    Du stehst auf, machst deine Morgenroutine, arbeitest deine To-Do-Liste ab, gehst abends ins Gym – alles auf Autopilot. Klingt produktiv. Aber wann hast du das letzte Mal gefragt: Bringt mir das eigentlich noch was? Die Verhaltenspsychologie kennt ein Phänomen, das kaum jemand auf dem Schirm hat: Zombie-Routinen. Gewohnheiten, die so tief eingeschliffen sind, dass sie automatisch laufen – ohne dass du merkst, dass sie längst nichts mehr beitragen. Deine 5-Uhr-Aufsteh-Routine, die dich müder macht. Dein Journaling, das zum sinnlosen Ritual geworden ist. Dein wöchentliches Team-Meeting, das niemand braucht. In dieser Folge zeige ich dir, wie du deine Gewohnheiten auditierst, Zombie-Routinen entlarvst und mit dem Quarterly Habit Audit ein System bekommst, das dafür sorgt, dass deine Routinen für dich arbeiten – nicht gegen dich. **Hier geht es zum Werbepartner dieser Podcast-Folge**: https://selbst-management.biz/podcast-partner Links: - Kostenloser Mangold-Academy Bonus-Bereich: https://my.mangold.academy/anmeldung-vip-bereich-2/ - Goodie des Monats: https://my.mangold.academy/courses/einstieg-in-das-selbstmanagement/lessons/goodie-des-monats/ - SelbstmanagementRocks Masterclass: https://selbst-management.biz/selbstmanagement-rocks-masterclass/ - Mein LinkedIn Profil: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomasmangold/

    SPONSORED BY NURP Nurp is algorithmic trading designed specifically for busy professionals who don't have time to watch markets. Check out start.nurp.com/doctors  to learn more. ---- What do Canadian football, the trad wife movement, lip filler, gym culture, and climate change have in common? Somehow, Tim and May connect them all in another unfiltered episode of BS Free MD. The conversation kicks off with a nostalgic tribute to the Canadian Football League before taking a detour into bizarre climate headlines, including whether changing temperatures could threaten bird populations. From there, Tim and May dive into one of social media's hottest debates: the rise of the "trad wife." Are traditional family roles making a comeback, or has the internet turned the concept into something it was never meant to be? The hosts unpack the cultural shift, discuss why healthy partnerships don't fit neatly into internet labels, and share their own perspective on balancing careers, marriage, and family. Then it's time for one of Tim's favorite rants: cosmetic filler. From duck lips and body dysmorphia to plastic surgery trends and why saying "no" can be the best medical advice, they examine how social media and unrealistic beauty standards continue to reshape expectations. The episode wraps with an entertaining discussion on gym culture, attention-seeking fashion trends, and why confidence doesn't have to come with an exaggerated filter. As always, expect humor, strong opinions, and plenty of tangents along the way. In This Episode Why Tim still believes Canadian football is more entertaining than the NFL The surprising climate change story involving bird populations What the "trad wife" movement actually means—and what it doesn't Healthy marriages versus internet stereotypes Social media's influence on beauty standards Why facial filler can quickly go too far Body dysmorphia, cosmetic procedures, and knowing when enough is enough Gym fashion, attention, and modern fitness culture Tim's thoughts on plastic surgery versus injectable fillers A reminder that confidence doesn't come from social media trends Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Isaac Vallie-Flagg: From Street Fights & Jackson's Gym to UFC, Strikeforce & Sobriety | MMA History Podcast #340Fellow historians, this is one that should never have happened. Isaac Vallie-Flagg had no wrestling pedigree, no karate or boxing background—just a tough kid from Michigan who liked to fight. He moved to Albuquerque, trained under Tate Fletcher and Alberto Crane, then walked into the golden era of Jackson's MMA and somehow made it all the way to Strikeforce and the UFC.In this raw, unfiltered episode, Isaac sits down with the MMA Detective Mike Davis and Joey Venti and lays out the full story. He talks about the early street-fight days and the punk-rock New Mexico scene, then describes what it was like training as the perpetual nail alongside Nate Marquardt, Mike Van Arsdale, Melvin Guillard, Leonard Garcia, Cub Swanson, Joe “Daddy” Stevenson, Cowboy Cerrone and the rest of the Jackson-Wink murderer's row. He recounts the chaotic Dominican Republic card where the entire lineup got stiffed, his Strikeforce debut against Brian Melancon (the hardest hitter he ever faced), the career-defining win over Gesias “JZ” Cavalcante, the legendary Yves Edwards fight, and going to war with Takanori Gomi while deep in opiate withdrawal and cutting weight at the same time.Isaac is brutally honest about the physical and mental hell of kicking opioids while making weight for UFC fights, the difference between a hard partier and a true addict, and what recovery has taught him about grace, trauma, and becoming a better man. This is not a prison interview—it's a hard-earned happy ending from a fighter who refused to quit.If you've ever wondered what the real “punk rock days” of MMA looked and felt like inside one of the greatest gyms of all time, this episode delivers.Like, comment, and subscribe for more interviews and deep dives into the men who built this sport.

    Get Chris Cooper's book “Founder, Farmer, Tinker, Chief” free on Kindle this week (Jul. 27-31): https://twobrain.co/4gLvR5E If you're a gym owner who feels stuck, you probably don't need more information. You need focus.In this episode of “Run a Profitable Gym,” Two-Brain founder Chris Cooper joins CEO John Franklin to break down the four distinct phases of the entrepreneurial journey, based on his book “Founder, Farmer, Tinker, Chief.”Chris explains why the Founder phase is about narrowing to one clear product and getting good at conversations and invitations—not diversifying or over-investing in space and staff. He shares the story of nearly running out of money and being told by his own mentor that he wasn't ready for marketing yet.From there, Chris and John walk through the Farmer phase (buying back your time instead of hiring your clone), the high-risk Tinker phase (where entrepreneurs often blow up what's working by chasing shiny new ideas), and the Chief phase, where the goal shifts from personal wealth to building a legacy that multiplies impact beyond any one person.Chris also shares real stories from his own journey, including the mentor who talked him out of opening a coffee shop and the moment that reshaped how he thinks about giving back.Tune in to figure out exactly which phase of entrepreneurship you're in right now, and what to focus on to move forward.Several of Chris' other books are also free on Kindle this week, including “Start a Gym” and “Millionaire Gym Owner.” Grab your copies via the link below.

    Lured Up Podcast 401: The Highest Bidder Live Streamed on -7/21/2026 Publish Date - 7/23/2026 Listen to this episode ad free on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/PokemonProfessor  The dust has finally settled from the 10th Anniversary Event in NYC and GO Fest Global Weekend. We have a ton to unpack and discuss as the community has had some time to respond to the madness that was the last week. It was pretty wild to see the community turn on itself in anger. The creators were up first to feel the flames as it seemed the Community Ambassadors would come out untouched. Then… The Times Square Mewtwo hit eBay and things went nuts. People forgot about being mad at creators and turned on the CAs and their communities. RaspberryWeiner broke some news about finding out the in-game name of one of the sellers who even came forward to apologize and say that he didn't know selling a Pokémon on eBay was against any rules. It was wild to watch as the internet delivered another reason for the X-mob to dislike the event. We stuck around NYC to play GO Fest Global, where we put ourselves under a massive challenge to walk all the way from Bryant Park in Manhattan to Industry City, Brooklyn and back. Let's just say our dogs were barking and we were just about out of gas when we got back to Bryant Park. Huge shout to LeBro for making the journey with us to Brooklyn. We were very surprised by the gameboard at the Community Celebration, as it seemed to be 90% Gyms. You could feel the lack of Lures as the spawns seemed pretty thin. It was a pretty cool setting, but definitely was a departure from the park style play that we have seen before. Scopely Explore did have a first this week, and that was the announcement of their first make up event under their new name! In all seriousness, the community is buzzing in a positive way about the make up GO Fest Raids being a global make up. They are even throwing in a bunch of Raid passes to boot.The Scopely Effect is becoming more and more noticeable, and we are loving that even when parts of the community can feel a little rough around the edges, the masses online still seem to be rowing in the same direction as the developer. The pacing and event calendar for the rest of the month into August is already looking packed. With Ultra Unlocks, new Shinies, and plenty of things to do, there is definitely no rest for the weary. The focus on IRL play with a consistent spattering of very remote friendly events have created a nice balance for different types of Trainers to come together.  Before we wrap up we have a few listener emails and a voicemail to play, with SerAmanda bringing a banger of a protip in the settings. We close with our guiding principal of the episode being: Everyone is playing a different game. Trainers with different goals and process can meet on the same gameboard and navigate an event together, even if they are concerned with very different things. In life, we interact with people every day and never really know what they can be going through.  Ultra Unlock: 10th Anniversary Edition GO Pass: August Gigantamax Rillaboom Max Battle Day Summer Marathon: Arctic Embers Fire and Ice Hatch Day Ultra Unlock: Water Festival Ultra Unlock: Starmie Super Mega Raid Day GO Wild Area 2026 LuredUp@PokemonProfessor.com | Voicemail and SMS: 732-835-8639  Grab some merch: https://crowdmade.com/collections/professornetwork  Connect with us on multiple platforms! https://linktr.ee/LuredUp  Hosts Ken Pescatore Adam Tuttle Writer and Producer Ken Pescatore Executive Producer  Xander Show music provided by GameChops and licensed through Creative Commons ▾ FOLLOW GAMECHOPS ▾ http://instagram.com/GameChops http://twitter.com/GameChops http://soundcloud.com/GameChops http://facebook.com/GameChops http://youtube.com/GameChops http://www.gamechops.com Intro Music Lake Verity (Drum & Bass Remix)  Tetracase GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/ https://soundcloud.com/tetracase  https://soundcloud.com/MegaFlare0 Break Music National Park Mikel & GameChops GameChops - Poké & Chill http://smarturl.it/pokechill https://twitter.com/mikel_beats Outro Music Vast Poni Canyon CG5 & GlitchxCity (Future Bass Remix) GameChops - Ultraball http://gamechops.com/ultraball/  http://soundcloud.com/cg5-beats https://soundcloud.com/glitchxcity Pokémon And All Respective Names are Trademark and © of Nintendo 1996-2026Pokémon GO is Trademark and © of Scopely ExploreLured Up and the Pokémon Professor Network are not affiliated with The Pokémon Company, Game Freak or Nintendo. #pokemon #pokemongo #podcast Learn more about your ad choices.

    Want to run an in-gym event that brings in new members and keeps them around? Download our step-by-step Intramural Open guide. Are the CrossFit Games dead? And should gym owners even care?In this episode of “Run a Profitable Gym,” Two-Brain founder Chris Cooper joins CEO John Franklin to discuss the state of the Games, as it heads into its 20th year.Chris has been on both sides of this conversation. He worked for CrossFit HQ, recently interviewed the brand's new CEO Bruce Edwards, and made the decision to reaffiliate his own gym.He walks through how the Games shifted from a small community meetup into an expensive, sponsor-driven spectacle, and why that shift disconnected it from the everyday members who make up most affiliate gyms.John puts Chris through a four-question report card on whether the Games still market the brand, measure real fitness, bring new people into CrossFit and keep members in affiliates longer.Chris' answers point to one consistent theme: Gyms don't need to wait on HQ to fix this.The pair dig into what's actually working elsewhere, including HYROX, Spartan Race and Street Parking meetups.They explain how gym owners can borrow those ideas to build their own intramural events, using the same repeatable workouts each year so members can track real progress and feel proud of what they've accomplished.Tune in to hear Chris's take on where the Games went wrong, and how any affiliate can create that same “peak moment” feeling for members without needing CrossFit HQ to get it right first.LinksIntramural Open GuideGym Owners UnitedBook a Call0:00 - Are the CrossFit Games still helping gym owners?0:51 - What the CrossFit Games were originally built for3:11 - When the Games stopped helping affiliates7:21 - What gym members are actually looking for10:20 - How the Open lost its original purpose14:42 - Chris Cooper grades the CrossFit Games20:25 - What Chris would change at CrossFit HQ25:12 - Why fitness festivals outperform competitions29:09 - How to reinvent the CrossFit Open for your gym34:23 - Why Chris re-affiliated with CrossFit

    Welcome to HALO Talks, where host Pete Moore sits down with Rich Drengberg, CEO of EoS Fitness and a seasoned leader in the fitness industry. In a rare podcast appearance, Rich shares his journey from Gold's Gym SoCal to transforming EoS into a powerhouse of high-value, low-price gyms across the Sunbelt. Listeners will get an inside look at EoS's disciplined growth, the importance of industry relationships, lessons from private equity partnerships, and why knowing your brand's identity is crucial, straight from someone who's helped steer one of the fastest-growing health club chains in the country.  Whether you're an operator, investor, or fitness enthusiast, this episode offers invaluable insights on building teams, scaling strategically, and staying ahead in a competitive landscape. Regarding chosing the right partner when looking to sell, Rich states, "We were in a great situation when we went to market that we didn't have to sell, and we were able to kind of pick who we wanted to partner with. And it was an interview process both ways. And because of that, we were able to have our cake and eat it too." Key themes discussed Transition from Gold's Gym to EoS Strategic and disciplined growth decisions Importance of experienced teams and industry relationships Private equity influence and operational mindset shift Real estate strategy and anchor tenant positioning Staying true to brand identity amidst trends Partner selection and aligning with TSG for expansion A Few Key Takeaways 1. The Power of Sticking to a Clear Identity: Staying true to the company's vision and brand identity was emphasized as vital for long-term success. EoS avoided "chasing every trend" and only adopted changes that matched their strategic direction, which helped them avoid diluting their brand and losing their core audience 25:23. 2. Disciplined, Focused Growth Strategies: EoS's growth was marked by a disciplined approach to new markets and acquisitions. Opportunities were critically evaluated, and only those fitting their model (right location, box size, and alignment with EoS values) were pursued. This sometimes meant saying "no" to enticing deals that didn't fit the vision 05:10. 3. Mentorship and Learning from Experience: Rich credited much of his development and EoS's success to mentors like Bob Giardina and Bruce Bruckman. Their guidance helped shift his mindset from operating a handful of gyms to building a scalable platform, and highlighted the importance of focusing on real estate and bigger picture growth rather than getting bogged down in minor operational optimizations 12:29. 4. Building Relationships is Key to Expansion: Entering new markets and securing prime real estate depended heavily on building trust and relationships with landlords, developers, and REITs. Early on, EoS was not the first choice for many landlords, but through perseverance and relationship-building, they became a preferred anchor tenant 15:28. 5. Industry Know-How Over Outsider Expertise: The episode stressed that having a team with deep industry experience ("gym rats" as described) was critical. EoS's management came from fitness, not coffee chains or hardware stores, enabling them to make better, faster decisions pertinent to the unique demands of the fitness business 17:26.

    Earlier this summer, there was some incredible progress in cervical cancer. Women who have been vaccinated against the human papillomavirus (HPV) now have an almost zero chance of dying from cervical cancer before the age of 30. But does that mean women will no longer need cervical screening? Dr Jo Morrison, a consultant gynaecological oncologist from Somerset NHS Foundation Trust, joins James Gallagher and resident GP Dr Margaret McCartney to discuss. The government has announced school dinners will soon be overhauled in England, in order to reduce the amount of salt, sugar and fat, and boost the amount of fibre and nutrients offered to schoolchildren. James is joined by Dr Maria Traka, head of the food and nutrition national bioscience research infrastructure at the Quadram Institute in Norwich, to find out what the new dinners will look like. He also pays a visit to the Food Museum in Suffolk, where curator Katherine Bridges takes him on a trip through the decades, to see whether school dinners are healthier than ever. Also, have you seen the buzz surrounding creatine on social media? Gym-goers promise it can help you get stronger and build bigger muscles, but there is also some debate about whether it could boost your brain too. To dig into the science, James chats with Dr Damian Bailey, a professor of physiology and biochemistry at the University of South Wales.Presenter: James Gallagher Producer: Alice Lipscombe-Southwell Editor: Ilan Goodman Production coordinator: Stu Laws Sound engineer: Steve Greenwood

    On this episode, Chewy and Eugene discuss 10 annoying Jiu-Jitsu myths. Strength doesn't matter and technique conquers all. The only way to get good at BJJ is to train really hard. Being a black belt means you are a good person. Being a black belt means you are more disciplined. Gym owners are "money-grubbing evil-doers" who only want to extract money from their members. You need brand new never before seen techniques to be good at BJJ. Training sport Jiu-Jitsu will not be effective in preparing you for a self-defense scenario. Helio Gracie was a sick and frail individual who invented leverage. The Gi is boring. BJJ competitors should be paid millions of dollars like other athletes.

    In this episode, we sit down with Joe Pepe Jr., CEO of IGNITE Fitness Holdings, one of the largest Planet Fitness area developers and a second-generation leader in the health club industry. Born into a family deeply rooted in fitness entrepreneurship, with his father tracing back to the industry's early days, Joe shares his path evolving from a family-owned gym business to building one of the most successful Planet Fitness franchises in the country.  Pete and Joe also touch on how early risk-taking, embracing disruptive business models, and leveraging private equity fueled explosive growth from just a handful of clubs in Connecticut to over 100 locations across the U.S. and Canada. Joe also discusses the importance of company culture, strategies for scaling teams, the role of marketing, and the impact of industry partnerships, along with a look ahead at opportunities in acquisitions and market development.  On the topic of 'front desk to leadership' and the importance of investing in people, Pepe states, "There are so many stories of people that came in as a minimum wage, front desk worker and now have progressed three, four, five layers on. It's great to see, brings you a lot of joy to see people develop that are truly bought in and enjoy being part of something bigger." Key themes discussed Family legacy in health club industry Early adoption of Planet Fitness model Transition to private equity ownership Franchisee network's role in best practices Marketing strategies for continuous growth Building and developing internal talent Expansion through acquisitions and greenfield development A Few Key Takeaways 1. Legacy and Early Adoption of Planet Fitness: Joe shared how his family were early movers in the Planet Fitness brand, converting legacy clubs into some of the first Planet locations in the early 2000's. Their willingness to switch from big-box gyms like World Gym and Gold's Gym to the Planet Fitness model positioned them as pioneers and benefitted from the new brand's explosive growth. 2. Scaling with Private Equity: He described the pivotal shift from a family-run operation to a private equity-backed enterprise. Bringing on investors enabled them to accelerate growth, hire specialized talent, and reach over 100 locations through both acquisitions and new builds, something not possible without significant capital and operational rigor. 3. Power of the Franchisee Network: This episode also highlighted how valuable the Planet Fitness franchisee network is for knowledge sharing and best practices. Regular meetings, councils, and conferences foster collaboration and have been instrumental for operators like Pepe to learn, share, and refine their approaches. 4. Continuous Investment in Marketing: A key component of Planet Fitness's success is relentless, ongoing marketing at both national and local levels. Planet does not throttle back on ad spending after grand openings, but instead works year-round to attract first-time gym goers and continue fueling growth, maintaining brand visibility and saturation. 5. Growth through M&A and Internal Talent Development: Joe discussed the increasing opportunities in acquiring independent gyms and legacy operators as a growth channel, emphasizing respectful integration and understanding of sellers' perspectives. Additionally, internal development and promotion, from front-desk to leadership, remain core values, creating a culture of advancement and loyalty.

    Welcome to a special edition of LIFTS x Athletech, where we explore the future of fitness, wellness and human performance. Recorded LIVE at Athletech in New York, hosts Matthew Januszek and Mohammed Iqbal are joined by five industry leaders to discuss how the world's leading fitness brands are adapting to one of the fastest periods of change the industry has ever experienced. As consumer expectations evolve and AI, education, technology, partnerships and community continue to reshape the market, today's operators are rethinking everything from group fitness and member engagement to talent development and business strategy. Joining the discussion are Joella Hopkins, Executive Vice President, Group Fitness at EōS Fitness; Lauren Maffei, Senior Director of Business Development & Partnerships at Purpose Brands; Warren Heffelfinger, CEO of ISSA; Pete Moore, Advisor to the Health, Active Lifestyle and Outdoor (HALO) sector; and Natalia Karbasova, Founder of FitTech Club. Joella explains how EōS has reinvented group fitness by bringing boutique-style experiences into the HVLP model, why live instructors remain essential, and how innovative programming is attracting younger generations. Lauren discusses how strategic partnerships are helping brands extend beyond the gym, strengthen member loyalty and create new revenue opportunities. Warren shares why the industry's biggest challenge isn't a shortage of trainers but developing better ones, why soft skills matter more than ever, and how AI is transforming education rather than replacing coaches. Pete introduces the HALO sector, explains why fitness should think bigger than traditional gyms, and shares his vision for creating stronger partnerships across the entire health and wellness economy. Natalia explores the global FitTech ecosystem, startup innovation, investment trends and the technologies shaping the future of health and fitness. Together, they explore how the industry's leading brands are responding to rapid change and what operators can do to build more resilient, innovative and future-ready businesses. In this episode, we cover: How the best fitness brands are adapting to industry change The evolution of group fitness and boutique experiences Strategic partnerships that drive growth AI, education and the future of coaching Why soft skills remain fitness's greatest competitive advantage The rise of the HALO sector and cross-industry collaboration Emerging FitTech trends and investment opportunities Practical leadership lessons for fitness operators
