AI fits into your business strategy, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

Im April war ich mit meinem Mann auf der FiBo. Wir machten einen Kurzurlaub in Köln, ließen es uns gut gehen und sind einige Male zum Essen gegangen. Dieses Wochenende war wie verhext. In verschiedenen Locations hat es mit der Kommunikation einfach nicht geklappt. - Unser Lieblingsrestaurant hatte unsere Lieblingsspeise von der Karte genommen. Wir wollten woanders hin. Ich reservierte telefonisch einen Tisch, wir gingen hin, standen dann aber trotzdem nicht auf der Liste der Personen, die einen Tisch reserviert hatten. - Wir bestellten 2 Gerichte, bekamen aber nur eines. - Die Abbestellte Soße war trotzdem auf dem Burger. - Ein leckerer Cocktail konnte nicht mehr nachbestellt werden, weil eine Zutat aus war. - Ein anderer Cocktail wurde unter falschem Namen gebracht – es war Gott-sei-Dank der Richtige. - Wir wollten zahlen, aber es war weit und breit keine Bedienung zu sehen. Was war da los? Hatten wir so schlecht kommuniziert? Unsere Kommunikation war eigentlich gar nicht so schlecht. Rein theoretisch war alles klar und fast wie aus dem Lehrbuch. Wir sagten unsere Bestellung, und sie wurde von der Bedienung wiederholt. Es waren auch wirklich echte Menschen, die uns bedient haben. Sie haben die Bestellung dann entweder aufgeschrieben oder in ein Handy eintippten. Ich merkte: Wirklich bedient zu werden ist etwas ganz anderes, als eine Bestellung auf den Tisch geknallt zu bekommen. Geklappt hatte es bei keinem einzigen unserer verschiedenen Restaurant- oder Barbesuche. Damit es in Ihren Revisionsprüfungen besser klappt, als mit meinen Bestellungen, geht dieser Podcast auf zwei Auszüge aus meinem Buch „Erfolgreiche Prüfungsprozesse in der Internen Revision“ ein. (Die genannten Seitenzahlen beziehen sich auf die 2. Auflage.): - Allgemeines zur Vermeidung von Missverständnissen (S. 39) - Vermeidung von Missverständnissen bei der Vereinbarung von Maßnahmen (S. 189) Ich wünsche Ihnen viel Spaß beim Zuhören und erfolgreiche Prüfungsprozesse!

Es gibt Ecken in der Stadt, da hatte man mehr oder weniger begründet Sorge und Ängste vor. Wenig begründet, wenn einem nix passiert ist. Mehr begründet, weil mal was passiert ist. Mit unbeirrten Fahrten im Nachtbus. Im Hier und Jetzt wäre Laura gerne eine, die mit einer großen Erkenntnis viral geht und oft kopiert wird. Wie dem Spruch, dass es auf der FIBO in der Proteinhalle nach (nett gesagt) Pups riecht. In Ernährungssachen reichen sich die beiden die Hand. Simon stellt nämlich fest, dass die Kochlust und Laune auch nicht kommt, wenn man einen Freund hat. Und mit was verbinden die beiden eigentlich den Ort Küche? Ist das die Wurzel allen Übels?

Die FIBO 2026 ist Geschichte und es ist Zeit ein Fazit zu ziehen. Wie betrachten Michi von Bodylab24 und Alex von HPN die Messe? Was hat ihnen gefallen und was nicht? Das und mehr hört ihr in dieser neuen Podcast Folge!

We're back from FIBO.After spending time inside one of the biggest fitness events in Europe, we wanted to sit down and talk through what actually stood out — not just what looked impressive in the moment, but what we think holds up once you step back into a real studio.Because events like this can be exciting, but they can also be overwhelming. There's a lot of energy, a lot of innovation, and a constant stream of things that promise to be the next big thing.Some of it is genuinely interesting... and some of it, not so much.In this episode, we're sharing what we felt was thoughtful, what didn't quite land for us, and how we're making sense of it all after having a bit of distance from the noise.We talk about the trends that seem to be growing, the areas where we think the industry is moving too fast, and where the human side of coaching still really matters.If you're a teacher or a studio owner, this is less about what you should copy, and more about how to think clearly when you're exposed to so many ideas at once.Because not everything that looks impressive at a big event translates into something meaningful in your day-to-day work. Thank you to this season's sponsor, OfferingTreeSimplify your pilates business with OfferingTree's all-in-one platform.

Viele Kinder und Jugendliche bewegen sich zu wenig. Sportmedizinerin Christine Joisten von der Deutschen Sporthochschule Köln sieht Eltern in der Pflicht: Rollenvorbilder seien sehr wichtig, etwa bei Alltagsaktivitäten wie Treppensteigen. Von WDR 5.

Die Lufthansa ersetzt ihre Regionaltochter Cityline durch eine neue Airline und setzt damit stärker auf Kostensenkung und Flexibilität. Für die Beschäftigten bringt der Umbau jedoch Unsicherheit. Chinas Wirtschaft wächst stärker als erwartet und wird zunehmend zur Konkurrenz für deutsche Unternehmen. Ein EuGH-Urteil stärkt zudem die Rechte von Spielern bei illegalem Online-Glücksspiel. Die Fitnessbranche wächst trotz steigender Beiträge. Das zeigt sich auch auf der Fibo in Köln.

Before FIBO: What We're Looking For (And Questioning)We're heading back to FIBO this year, and before we go, we wanted to take a moment to talk through what we're actually paying attention to this time around.If you've ever been to something like FIBO, you know how overwhelming it can be. There's so much happening at once — new ideas, new equipment, new concepts — and it's very easy to get caught up in what looks exciting in the moment.We felt that last year. There was a lot that was inspiring, but also a lot that made us pause and question what we were really looking at.So this episode isn't a recap, and it's not about listing trends. It's more about the lens we're bringing with us this time.We're talking about what we're hoping to find, what we're a little more skeptical about, and how we try to filter all of that through the reality of teaching, working with real clients, and running a studio.Because not everything that looks impressive actually translates into something meaningful long term.And at the end of the day, that's really the question we're interested in — what actually holds up once you leave the event and come back into your own space?We'll come back after FIBO and share what we found, what surprised us, and what we're still questioning. Thank you to this season's sponsor, OfferingTreeSimplify your pilates business with OfferingTree's all-in-one platform.

Atze meldet sich aus Kopenhagen und versucht jetzt endgültig festzustellen, warum es in seiner Jugend immer hieß: dänische Hausfrauen von hinten! Darüber hinaus steht er vor der Herausforderung, seiner Perle einen unvergesslichen Geburtstag zu bereiten. Gut, dass der Hoteldirektor mit drin hängt. Auf der anderen Seite muss man bedenken, dass die FIBO, die Fitnessmesse in Köln, nächste Woche startet und mit einem wohligen Schauer denkt unser westfälischer Hengst an diese schöne Zeit zurück. An die wilden 80er, als die Messe gegründet wurde. Mit seinem begnadeten Körper, war er damals die Nummer eins auf den Bühnen dieser gefühlsbetonten Messe.

Wie baut man ohne Fremdkapital eine der heißesten Fitness- und Lifestyle-Marken Europas auf – und das in nur sechs Jahren? Darüber spricht Host Sven Rittau mit Philip Clas, Chief Digital & Marketing Officer bei TEVEO, in dieser Folge des ChefTreff Podcasts.

Was lässt sich von TEVEO lernen, wenn es um Community, Speed und Markenaufbau geht? Und welche Wetten platziert die Brand jetzt, um die 100-Millionen-Marke anzupeilen?

This is your host, Jack Gaines. 1CA is a product of the Civil Affairs Association and brings in people who are current or former military, diplomats, development officers, and field agents to discuss their experiences on ground with a partner nation's people and leadership. Our goal is to inspire anyone interested in working the last three feet of foreign relations. To contact the show, email us at capodcasting at gmail dot com. or look us up on the Civil Affairs Association website at www .civilaffairsassos .org. I'll have those in the show notes. Today, we welcome Mick Mulroy to discuss Fogbow, his new humanitarian NGO, and their work in Gaza, Sudan, and Syria. We also discuss the growing number of veteran humanitarian organizations getting involved in some of the most distressed places on Earth. So let's get started. 00:00:57    MIC MULROY I've been to Syria several times, but I haven't been there recently and not since all of the Assad regime. So we are looking at the potential for what we as a group who supports humanitarian efforts can do in Syria. 00:01:11    JACK GAINES I hope Syria straightens out. The new government actually does build out something representative for the population and the economy, that it becomes more centrist. I have a lot of hope. I think we all should, 00:01:21    MIC MULROY have a lot of hope. I think we all should, right? It's a good thing, obviously, that Assad's... gone. I mean, hundreds of thousands of deaths are on his hands. So certainly a good thing. The question is whether the incoming crowd who took government control by force are going to be the reformers they say they are, or are they going to go back to their roots? I think the verdict is still out. We should all hope that's the case. I think the incoming or now the team that's in place is a bit more skeptical than the last. You can tell by whether they call them Jelani or Al -Shirar. That's the first indicator when I was doing my rounds on both the Hill Congress and the Trump team. I think there's criticism on just how inclusive they're going to be. But we should all hope that that is the case and that there's an election soon rather than the four years that I think they've been saying. But certainly when it comes to sections that are more related to Assad. They should be reconsidered, and we should look at what we're doing there long term. With the SDF during the defeat of ISIS, the crisis, if we pull out precipitously, both for our partners, the SDF and for the counterterrorism effort, but also our strategy against Iran and Russia to a certain extent, which right now, I think everybody would stay on their backside, especially when it comes to Syria. But when it comes to humanitarian assistance, there is a dire need, for sure. And I think that is something that a lot of groups are looking at, how they can contribute to the rebuilding of Syria and the promotion of a stable country that looks more inward. Their own people vice becoming a client state to actors don't have best interests Syrians like Russia. 00:03:10    JACK GAINES And it's interesting that with their change of government and Lebanon being able to form a government because Hezbollah has their fingers out of the pie right now. I see it as a real strategic opportunity because if Lebanon can get on its foot, Syria can get on its feet, there could be a whole sea change of policy in that region to where Iran's behaviors are balanced, Russia's behavior are balanced, the nations down there can actually rebuild and have a more stable government and a healthier international relationship. I agree with you, 00:03:40    MIC MULROY I agree with you, Derek. I think this is a very big opportunity for the United States. I use boxing analogies because I used to box. I used to coach boxing in the Marine Corps. This is a point where you see your opponent on the ropes, right? You don't back up. You go in and try to end the fight. I know we're not going to end the fight or the competition between us and Russia, but Ayoun is a partner, obviously the former commander of Lebanese Armed Forces. We have supported them for a long period of time. They were a very effective partner with us, and he was the head of it. So that's a huge opportunity right there. Iran, I think, has many strategic mistakes, and they realize that now, and they've seen it both in their major losses with leadership across the board, their capability, and of course in Syria. I mean, their corridor to fund and supply groups like Hamas and Hezbollah has been cut off, and they just don't have the platform that they have. And I think we should capitalize on that. Our policy should be... The promotion of U .S. interests, part of that, I believe, I don't know if we're going to today, is the promotion of democracy and human rights. But certainly, this is an opportunity to do both, our strategic interests and promotion of democratic values. 00:04:55    JACK GAINES With Fog Bow, you have a pretty heady team. Some folks that I've recognized from other efforts, some new. Ambassador Smith is awesome. Roger Thompson, you've got a lot of great people here. 00:05:06    MIC MULROY of great people here. 00:05:08    JACK GAINES By name only. 00:05:08    MIC MULROY name only. 00:05:10    JACK GAINES Well, Chris, he'd be right there with him. 00:05:11    MIC MULROY be right there with him. Yeah, so FABO is primarily veterans, but we have our humanitarian. And the skills that we have that I think are additive to the whole endeavor, which are air delivery. We've done that in Sudan. We've done maritime delivery in Gaza. We know Austere Logistics. We're a very small company, but we really focused on doing that. And that's why I said Roger's the MVP, right? So we have a lot of former SOF folks. We have a lot of... former special operations veterans, whose skill includes all the delivery and the planning and kind of figuring out hard problems where there's no easy solution. But Roger's done Marine Infantry, but he was also a Marine Logistics Officer. So that's why I say he's the MVP, because that's what we do essentially is logistics. Our mission accomplished, it's food delivered, people in need. 00:06:03    JACK GAINES Right. I've had a couple people on talk about the Triton Pier. Some of the challenges with prepping in Cyprus for it, putting the peer out, getting as much aid as possible out, and how the thing broke up. But similar to that, Fogbo seems to be focused on some of the harder areas to reach with aid. It's not a typical aid organization. You go into very restrictive areas that have real security challenges, and you help make sure that humanitarian effort arrives. so that people can continue to survive until conflicts, until crisis or disasters are resolved. That's a tough space to work in. And that's why we get requested to come in. 00:06:42    MIC MULROY to work in. And that's why we get requested to come in. When it comes to the pier, I would say this. We, Sam Mundy, Ricard General, you probably saw on the site, we briefed the last administration several times on the idea of bringing in aid. The Ameritimese, they came up with the JLOPS, the Joint Logistics on the Shore system. To be frank, we didn't think it was the best. Because of the sea states at the time, it could have been done a different way. But we're Americans, and by God, if the U .S. military is going to push up here from Virginia to Gaza, we're going to support it out of pocket. There's not a whole lot of countries that do something. In the United States, it did something, and it might not have been perfect, but it did still over 33 ,000 tons of food into Gaza when it's needed. So that's done, and we're still working to build facilities that can assist the storage of... Critical food aid, medical aid. For NGOs. The other point on how difficult, just to give you a highlight, in Sudan there was a very substantial population that got cut off from ground delivery of food because of that. Primarily the rainy season cut off the roads and the fighting, of course. They were out of food. And all it took was somebody who could come in there and deliver food via air in a very tightly controlled area because of the conflict. And that's where we fit in. That's de -conflicting battle space and airdrops, austere environments. That's what not just people in Fogbo, but that's what the U .S. military is pretty damn good at. So that's what we did for three months, and I think we did a lot of good. And now the situation has changed. It can get ground to leverage. But that's just an example of what we're doing. We're also looking to expand in others. And it's certainly not just about us. There's a lot of groups doing this out there. And if they see a need for our skill set, Give us a call. 00:08:35    JACK GAINES And I'll put it on the show notes as well. I'm sure this must be an adrenaline rush for a lot of the veterans to actually be out in the mix delivering humanitarian supplies, which is a great reward for the skills that a lot of people have. What kind of feedback have you gotten from your logistics teams, your pilots, your air crew, about what it's like to work for the organization? It really comes down to a mission, 00:08:56    MIC MULROY It really comes down to a mission, right? So we're all there because of mission, which is to enable humanitarian operations. We are a private company. That's why it's really incumbent on us to assist NGOs that are out there doing great work. I think the most feedback I've gotten is actually taking the skills that they learned over 20, sometimes 30 years, in our case, the U .S. military, a lot of it in conflict, and do something like this. So it's, and myself included, have really taken this mission on as important as any mission I've ever had. And that's what I hear. But of course, it isn't about us. I mean, there's other groups that are doing this, and there's certainly other groups that can do this, that get veterans that are really looking for something other than your standard jobs. This is an area where they can really have an impact really quick. 00:09:50    JACK GAINES The reason I bring it up is that I had Scott Mann on, and one of the things he really challenged with, we're all cause -based in the military. We work to a cause. We have a bigger thing we're trying to reach. And people get out. Some go to church, some start a business, some start a pizzeria or a workout joint. But some just struggle with trying to find that sense of cause and how they place it, what they can do with it. And his challenge was it drove him to suicide because he couldn't find his place in life after getting out of the military. And so that's why he looked into other things like acting and writing books and lectures and veterans of care programs. Veterans Without Orders, who does water delivery, because I want to show veterans that there are opportunities out there. We can apply that sense of cause to make a difference so that they don't feel like they're alone in this world. When I was talking to the Veterans Without Orders folks, what they found is being on the ground, a lot of the NGOs were surprised at how fast and efficient they were. They went to Haiti and some of the World Food Program folks were like, wow, how long have you guys been working together? It seems like you've been friends for years. And he's like, no, actually, We had a phone call for 20 minutes, landed, met, got on it. But we just have a common language. We understand what each other's doing. We know we're both here for the right reasons. And you just build that instant trust in order to do a mission. And that's what I assume you guys are seeing there as well. I worked pretty closely with him on the Afghan evacuation. 00:11:15    MIC MULROY I worked pretty closely with him on the Afghan evacuation. My group was called Dunkirk. We weren't a Team America Elite. We also did a lot with Scott. Because that was such a cause near and dear to their heart, that was the first. foray into humanitarian work. And I think that's stuck with a lot of them. And we're seeing a lot of that continue around the world where veterans say, oh, we can really do something here. I think that's great. 00:11:41    JACK GAINES With Kabul on the midst of collapsing, I saw a lot of veterans rallying together to figure out how to get private logistics in there, getting buses, getting private planes. One thing that I bumped into was a lot of NGOs that were desperately trying to get help because they had people that were working with aid and with state and with the military that were not represented on those lists that needed to get out of there because they were part of the cigar report or they were part of distribution and the Taliban knew who they were and they were going to come after them. My part was just plugging those NGOs in with veterans who had logistics, who had access to help them get some of those folks out. But I did notice that... Once people got involved, it's just almost like there was a light came on and said, oh, I don't have to wait for the U .S. government to order me to do something. I can actually go make a difference. I can take my skills and help be a part of the whole foreign policy scheme and actually do stuff. I can do it without having to be a part of aid or state. I can just build an NGO and do it. So I'm glad to see that splintering because I think it's created a lot of opportunities for folks. Yeah, 00:12:47    MIC MULROY Yeah, and it just doesn't need to be about... FIBO, we're just one group of many. My preference would be more about the need, and that is where we're going, right, where the need is. And then to the extent that there's a secondary is the fact that veterans can get involved. They can start their own. They can get involved with us. They can get involved with other groups. We do want to be the promoter of that concept. We get a lot of veterans out there. They need a purpose, I think. But there's also a need out there. It's on both sides of the equation. And I think... The skills that they bring to the table, they are very value -added into this arena. And we've heard that from many humanitarians, quite frankly, who have not been able to figure this out. This is something that we would have put in the too difficult category. So it doesn't need to be about our particular group. I think it should be about the need, which is growing. And on that side, there is massive crises around the world. People should care that they're starving kids in Sudan. And on top of that, the consequences. are going to be felt by everybody in the world if there is massive migration of their ability to feed themselves or their fling and conflict that make it untenable to even exist there. So these are issues that are very human issues that I think anybody, whether they're in Europe or the United States or Japan, should care about, but also because it could dramatically impact where they live because this is not something that's just going to stay contained. There are conflicts that are growing, that are perpetuated in existence. And there are, of course, climate issues. Climate's changing, and that's going to cause mass migration. And not people that are coming with their own means to support themselves. So not just taking care of the immediate need, which is food to people that are farming, but building up their ability to feed themselves has to be part of the long -term equation, or we're never going to get out of that cycle. And then we create these permanent IDK camps. and no chance of a future. So that needs to be done, but there needs to be long -term planning in the international community. I think from the U .S. perspective, I think we should lead it, but I don't think we should be it. This needs to be a joint effort by the international community. Actions are what count. So that should be a collective effort of the international community, which the United States would be a part. It'd certainly lead, in my opinion, but it needs to be much more of a collective effort. Some people... I'm just not used to seeing a lot of veterans in the humanitarians here. And there has been some like, wow, you guys are military. What are you guys doing here? And for the groups, the veterans that are out there doing it, if they're asking my opinion, I'd say just be clear. Don't worry about justifying your purpose in the humanitarian. There's never going to be too many people trying to help people around the world. So just drive on, do good work, and they'll either appreciate it or they won't. But I do hear that from other veterans that get into the area. To your point. Very few people serve in the United States, just the way it is. It's a very small group. Not to be corny, but it is a family. It's almost like there's characteristics that you just notice immediately across the services that you just have a commonality. So you talk to say, why would you think? Generally the same way, you're very mission -oriented, and that's something that's covering to a lot of people when they get with other veterans. In veteran suicide, it is a serious problem, and there are people addressing it, and I think they're doing great work. But one of the things I found, and you referenced it when it comes to Scott, is you don't have a purpose. From what I've seen, people can go downhill pretty quick. You go into a pit. And I live in Montana. I love Montana on a veterans here and coming. Some of the guys live in a pretty remote area. Some, like myself, live pretty close there. And when we do vet events, you basically send guys out to get other guys and say, yeah, I'll tell you no for an answer. They need to come in. They need to be around their people. They need to... shoot the shit and rib each other's and smoke a cigar or add a bourbon or whatever their thing is. But you got to go out there and find these guys. And some of them, they might appear to be okay, but next day they're not. 00:16:49    JACK GAINES Let me know if I have this picture right. You've created the Lobos Institute, which is kind of a training and preparation for people who want to get out and work in the humanitarian space or do outreach or work with partner nations. Outreach. to enable people to either help you with your outreach and your programs or to create their own space. And then you have Fogbo, which is kind of your operational arm where you are focusing on humanitarian assistance through Fogbo as when a filter for people who come through the Lobos Institute or other volunteers, but it's also a way for you to get into helping support others in need around the world. Is that kind of a clear way that you align this? Lobos Institute, 00:17:30    MIC MULROY Lobos Institute, three main components. One's like a think tank. where people learn and discuss issues of national security. The second part is tactical training here in Montana. So it's, as you might catch, mountain warfare, because everybody thinks winter warfare when I think of Montana. But the main effort is the enabling of humanitarian operations. And we've worked with the UN and Yemen, with the State Department in Afghanistan after withdrawal. And we're doing a lot of this with FABO in Sudan. As I mentioned, we don't do security sort of thing. It's important and there's groups to do it. That's cool. But it's not us. So my perspective, I would like to see more attention on some of these international and humanitarian crises. It's not something that exists simply on the other side of the world. And I'd like to see the extent that veterans are looking for something to do post -career, of course, military veterans, but State Department, the agency, et cetera. This is a place that I think they'll find meaning and purpose. And I think we all need that. 00:18:32    JACK GAINES Right. Crisis and disasters also attracts opportunism. I think a lot of people realize that with Afghanistan, that we're just feeding the wrong animal in a lot of ways. And that we just have to understand that with our aid and our foreign policy, that anytime that we give something, every time we build something, we also attract opportunism. And we need to make sure that when we're handling the government's business, We're doing it in the right possible way with the right checks and balances so that we're not just passing off vaccines to someone who's going to just sell them on the black market so that they can go to London and party. There's a lot to be learned from the time we spent in Afghanistan on the military side and on the diplomatic side, 00:19:08    MIC MULROY There's a lot to be learned from the time we spent in Afghanistan on the military side and on the diplomatic side, but certainly on the aid side and foreign assistance. When it comes to that, a lot of great work done by a lot of great people. But we need to take the lessons learned from that as well, because I think there's a growing concern that... The United States is the biggest donor around the world, which I think we should be proud of, but it's almost taken for granted. And a lot of it is not actually getting to the people whose it's intended to. Which my humble opinion doesn't mean we stop, it just means we get better at. That needs to be better explained to the American taxpayer who ultimately are the ones paying the bill. That's, I think it should go without saying, but I am saying it because I think there's a backlash and we don't want that to be the case. from the American people on what they view as just like an endless credit card for crises around the world from the American people without proper safeguards. And I think we need to get to a place where they feel more confident that's the case and where they feel it's aligned with our overall interest. 00:20:12    Close Thanks for listening.
